Democrats have big ideas for scrapping republican democracy

"Now they want the electoral college to go, and tyranny of the majority to take precedence"

I have little confidence that today's voters are aware of the import of this. After all, they did vote for Bernie Sanders and Alexandria O-C, didn't they?

Monica Showalter  "Not content with just raising taxes and calling it 'good for us,' Democrats are arriving in this new Congress with big ideas. Big, big, very big, ideas.

"No more of that Clintonian reform around the edges, the small-fry midnight basketball thing, Democrat plans today are bigger. They'd like to start by remodeling the Constitution, for one.

"Because, after all, it always seemed to get in the way of their big plans to create a New Soviet, err, American Man, err, Myn, or whatever they call it, so now they're effectively admitting they've never liked it and now they want to get rid of it.

"One of them, incoming Rep. Steve Cohen of Tennessee, has put out a bill to eradicate the entire electoral college.

"According to CNN:

Washington (CNN)Rep. Steve Cohen has proposed two constitutional amendments, one that would abolish the Electoral College and another that would prohibit presidents from pardoning themselves, their families, members of their administration or their campaign staffs.

"The idea of course, is to institute "direct democracy" over the current republican form of government, and ultimately, tyranny of the majority. They'd very much like to rub out the votes of all those people who live in red states who voted for Trump, those bothersome places as Wisconsin, which take so much time and effort to travel to. That way, they can focus solely on coastal blue states and enable their lording it over the red states with no say-so from the latter. Writer Nick Nolte at Breitbart exposes the issue very well:" . . .
