This may embarrass some Democrats and certainly put the finger on them a while.
The GOP takes the original Constitution and has it transcribed as a piece of art, complete with the amendment lists and bill of rights and on the same type of paper the original was written on.
Arrange a ceremony in Washington DC at the House, and invite all the Senators and Congressmen from each state to come and sign it as a re-affirmation and commitment to follow the Constitution and the Laws of the United States during a joint session of Congress.
The progressives heads will burst.
You mean like the old slave owning white guys in powdered wigs did back in the day? That’s racist!
Brilliant. God that would be fun to watch.
The Constitution says what they say it says, don't you know that?
Include a reswearing of the oath of office and you have the makings of many a soiled panty.
Ask Keith Ellison what he thinks.
They would probably refuse to sign and respond by saying that the original Constitution counted slaves as 3/5 of a person. The media would then call it a big win for the Democrats.
Might be an interesting symbolic gesture.
Hey Bannon and Kellyanne, what do you think?
If they won't sign, impeach them!
They will have that opportunity at the ratification of the Constitional Convention.
And completely ignore the amendments clause and existing amendments which righted that error...
Also the fact that the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments were all pushed through by evil Republicans over the objections of Democrats.
IIRC, it was in Philly and the HUGE mural fell over almost nailing Ginsberg.
See....God does have a sense of humor.
Here’s the even funnier part: So was the 19th amemdment.
If there were a party and people with a demonstrable history of civil and equal rights that would be us...
Excellent idea!!
The KKK was formed by the Democrats to stop freed slaves from voting for Republicans during Reconstruction. Gun control laws were adopted by Democrats to stop freed slaves from defending themselves from the KKK wing of the Democrat party.
The list goes on and on.

Would we be expecting a great resurgence of Federalism? Least I can presume the DEMs would be more adverse; the REPs on the other hand, merely lip service to score political points.
5-min. after the whole stinking lot would be whisking through another extra-constitutional, anti-Liberty bill that benefits their pockets/donors/re-election run.
