    The US constitution has amendments canceling amendments, more specifically the 21st repealing the 18th. Legally it is possible to repeal the 22nd, but the votes aren’t there… yet.

    The New Deal was so popular that FDR was elected to four terms. The 22nd amendment was a reaction to that.

        Who’s gonna stop them? The law ain’t doing Jack FUCKING Shit. If there is no group or individual who is both willing and able to inflict consequences, THERE ARE NO CONSEQUENCES

      They’re ignoring the equal rights amendment. I don’t think we’ll see another amendment.

        The ERA was made controversial. Any future amendment will likely be the product of catastrophe. I imagine if one happens it will be because we manage to get out of this current situation and need to prevent it in the future
