I never did. The biggest reason democrats lost is because we are on the downswing of the arc of history. We are facing an inexorable crisis of democratic decline and trust in institutions.

An amendment requires more approval than the initial author’s. The published amendment is very different from the original author’s proposed one because congress had all these debates where they specifically decided jus soli applied to children of illegals immigrants. That’s the version passed

Except the originalist roots specifically debate the issue that you have, and conclude against your viewpoint. An illegal immigrant in 1866 is the same as an illegal immigrant today

That’s not how law works. You can’t just misinterpret it because you feel that contexts have sufficiently changed to render it obsolete. You have to pass amendments to the constitution to change this

you can literally read the entirety of the senate debates; they explicitly argue over whether illegal chinese and romani immigrants' children should be citizens or not. spoiler alert: they concluded that they should be

Unlikely. The most likely anti-liberal thing that could happen to the US is it becomes a Hungary style state in the 2040s, which no one should want

Homelessness has many causes, and its rise can coexist with the bottom decile doing much better. 13.2% real wage increase is a lot. That’s like 2.5 months of rent people are better on

Never said it was impossible. Sue me for being cynical when the response to “the poorest of our society have had the greatest marginal wealth increase” is, “well actually this is bad because of {platitude}.” Economic recovery isn’t just numbers, it’s people living better and wealthier lives.
