The Democrats this past year have made clear their hatred for the Senate and we’ve heard them make various proposals to eradicate the lingering power of the states as represented in the Senate by:

1. Abolishing the Senate entirely.
2. Apportioning Senate seats into districts that span state borders.
3. Combining the 100 Senate seats into the House of Representatives.

Tearing away the foundational traditions of the Senate paves the way to accomplish the leftist goals of diminishing the various states into Federal provinces that will be ruled from Washington by one and only one party.

The 17^th Amendment certainly tore the power away from the states badly enough, and handed it to lobbyists (aka the deep state in the private sector).
