Who really cares if a president fudges the numbers on a mortgage application for a beach house?
Hopefully everybody else who is supposed to be punished for breaking the law. Honestly, if there are laws that aren’t important enough to enforce when the president breaks them, they shouldn’t be laws.
Now I get the worry about frivolous lawsuits, but it wasn’t like that was an issue at all because our court systems favor the wealthy and powerful already. That is why the whole SCOTUS decision was bullshit just like the filibuster.
It needs to happen, along with a Supreme Court amendment.
But the bar is too high.
An amendment starts by getting 290 votes in the House which a) is currently controlled by Republicans and b) Barely gets a simple 218 vote majority to decide who their own leader even is.
The last time they exceeded 290 was to bounce out George Santos. That’s how bad it has to get.
This is why I thought Joe should’ve been the fall guy for this. Start being the dictator the Supreme Court says he’s allowed to be an then Republicans will immediately snap to and passing this amendment will be their highest priority. He doesn’t even have to drop bombs or anything. Order troops to go into GOP controlled states and help boost voter registration.
I like the cut of your jib, stranger.
I don’t think you could pass a constitutional amendment stating the sky is blue right now.

We can’t pass an equal rights amendment, and we are, if memory serves, ONE state away from a convention of the states. This unfortunately isn’t going anywhere.
Doesn’t mean there isn’t value in introducing it, of course. Just that it’s not a serious, practical proposal.
Joe Morelle has been doing awesome lately. No doubt fueled by late-night Garbage Plates and Genny Cream Ale.
The nostalgia of this comment, chef’s kiss
Your downvotes are likely the ones who get those… issues… with Genny Cream Ale
As a current Rochesterian. Genny cream ale is just the worst Genesee brew, all their other stuff is good. Even genny light is better than the cream.
It’s super cheap, though, so a good fit for young people with no money who can withstand its famous effects on your bodily functions.
Nothing will plug the hole left by Trump versus the United States, as he continues to attack American values and interests all over the world.
It’s gotta be done.
