Yes, reality has a liberal bias.

I dunno what we should do with the other territories. They're really too small to be a state by themselves. Even I can agree with that. But they should at least get some form of representation.
Nearby USVI could be included as part of PR for statehood. The rest of them I don't have a clue.

Wyoming has 586,000 people
Territories have:
Guam: 159,358
Northern Mariana Islands: 53,467
United States Virgin Islands: 106,405
American Samoa: 55,519
Various others that don't even make 300 people
Combined, still less than Wyoming.

Yeah, somehow I think that if you make such claims that you have to back it up with an unassailable source. Isn't that what everyone says?

The population difference between California and Wyoming is considerably larger than Wyoming and any of the territories.

I actually don't really know how we should best do things. It is weird to me that Wyoming has 2 Senators representing them, and so does a state with nearly 80 times more people.
But I guess that is what the House is for. California has 53 districts while Wyoming has 1.

The solution is simple: abolish the Senate

Of course, that's why it's the title of this thread. Any relevance to current happenings is purely a coincidence

Well, yeah. The Senate is supposed to be an august body of statesmen not subject to the changing winds of popular opinion. That's why Senators get six-year terms and members of the House only two years.

It is quite true that Trump may have been entirely unaware that his senior campaign members were taking meetings with Russian agents, unaware that his campaign manager was lying on official documents about taking those meetings, and further unaware of criminal background of the person he hired to be the campaign manager. Ordinarily this level of incompetence and obliviousness would raise some questions, but with Trump I suppose it is entirely possible.
