Ron DeSantis: “An Article 5 convention cannot change the Constitution.”

“I mean, you're not going to want people up there that don't believe in it. So I think there's adequate safeguards. But here's the thing. An Article 5 convention cannot change the Constitution. It's simply one mechanism of proposing. Congress can propose with 2/3, the states can propose with two thirds. Ultimately, any. Any actual change for the Constitution requires ratification of 3/4 of the states, 38 states.” (11:03–11:07)
