Can’t modify the constitution without a convention, a constitutional convention needs 2/3 of the states to agree to the changes IIRC, that’s why there hasn’t been an amendment passed in a very long time.
Assuming they follow the rule of law, which they likely won’t.
that’s project 2025’s primary stated goal and it looks realistic right now since republicans already have the needful majorities in levers of government in all of the branches and the states.
the equal rights amendment was passed in 2020; so it’s definitely possible.
I’m pretty damn cynical but I’d be surprised if they could pull of a constitutional convention.
I actually think it’s more likely my state would secede than a constitutional convention being successful. Especially if we end up in a tariff war with Canada and Quebec hydro shuts off power to us…
my state would secede than a constitutional convention being successful
that’s both our only hope and the mostly likely avenue of attack since we’re on track be only 3 states away (at best) from republican control in 2026.
the divide between the republican and democrat states is going to mirror the presidential election electoral college if the democrats don’t get their act together and i’m pessimistic that they will since the party’s leadership continues to insist that they lost because they went too woke and doubled down when they blocked aoc from the oversight committee position a couple of days ago.
