19 down, 15 to go. MAGA’s pushing hard to trigger a constitutional convention. If they hit 34 states, it could reshape everything. Our founders are rolling in their graves. Buckle up!

Under the current Constitution, yes. But a Constitutional Convention has no limits on what they can change. Including how the new provisions would be ratified or even whether they could take immediate effect without ratification.
Let's go!
I'd love to rewrite the constitution, especially right after maga has shown that conventions are ineffective limits on tyrants.
Let's see them try to pass a constitution through 24 states that still allows money = speech & corps are people.
Ain't happening
"Republicans **currently control 28** state legislatures (including Ohio), that means at least 10 Democratic-held legislatures would also need to approve it as well."
Hmmm... Nobody says we have to break up into individual states. A few of us could get together to be a viable, if somewhat smaller, nation. F'rinstance...
That's just a map of the Census' Northeast Region. Who knows what would happen if the US actually broke up. But, as a crab-lover, it would be nice to have blueclaws be native to the new nation!

The flag will probably be next on the chopping block.
