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…

Typical .world user.

Biden is a genocider, fuck right off. Luigi is a hero.

I thought things were happening sooner than expected by even the most doomer of scientists?

I’m aware of that, I’m not aware that they’re required to be American born, it would be an interesting constitutional question if the president and VP died and the speaker of the house wasn’t American born.

Edit - looking into it further, I don’t see the same qualifications being required as president and vp. For example, one only has to be 25 and up to be speaker of the house, yet one has to be 35 for president or vp. So again, I wonder if they elected a 25 year old as speaker and then a plane crashed with the president and vp on board (not possible they don’t fly together but let’s play pretend) I wonder if the speaker would be promoted to president to maintain continuity of government or if they’d be passed over to whoever’s fourth in line that meets qualifications.

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.

I guessed back when the patriot act was signed after 9/11 that we’d have a fascist dictatorship by 2025. Well….

I really wish my ability to see patterns applied to seeing winning lottery numbers :(

I don’t think that matters for speaker of the house? It does matter for president and vp

Assuming they don’t throw away the constitution that their base likes to jerk off too, how would musk qualify? He’s not American born. That and being over 35 are pretty much the only requirements.

Omg MTVs real world only it’s congress. I’d pay to watch that!

But they all should wear nascar or ski racing style jackets where all the sponsors logos are listed from big to small based on how much money they’re being paid to shill for.

This feels one step closer to idiocracy…

Damn, it’s only 9am and it’s already too much internet for me today

Yeah, no. Fuck the democrats and the dumbass liberals who support them. Y’all get what y’all deserve. A fascist government. Biden admin had four years to prosecute trump for J6 and they slow walked the case. Democrats have had numerous opportunities to show a backbone and get shit done and time and time again they refuse to do anything except blame republicans and play identity politics. That’s all they have to offer.

Oh, this is lemmy world, sorry for hurting libs feelings. Jk, not sorry. Y’all shat on the left for years now you’re getting what you deserve.

Democrats refuse to hold people accountable and then are shocked pikachu face that they lose elections when they don’t even bother creating a platform besides we’re not trump. cope and seethe libs!

Wow that’s fucked
