Hey, here's an idea that will make EVERYONE happy!

In exchange for letting Trump ALTER the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution to eliminate Birthright CItizenship we on the Left can ask for a few minor modifications to the 2nd. Not even eliminating it, just altering it slightly to see if we can moderate the death.

Sounds fair.

Of course "compromise" doesn't compute for many on the Right but this is how things USED to be done in the US. Trading.

Great, let's have an Article V Convention of States. I'm game.
 
It just isn't.

So you don't understand what I was talking about originally. Got it.

That's not the way the founding fathers laid it out.

I'm NOT saying that you can just trade the amendments... I'm saying that we on the LEft will be glad to consider the OPTION OF ELIMINTATING Birthright Citizenship through proper channels if we are allowed to consider the OPTION of say, removing a comma from the 2d Amendment.

Perhaps not, but there are only two ways to amend the Constitution, and tit for tat isn't one of them.

That's fine, but it's a hypothetical with no basis in reality. It's simply not how the amendment process works.

Jeez you are stupid. I'm not sayin that's how you actually AMEND it, I'm saying we start the conversation of amending it using proper channels. We'll support your push to change the 14th if you support our push to amend the 2nd.


GOddamn you fuckers are some of the most obtuse humans on earth. How do you function IRL?????????

You juveniles always have to resort to venomous insults. And you wonder why you lost.

I'm not being obtuse, and in fact I was attempting to have a civil conversation with you, thanks for letting me know that's not possible. I'm merely pointing out that your proposition isn't how it works. Not sure why you are having trouble understanding that, though after your petulant outburst, I think I have a pretty good idea. Have a nice day.
