In Barrett’s “originalist“ America, she could not be a judge or vote on any of these matters.
Europe has seen and felt what can happen if there aren't tough enough underpinnings of governments, i.e. the world wars. Words on paper could be detrimental to development, but could also help insure against deteriorating into chaos, oligarchy, monarchy, dictatorships.
I'm not defending the US constitution here, I think it's very flawed and weak in many ways. The 2nd Amendment is a major example, the electoral college, another. The president has far too much power, as we've seen the last 4 years, in particular if the office is held by a person with no respect for precedent, law, fairness, equity, morality and sanity. We're really up against the wall, and that wall may crumble and the integrity of the USA fall headlong into a funk we won't recover from. The unprecedented polarization is the canary in the coal mine. Politicians are afraid to deviate from the party line because individual responsibility is no longer valued. If we don't get over that soon, the USA won't recover.
In Barrett’s originalist America, the Founding Fathers provided a mechanism to update the text via Amendments, and through that process, she is able to serve as a judge and vote. The judiciary does not exist to rewrite law. They can interpret intent but the role of the judiciary is almost by default conservative in its mandate.In Barrett’s “originalist“ America, she could not be a judge or vote on any of these matters.

I guess because CNN released this this it didn't happen, right?!?There are recorded tapes
There are also recorded tapes of many of his personal and campaign advisors being openly racist. His campaign advisors has a famous rant where he basically advises Republicans to stop using the n word openly and stop being openly racist because it was turning off voters and instead code it with language about fiscal conservativism and protecting suburbs and etc.
