The former California governor says Trump's plan to rig Texas redistricting maps for Republicans doesn't justify his Democratic successor Gavin Newsom gerrymandering blue seats in retaliation.

Arnold Schwarzenegger gives a shady opinion on the ongoing gerrymandering battle that's happening within the U.S. Congress amid Donald Trump's presidency

Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has mobilized to fight Gavin Newsom's redistricting push as Democrats aim to counter Trump's Texas congressional map changes.

While delivering remarks to a crowd, Newsom tore into President Donald Trump, who has backed Texas Republicans, calling him a “failed president” and the “most unpopular” in modern history. He pledged to “meet fire with fire,” and pointed to how Trump tried to “light democracy on fire” on Jan. 6, and is now ”once again trying to rig the system."

In a recent appearance on comedian Theo Von’s This Past Weekend podcast, Schwarzenegger recalled that when he first arrived in California, the state’s population was around 20 million. Since then, it has roughly doubled — a surge that, he argued, demanded a proportional increase in housing.
