“Trump has influenced the culture of the church far more than the church has influenced Trump.

Kagan: there’s a specific proven identifiable finding of a legal violation (vote dilution in violation of the voting rights act). How the fuck is that not a compelling interest for a remedy that ensures minority voters votes aren’t diluted?
