NEW: Arnold Schwarzenegger claps back at CNN's Jake Tapper, calls out "extreme gerrymandering" in blue states. Tapper: "Do you believe that the Republican Party is starting this?" Schwarzenegger: "No, Jake. There has been gerrymandering going on for 200 years." "There is such extreme gerrymandering going on that in a state like Massachusetts, it has like 40% of the people voting for Trump, they have zero representatives." "The Republican Party has zero representatives sent to the House. Think about that." "In New Mexico, 45% of the people voted for Trump and vote Republican, and zero is sent to the House, zero representatives from the Republican Party."

Every Red state should be trying to figure out how they can gerrymander more seats right now.

California is acting like they’re “evening the playing field” with Prop 50 when in reality the playing field has always been rigged in the Democrats’ favor.

The gerrymandering by Democrats is ridiculous. For them to now falsely accuse Republicans of it is even more ridiculous.

Tapper out here acting brand new like gerrymandering was born last Tuesday. 😂 Arnold didn’t flinch, just clapped back with facts. But sure, Jake. Let’s pretend it’s only a “red state” thing. Clown behavior. 🤡

He’s not wrong about gerrymandering being a problem, it happens on both sides. But let’s not pretend Republicans haven’t taken it to a whole new level in states like Texas and Florida. Fair maps should mean fair representation, period.

Democrats have been massively Rigging our Elections for a very long time… How dare Democrats deceive people about “protecting democracy” when they have been the biggest Gerrymanderers and Cheaters! It’s time to end this Huge Democrat Election Fraud!

Arnold makes perfect sense. Democrats have been taking advantage of gerrymandering for years.

Finally, someone from Hollywood tells the truth. Democrats have mastered gerrymandering while pretending to be victims. The system is rigged to silence millions of Republican voters.
