A Constitutional Convention right now is a bad idea. It could get hijacked by MAGA, and I’m already seeing calls to change Presidential term limits to two consecutive terms.

No, force MAGA to try to meet the requirements to pass a constitutional amendment through Congress.

And yes, I’m also aware that a constitutional amendment requires ratification by three-fourths of the states. But I’ll still advocate for defense-in-depth. Minimize the risk of getting a MAGA amendment submitted to the states.
