Hillary Clinton attempts to explain originalism to Amy Coney Barrett. It does not go well

Ladies and gentlemen, we give you perhaps the dumbest take yet from someone who should definitely know better on Amy Coney Barret and originalism.

From Hillary Clinton:

At the time the Constitution was ratified, women couldn't vote, much less be judges. https://t.co/B0oxTT2nzt

We can’t believe what we just read:

Good grief. https://t.co/Zz0FqNjIRv

Amendments: How do they work?

See how amendments work.

Let’s see what the late Justice Scalia said about this, shall we?

Dear HRC staffers: originalists don’t believe the Constitution should never change; they just realize it’s the job not of judges but of citizens through their legislators to make those changes. See, for example, the 19th amendment.

She can’t be this dumb:

You're either deliberately mischaracterizing originalism or you truly don't understand what it is. https://t.co/TLLieyifbn

Or maybe she is:

Hillary proves that she has no clue what originalism means. https://t.co/kEarR7Swqj

And Twitter should slap one of their misinformation labels on her tweet it’s so bad:

OMgosh and she's a lawyer. I know she isn't this stupid, but how many in America are! https://t.co/fJrOxcoEvF
