That said the GOP still has a number of options to table it, or refer it to committee, but at least that bypasses that fuckwad Johnson. This fucking government I swear to God. Can we just please have a constitutional convention already? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] krashmo@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago I'm not particularly confident that a constitutional convention would end positively. You need 3/4 of state legislatures to agree to any change and Republicans are much more likely than Democrats to reach that threshold. The most realistic outcome is probably an amendment banning DEI initiatives or corporate tax rates above 10% or some shit like that. permalink fedilink source parent [–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 26 points 1 year ago Impeach Johnson, too. Throw them all out via the 14th amendment. I'm so tired of the republicans being consistently the worst people on earth. permalink fedilink source parent
