We live in a democracy. If you get enough people to vote for this platform, then sure let's do it.
You can't compare a popular bipartisan law to a hypothetical thing you just made up.

I didn't seen any election in which this was on the table. This issue is popular and bipartisan amongst congresspeople, but that cannot be extrapolated to the public.
Moreover when there's 100s of issues at stake in any election you will inevitably have to vote for a candidate that disagrees with you on some of them.
Moreover the entire point of "rights" like free speech is that some things need to be protected beyond a simple majority.
The popular vote for president would like a word. And, yes, I know Trump won that too, but the point still stands that it doesn't matter.
