He is from a red state and have no pressure to get rid of it
I am talking about reform Breh . He has some cover with other dems not supporting reform or scrapping it BUT once that’s gone and the GOP is refusing any type of cooperation he’ll run out of excuses

He'll still want to compromise and hack up the proposals.

He's already said that he wants to "make it painful" but he's not willing to get rid of it all together.

That shyt gotta go. Even reverting back to the old rules of standing and talking helps move things along more

Hopefully Senate Majority Leader Manchin comes around on this

can i ask a serious question; where was all of this talk in 2017 and 2018, when the filibuster was the only thing preventing the republicans from blasting through whatever they wanted? why weren't the dems saying "we need to get rid of this jim crow relic" in 2017? it was still a jim crow relic 3 years ago, wasnt it? :mindblown:

doesn't it look stupid for the democrats to just start saying this now? if they want to get rid of it because they're in the majority, then just have the balls to say it and own it

i mean you have some of these idiots like dikk durbin calling it racist when he was just fukking defending it in 2017 :mindblown: why was he defending it then?

If the Rethuglicans want to get rid of the filibuster, they'll do it, regardless of what the Dems do or don't do.

but they could have in 2017 :heh: they had a bigger majority than the dems do now

for the record, i hope the dems do get rid of it :yeshrug: im all for it. but the idea that they're doing it because of some noble crusade against jim crow is insulting. they were defending it in 2018 :scusthov:
