Watching this closely. They’ve been looking to shed the pacifist overtones for the last couple years. Don’t be surprised if this becomes a trend everywhere but the U.S.
Even if democrats in America maintained a shoo-in two term POTUS, supermajority in both chambers, 40 governors, and 7-2 on SCOTUS, they’d spend so much time pre-optimizing and planning and bickering over special interests that they’d lose the control before any change could occur. Whereas the GOP asks “why change the constitution, when we can just wholesale ignore it?”
