Virginia’s election fight takes center stage as a controversial redistricting push sparks accusations of a full-blown power grab. Mike points to what he sees as a familiar strategy—campaign as a moderate, then govern aggressively once in office—highlighting comments from longtime Democrat figures that seem to reinforce it. He questions whether changing the rules mid-game is about fairness or simply securing control at any cost. As outside money and national voices pour in, the stakes feel bigger than just one state. If this approach works, he wonders, does it become the new normal everywhere? And if so, how should the other side respond?
