Yet on the "repeal the 17th amendment" threads, the same crowd argued this occurred when the 17th amendment was passed in 1913. Your arguments might be more convincing if you could pick one date when "our Republic died" and stick with it, instead of setting it decades apart depending on your talking point on that given day.

The Republic has obviously been compromised by multiple injuries. Bonnie & Clyde died riddled with bullets... can you pick out which bullet was the one that killed them?

No, but I don't claim they died from a bullet wound in 1929 one day, and then the following day, make the claim that they died from an entirely different bullet wound that happened in 1934.

Your argument might have merit if the 17th amendment was passed in 1865.
