Good grief. Read Article V.

“To become part of the Constitution, an amendment must then be ratified by either—as determined by Congress—the legislatures of three-quarters of the states or by ratifying conventions conducted in three-quarters of the states, a process utilized only once thus far in American history with the 1933 ratification of the Twenty-First Amendment.”

Republicans control too many state legislatures for the Dems to achieve such an amendment of cancelling the electoral college, and a Conventon of States might actually achieve ends which the Dems would not like concerning the press and the 1st amendment.

Let them go for it. Mark Levin would love it.

Ita all theater.
