FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
Patriots are reminded that the product of a constitutional convention (con-con) is never a new amendment to the Constitution. The product of a con-con is only a proposed amendment to the Constitution which the states can choose not to ratify.
And if the states choose to not ratify a proposed amendment, then the con-con that produced the proposed amendment was arguably a waste of time.
So saying that a con-con will give Soros the power to rewrite the Constitution is seemingly intended to scare the states into not having a con-con imo.
And patriots really need to work with their state lawmakers to repeal the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendments (17A). This is because the abuse of their 17A power by low-information citizens by electing crook senators has been instrumental in fostering the growth of the unconstitutionally big federal government that is oppressing patriots under its boots.
Your last two paragraphs get to the root of the problem. When Governors and State Legislatures finally man up and take their power back, then and only then will the correct solution have been applied.
States have been derelict in their duty to their citizens for decades. Bowing to the ever more powerful fed guilty of fiscal blackmail among other crimes.
