Interdasting thought -



I agree with many here on the Senate is f'd up right now, but I think the left would fight this to their death anyway. Kind of dumb to say why will the right not push it, the left would go nuclear if they did.

Let's populate the Senate using that map.

Rep-60
Dem-22
Mixed-18

The main point of a repeal of the 17th would be to remove the authority to ratify treaties from career politicians.

And the reason the left would fight this to their dying days is that they know restoring power to the states would end their domination in WaDC. That doesn't mean we don't have to do this, just that it won't be easy. And the longer we wait, the worse it gets. LINK
