Wait – I thought the exact words of the Constitution were sacred, inviolable, and immutable to Republicans? Oh, right – IOIYAR (It’s Okay If You’re A Racist).

Graham is a modern case study of how an ambitious person, knowledgeable about history, can remake himself into a Nazi.
Truly, I think he is the most vile member of Congress, because his descent into evil is completely self-conscious and planned.

US Constitution:

“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.”

New Rule: If the 14th Amendment is null and void, then so is the 2nd Amendment.

Thanks, Trump!

I would agree, except I think Rob Portman got there first, and embraced becoming deplorable more thoroughly. But then, arguing over which GOP official is the more vile dickhead may be quibbling.

Graham also announced his legislation to repeal the 14th Amendment completely would force blacks back into slavery. Graham said: “it’s about time we did this. My family fought to keep slavery and we need to make the Confederacy great again”.

Graham is calling the Constitution “absurd.” Remember that the next time the GOPers blather on about “plain meaning” and “original intent.”

I’m sure they have nothing. Graham has been a Boy Scout all his life… or something involving Boy Scouts, anyway.

Yeah, Portman’s whole shtick was selling himself as a “moderate” Republican. I mean he wasn’t moderate, but it was how he packaged himself. Now, he’s just another Trump Toady.

You cannot amend the constitution with legislation that is unconstitutional.

All the more reason to VOTE!

I already voted.

Well it’s really not possible for this to happen unless they are going to jerk the entire government out from under everybody and declare the constitution to be no longer in force and effect.

Well it will have to be a nonbinding resolution. Anything short of a Connstitutional Covention is useless. These clowns have to go.

IF that’s what you want to think go ahead but they aren’t going to be able to get rid of a constitutional provision in any way other than amending the fucking constitution which one more time takes 2/3ds of the states.

I’ve been through this - twice - with the ERA.
