    This will get shot down faster than there can even be controversy. Founding fathers would be rolling in their graves, and there‘s no way the Supreme Court can squeeze that kind of interpretation out of the Constitution.

    That being said, it may give some state legislators cover to go with it.

      Oh you sweet, sweet summer child…

      This has been a GOP wet dream for years. States and GOP legislators are going to cram this through by any means necessary. The Supreme Court has used medieval text from completely other countries in order to justify rulings and have openly said precedent doesn’t mean shit to them. These people will cram this through and smile while doing it.

      Founding fathers would be pissed that [slur removed] are voting. The constitution was written to oppress these people.
