hopefully the bill will get filibustered in the Senate.
They’ll just extend the nuclear option again.
I don’t know if they are willing to go that far. It is one thing to get rid of the filibuster for Supreme Court confirmations, but quite another to get rid of it altogether. Also remember the Republicans must consider the future when the Dems have the majority in the Senate.
They’re not going to abolish altogether at once; they’ll chisel at it step by step during the next eighteen months. They’re going to make sure the democrats never gain a majority in the senate in the near future.
If they get rid of it for regular bills(which is what they would have to do to get a around a filibuster on this bill), just what would be left of it to chisel at for the next 18 months?
