Arnold Schwarzenegger reminds us that he is, deep down, a right-wing Republican. Don't buy his "democratic principles" bullshit for a second as he condemns California's essential-to-pass response to Republican election rigging.

Sure in all Arnold's movies he is known to unilaterally disarm. That is what he is known for. GTFOH!

@span dangillmor Yeah, Arnold. We ARE in fact voting on this change because that’s how it’s done in a democracy. Go yell at Texas.

@span dangillmor His goal will result in the suffering and death of thousands more queer and brown people. Just like his Daddy did.

@span dangillmor Notice that he did absolutely nothing to oppose Texas' redistricting. But for California's redistricting, he's going to fight.

So it's just typical Republican hypocrisy from a typical Republican. Gerrymandering for me, not for thee!

@dangillmor
Extremely disappointing from a guy whose dad lived thru and supported the Anschluss.
Arnie a complex political beast but yep this definitely shows his allegiance to the GOP Trumps his allegiance to the republic.

@span dangillmor Or maybe he genuinely thinks Newsom's plan is not an effective way to fight Trump? Schwarzenegger is the guy who passed prop 11 to take redistricting authority away from legislators in the first place and passed prop 14 to establish open primaries in Cal. Newsom is the guy who vetoed #rankedchoicevoting and went on the Charlie Kirk show to see if throwing trans people under the bus would boost his numbers. One of these guys is an opportunistic partisan hack and it's not Arnold.
