Schumer Asks Republicans Not End Filibuster

[rwilem]

Kamala and Senate Leader Schumer (D-NY) pledged to end the filibuster in the Senate. Made it big part of the campaign, one of the few policies they actually disclosed. Now, after Nov. 5, Chuckie's not in love with that idea. Hypocrisy at it's finest! 

 

"The short version is: Please don’t do to us what we were going to do to you."

The Dems did not play nice when Trump won in 2016 nor during the Biden administration.  Russia Russia Russia and jailing their political opponents.
 

Time to take out the trash ...

Return the favor to them in full force on all levels and give them what they wanted.

I’m guessing all that talk of packing the court came up as well. 

 

End the filibuster and add six originalists to the court.

Remove it and regret it in 2-4 years time. Stupid, short term politics as all democracies seem to be on.

Senate Republicans have already said they are not going to end the filibuster, which has been their position all along.
