    A constitutional amendment required 2/3s House and Senate AND 3/4 of states. And they don’t have that. This is more bullshit to distract.

    To amend the U.S. Constitution, a proposed amendment must be approved by a two-thirds majority in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, and then ratified by three-fourths of the state legislatures (38 out of 50 states). Alternatively, an amendment can be proposed by a constitutional convention called for by two-thirds of the state legislatures, but this method has never been used.

      This is saying it louder for the people in the back. Musk’s Nazi Salute isn’t getting the message across? Okay, how about this?

        They so desperatly want a hidden militia to come out of the woodwork and coup the country for them

        Those people are either dead from covid, too old to fight for their coup, or are just LARPers and actually aren’t interested in dying for a con man.

          The ones Trump let out of prison were willing to do violence, including killing police officers. They’re a credible threat.
