"but I don’t see any way that George Soros doesn’t hijack it."

Exactly. If we can't get elected representatives to make the changes. I don't see how a constitutional convention will help. We're likely to end up with something worse.

But here's a write up that argues that the convention would be limited in scope and any proposed amendments coming out of the convention must be ratified by 38 states. I don't know by law if this is correct. I also don't know if the 16 states that called for the convention did include the 3 topic limit mentioned.

Convention of States Last Chance to save the republic

I can see some amendments such as limiting Congress from holding foreign stocks and equities of any kind.

I'm not a fan of term limits. I think experienced senators and congressmen are an asset. As long as they work in our best interest and not theirs. That's the problem. Character matters whether it's 1 term or 10.

Repeal the 17th would be the place to start.

Do you know of any incidence that liberals did not cheat?

Gun rights - gone
Freedom of speech - gone
Freedom of religion - gone
Voter ID - gone.
Voting drop boxes - in

Basically, the first 10 Amendments will be eliminated or rendered harmless. The Media will gleefully pile on the liberal agenda here.
