How in the bloody hell do you misinterpret the following?

Quote:
Article. V.

The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution, or, on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments, which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress; Provided that no Amendment which may be made prior to the Year One thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any Manner affect the first and fourth Clauses in the Ninth Section of the first Article; and that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.
THIS is a legal document that specifically states how the constitution is to be amended. Why is anything else that 'tweeks' or in any other way modifies that legal document OK??????

By approving of 'tweeking' the constitution OUTSIDE of the legally documented path of amending the constitution is de facto approval for anything else that modifies the constitution, even with the current administration.
