Trump set for another victory after Roberts waffles again
After suffering a temporary setback when the SCOTUS issued a decision based on "why the President wanted to put a citizenship question on the 2020 Census", the President has emerged with a much better plan which may or may not produce an accurate count. The President will now turn to the Commerce Department and maybe other departments to estimate the number of illegal aliens in each state.
I kind of wish I was running the Commerce Department. I'd have a report estimating all Illegal aliens to be living in Texas! BTW, by now I would have had every Obama or Clinton appointee booted out of the Department and every staffer and Department official tested for objectivity. Enough about what ifs! The issue now is what the President is about to do.
He has been blocked by lower court justices as well as being torpedoed by the easily intimidated Justice Roberts.
However, the public is with him on this issue:
"Six in 10 registered voters, 60 percent, in a Hill-HarrisX survey released Tuesday said that the U.S. Census Bureau should ask the citizenship question even if it results in fewer responses. Another 21 percent said the question should not be included, while 19 percent were unsure."

In other words, although Trump was denied adding the question by the Courts, he wins in the court of public opinion. His decision to get an estimate from Government agencies is sure to be challenged by the usual leftist groups like the ACLU and "the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law". Politically, he is on the right side as far as the American public is concerned.
Just having this issue benefits him in 2020 and if he can provide an estimate after being denied an actual count, it becomes a win/win!

It's called Checkmate!
I don't think so!
Well, we will get to see it play out. Interesting times we are living in.
Interesting ,
is how you see Trumps' loss, as a win, just like every other thing Trump does, the "right" can never find any thing wrong in it
That's just plain Wrong
Asking about citizenship is wrong?
Why?
All it will accomplish is an inaccurate census count imo
plus
cost Tens of Millions more to reprint etc
im not pro illegal immigrants, they cost me my business
Just fucked up enough to guarantee that CA will remain a blue state
So, we should estimate how many illegals are living among us? There have been studies done. The studies estimate a lot more than the 11 million wev'e been hearing about for over a decade.
It has absolutely no bearing whatsoever
"The U.S. Constitution empowers the Congress to carry out the census in "such manner as they shall by Law direct" (Article I, Section 2). The Founders of our fledgling nation had a bold and ambitious plan to empower the people over their new government. The plan was to count every person living in the newly created United States of America, and to use that count to determine representation in the Congress."
The census would still count everyone without the question.
The Constitution? Don't you believe in the rule of law?
Oh I'm glad you changed that. That is true, but the problem is ONLY CITIZENS are to be represented!
Well, that was almost too easy.
Have a good night all!
