Cherry-picked stats are banal.
Democrats won almost 5 million more votes in the CURRENT election, which is more than the entire population of Mississippi and West Virginia combined. That's why it's not unfair to claim a "minority rule" at play.

- rayiner 4y agoIf Republicans match their 2010 performance, which seems very possible, they’ll win the House in 2022 by 6 million+ votes. Do they get to declare everything the Biden administration did “minority rule” when that happens?
