If you really think "do you really want to go down that road" is an effective question in this context, you clearly haven't been paying attention for the last decade or so:
If there's anything that the Obama and Trump years have taught us, it's that the Republican Party has made abundantly clear that they A) are willing to destroy the country's ability to function, up to and including potentially bankrupting the nation, threatening to hold off ANY Supreme Court nominee until one of their presidents can nominate one, and even enabling the sitting president when he implies he has no intention of leaving office even if he loses the election, and B) have the power to do so.
To quote Johnny Lawrence: "You want a fair fight? Dream on. You can't always think your enemies are gonna play by the rules." And not only that, they have made abundantly clear that they have no plans on doing so; staying within the letter of the law, perhaps, but nonetheless, pushing the limits of what is technically allowable so they can win.
