Dingell is old enough to be suffering from some form of dementia. I saw this with my father. In 1990-91 he was in his late 80’s and still lucid but parroted the lamestream crap about ‘the worst economy in fifty or a hundred years’ and the war with Iraq over Kuwait was going to be like WW1 with massive casualties and no decision (because that was how the Iraq-Iran War went). My father was really conservative. I knew he was just repeating what he heard and he was going downhill fast. I suspect prograt operatives, maybe grandchildren or nephews, are programming Dingell to get him to spew out this crap. It does tell one where the prograts are headed as a major talking point.

expel California from the Union.

Fascinating. Is there a Constitutional basis for doing such a thing?

Also repeal the 16th and 19th Amendments.

Those may follow after the 17th. The 17th is the key to reining-in an out-of-control Federal government.

Dingell wants war. If this idea were to take hold and be pursued, it would mean war, as the smaller States would need to protect themselves from the larger, more populous States.

So basically he is calling to go to a Parliamentary system.

Actually, by singling out the Electoral College and the Senate, he's effectively calling for the elimination of states.

John “President Snow” Dingell wants the US to be like the Hunger Games, with the bigger states/cities ruling over smaller/rural areas.
