It seems like Democrats are doing their best to outcringe each other with their bad Texas redistricting takes. Twitchy favorite Western Lensman has compiled several of them into a mini-marathon of madness. We’ve got it all: authoritarianism, the Holocaust, racism, threats of violence, and more.
Your gerrymandering (gerry-maddening?) journey begins here. (READ)
Democrats have amped up the hyperbole to stratospheric levels and thrown the rhetorical kitchen sink at redistricting effort in Texas.

Here is a compilation of the most outlandish and provocative comments they’ve managed to concoct.

Best part of the whole mess is that all they are doing is exposing themselves. Absolutely hilarious, stepped in yet another trap

The Dems have been gerrymandering for decades
— Pepperpotmary (@pepperpotmary) August 6, 2025
Yes, their moving mouths are just a spotlight on their own decades of corruption.
This video list would not be complete without Democrat Jamie Raskin. He was tasked with the tired mantra of ‘It’s a threat to Democracy!’ (WATCH)

Redistricting saves democracy -- but only when Democrats do it.
— Ser Gregor (@GregorJmacs) August 6, 2025
Observant people know that ‘It’s a threat to Democracy’ means ‘It’s a threat to the Democrat Party!’
The Democrats have dusted off two political relics to make the media rounds: Beto O’Rourke and Eric Holder. Obama’s former Attorney General says redistricting could stop future presidential elections from being certified. (WATCH)

Holder sounds like an insurrectionist.
— TanksToTweets (@TanksToTweets) August 6, 2025
That's some pretty insurrection-y and election-denial-type talk, Eric. I thought that was a bad thing.
— Ian MacConnell (@IanMaccon7487) August 6, 2025
We don’t think Democrats can hear how crazy they sound.
You knew no Democrat gaslighting campaign would skip shouts of ‘RACISM!’ Here’s former GEICO caveman Al Green using his vocabulary-word-of-the-day desk calendar. (WATCH)

Invidious, now that's a good one.🤣

Race-Baiting
— Richard Kirk (@Bbr6dgcwscKirk) August 6, 2025
It’s all so tiresome.
Democrats have rolled out violent rhetoric, but it’s laughable coming from soy-fueled DNC Chair Ken Martin. (WATCH)

Threatens assault
— Richard Kirk (@Bbr6dgcwscKirk) August 6, 2025
These threats would be more convincing coming from ousted DNC Vice Chair David Hogg.
Of course, Democrats don’t need knives when they can use their clenched fists. Jasmine Crockett promises a beatdown to redistricting Republicans. (WATCH)

The gaslighting and implied violence is a few notches higher than normal from these twisted sad sacks.
— Ironball (@Ironball_T) August 6, 2025
What the focus on Texas has done is highlight historic Democrat gerrymandering in other states.
A worthwhile battle to have.
Lies and threats? What else do Democrats have? Certainly not compelling arguments.
We promised you another dusted-off political fossil. Here’s Beto O’Rourke lending his stench of failure to ‘It’s authoritarianism!’ (WATCH)
6 Beto O’Rourke: Redistricting in Texas will mean “the consolidation of authoritarian power in America." pic.twitter.com/BO8mWjbotQ
— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) August 6, 2025
I forgot how annoying he is.
— Native Arizonan (@Santaquinian) August 6, 2025
Most people have forgotten who he even is.
Here’s Holder making a second appearance on the video list. Dems are running out of ideas, so Holder dragged out ‘It’s a threat to Democracy’ again. (WATCH)

— Western Lensman (@WesternLensman) August 6, 2025
They really need a new threat this one is getting used too much.
— JoAnn Skromme (@12Kilrea) August 6, 2025
Eventually, the Dems start repeating the same talking points.
Which brings us to Hitler. We did 'Nazi' this one coming. We jest, of course, we saw it coming. (WATCH)

Being forced to redistrict is the same as being marched into the gas chamber, you monster!
— The Alpha Cow (@Marcus_Porcius2) August 6, 2025
Fear-Mongering and Insulting Jews
— Richard Kirk (@Bbr6dgcwscKirk) August 6, 2025
Good to know they’re repeating the same keywords and threats. The fear campaign continues to grow old.
— Leonard Soares (@leonard_per) August 6, 2025
Evoking the Holocaust to counter a congressional seat redistricting effort is insane. But we’re not dealing with sane people.
One commenter says he knows what’s happening to the Democrat Party.
This is what's known as an Extinction Burst. What used to work before suddenly isn't working and libs are freaking out. They gerrymandered blue states to the maximum level and now have nowhere to go, and they know it. They feel their manufactured power slipping away.
— Professor Duke (@DukishDog) August 7, 2025
You are so right. The Democratic party may not have a future.
— Tina Baker (@TFREE569) August 7, 2025
As long as there are uninformed, impressionable, and legitimately stupid people, there will always be a Democrat party.
— Professor Duke (@DukishDog) August 7, 2025
Sadly, that’s true. And there will never be a shortage of video clips of Democrats being crazy either.
