What I'm saying is this DOESN'T get rid of lifers. It only pretends to. Instead, it just makes unelected lifers in bureaucracy more powerful, and it makes us prematurely replace the few good politicians we manage to get, while the bad ones go "all-in" on selling America out in their final term, because they have nothing to lose.
The worst that can happen is far worse than the status quo. The worst that could happen is that Rand Paul and Thomas Massie get replaced by Trey Grayson and some globalist pedophile, and the same goes for Lauren Boebert, MTG, Matt Gaetz, etc...right around the time they finally would have started to get the hang of things.
Are things bad now? Yes. Have they been bad for decades? Yes. I understand how blackpilled people were before Trump. I was too. I understand the need to shake things up, because what we're doing now clearly isn't working...but when most politicians are bad guys, term limits disenfranchise the good voters far more than the bad ones. I know that we're basically desperate, but we still have to avoid traps tempting us to make things worse.
Long-term, the real solution is that we need more civically engaged manpower, both politically and for actively working toward a self-sufficient parallel economy. The real solution is going to be extremely messy and potentially end in secession or war, but the unskippable first step is for more of us to get pissed off enough to leave our comfort zones and get off our asses. If that seems unrealistic, it just means we're due for a lot more pain before we have the critical mass necessary to fix the problem.
Now, letting states select Senators again would help...but that's not what we'd get from a Constitutional Convention either, and almost nothing is worth opening that door unless we have a guaranteed pro-liberty supermajority in over 38 states. As desperate as we are, the current Constitution, unenforced as it is, is far better than what would emerge from a Constitutional Convention today.
