A rewritten Constitution. For example, the 4th Amendment should treat our devices and bodies as “papers and effects”, so that unwarranted searches aren’t constitutional. Ditto for LGBTQ+ and minorities being treated as people from the outset, and more.
In any case, to broadly speak to your points: An replaced Constitution should have a section dedicated to economic fairness and mechanics to uphold a more egalitarian society. For example, workers having the right to vote for leadership positions and pay packages, UBI, universal healthcare, education as a paid job for students, and so on.
The Magna Carta, American Constitution, and French democracy were born of suffering and strife. We are now in a age where that happens again.
The original constitution failed to account for an aristocracy forming and controlling the flows of information. I believe they called for an educated active constituency. Do you think you could amend the constitution in this environment? State convention or through the legislator. How many voters do you think actually know about constitutional convention? And with the states so fractured, do you think that they could get together and agree on anything?

That’s all good stuff, 100%, but if the existing constitution had been upheld, Trump would be in prison instead of the White House.

Hence, starting over. We need fresh politicians and an overhauled Constitution to go with them.
