They CANNOT alter the Constitution, so don’t worry about that one. 13 states refusing to ratify an amendment block it. Surely conservatives control state legislatures in 13 states.

FTM, the proposed amendment couldn’t even get the necessary 2/3 majority in the Senate, probably not even a simple majority. In the House, even fewer votes.

But I agree they don’t realize the peril they’re in. Americans, with extraordinarily rare exceptions, accept the government as legitimate, largely because they respect the Constitution. Liberals whittle away every day at the Constitution, thinking they can do so and not damage their own power base. They can’t.

Obama could just write an executive order, they would enforce it....but that would be that, as they say. The tree of liberty would drink deep.
