But we need to liberate ourselves from the toxic belief that those men were perfect in all things, vessels of sacred wisdom that must bind our society today no matter how much damage it might cause.
A strawman that's still far closer to the truth than what these Marxists are pushing. Our problems are largely a result of deviating from their vision of what the nation should have been. Our politics are so toxic because they're so high stakes. They're so high stakes because everything has become so federalized, which is contrary to the Founders' vision. The vast majority of divisive issues should be handled at the state level, so communities with different values can coexist under federalism. It's the left's unquenchable thirst for power that's poisoning the whole enterprise, and the Founders warned us about this.
Also End The Fed. Even if we get rid of it, having a centralized money supply encourages the bankers to prop up the federal government. Maybe if there's one thing about the Founders' vision we could change it would be the US Treasury. Let us have competing currencies. Personally I would also make every federal law sunset, and provide legal framework for states to secede or to be kicked out by all the other states.
He did. The difference is that Jefferson had a solid philosophical basis for what he said. He believed that the living could not bind future generations.
This jackass, on the other hand, wants to repudiate the FF because it's to his immediate political advantage. Like everything else that GAE elites do.
Oh look, it's a strawman!

It gets far worse, he begins larping that somehow the founding fathers would call it insane to keep that structure and integrity of the constitution.
Not gonna lie, didn't make it that far.

Even more so this was also the reason behind the ability to amend the constitution and the ability to ratify the states.
