It is a good rule of thumb that when a political party starts to argue for Gymanders as his best bet to stay in power, it is not in a position in force.
What happened in the Texas house on Friday, much more than Republicans had liked to have the hand they played.
Texas Democrats left the state to prevent a quorum in the house from blocking the Republicans to be able to pass the Gerrymandered card, conceived in the direction of Donald Trump, the Republicans hope that they will deliver an extra five house seats.

When Democrats still did not return on Friday, Texas House speaker Dustin Burrows spoke to the situation by saying:
Members, can I have your attention? The role has been called and no quorum has been established. Yesterday, Attorney General Ken Paxton and I took action to domesticate the bourgeois arresting faith in the state of Illinois, where they are looking to make them enforceable beyond the State Lines of Texas. I expect that suits will appear in other states. The chairman has contacted the sergeant at Arms of the Illinois Huis van delegates who ask for their direct help with the return of absent members.
I have been constantly in communication, the Ministry of Public Security, which worked to detect absent members in an attempt to bring them back to our room. These efforts will continue the weekend – these efforts will continue until the weekend. For those who have fled to Illinois or California, it is reminded that the FBI is reportedly recruited and that their powers are not limited to the limits of a single state.
With regard to the new administrative policy in our Chamber, Kelly Hancock and I have established a new policy that a member of an absent member has for the breaking of Quorum will know longer that their salary or per Diem is being deposited electronically, while the Constitution forbids us to pay wages, it does not dictate how we spend the wage.
