The Spin
Pro-Trump narrative
Trump is right to bash these Indiana RINO legislators who just committed a monumental betrayal by killing the redistricting push that would protect Republican representation. These spineless traitors are handing Democrats the House while refusing to vote on essential reforms that every genuine Republican supports.
Anti-Trump narrative
Indiana Republicans deserve credit for showing backbone and rejecting Trump's desperate mid-cycle gerrymandering scheme. These principled legislators have refused to let Washington operatives manipulate Indiana's political landscape when Democrats represent over 40% of voters. This is a victory for fair representation.
