It’s going to be a long two years. But hopefully, at the end of it, Democrats will have shown enough Americans just why they cannot — and should never again — be in charge.
As the crisis along the U.S.-Mexico border worsens and the agencies charged with defending it against illegal immigrants are not being paid, thanks to Democratic refusal to work with POTUS Trump on a solution to reopen shuttered government agencies, the party of the donkey is more concerned with enshrining voter fraud into law.
PJ Media’s Tyler O’Neil reports:
As Democrats took the majority in the House of Representatives last week, they wasted no time in drafting legislation to remake the U.S. Constitution, shifting the rules in their favor. One bill would abolish the Electoral College. Another would make voter registration automatic, repeal voter ID laws, drastically limit free speech in politics, and create a system where the government funds particular candidates — all in one bill!
These measures are being sold by Democrats to voters as ‘good government,’ ‘important to the defense of our democracy,’ ‘fundamentally fair’ — and other nonsense. But in fact, each of them tears further at the fabric of our society and would destroy foundational principles our founders enshrined to us for their posterity.
Already the regressive Left (because reimposing tyranny isn’t progressive) has made inroads into establishing state-level balloting systems devoid of legitimate oversight. Whenever states have made serious efforts to clean up voter registration rolls, for example, or prove who they are and that they are indeed eligible to vote, the Democrat Left has found ways to block them. (Related: Thanks to Democrat vote fraud and election tampering, trust in our entire system is collapsing — which is what they want.)
As for the Electoral College, this stems from Democrats’ refusal to accept the results of elections that their presidential nominees lose. Because George W. Bush and Donald J. Trump won a majority of electoral votes — which is how our presidents are chosen — instead of an overall majority of votes (which our founders patently rejected), they want to rig the system they believe will be in their favor and get rid of what they see as a roadblock to power.
Recently, one long-serving but now retired Democratic lawmaker, John Dingell from Michigan, actually proposed eliminating the Senate altogether.
“Today, in a nation of more than 325 million and 37 additional states, not only is that structure antiquated, it’s downright dangerous. California has almost 40 million people, while the 20 smallest states have a combined population totaling less than that. Yet because of an 18th-century political deal, those 20 states have 40 senators, while California has just two,” Dingell continued. “These sparsely populated, usually conservative states can block legislation supported by a majority of the American people. That’s just plain crazy.”
He, too, attacked the Electoral College, noting that he voted in 1969 to amend the Constitution to abolish it — even though our founders feared selecting presidents by popular vote specifically because a few large population centers would be able to do so, thus alienating a sizable plurality and setting the stage for unrest.
If anything, Congress should be favoring legislation and amendments that restore our founding constitutional principles, not tearing them asunder.
Mind you, none of these pieces of legislation the new Democratic House majority wants to be implemented are going to become the law of the land — yet.
However, what these bills tell us is that should the day come when Democrats are in charge again, these are the substantive changes they plan to make to our founding form of government.
If you think our politics are chaotic and divisive now, just wait and see what happens then.
