of the census question but he won the war. Latinos, especially, are not going to fill out the census form. This census will be under-reported by millions of people, just what Trump wanted.

Next, Roberts left the door open for states to gerrymander districts by using a citizen head count and not a total head count. Republicans can gain control of the House for decades.
