The Dems are just acting like sore losers right now. You can bet that they would change their tune when they're back in the minority and couldn't use the filibuster themselves.

It would be pretty dumb for the dems to do that. It will be their only protection after mid terms. But I hope they do. I will laugh my, well you know the rest.

Those stupid mfers don't realize it'll end up being used against them when they lose power. Plus, just because you can't ram through everything you want, doesn't mean you get to change the rules whenever you want. Abolish the SCOTUS, end the filibuster...who's really threatening democracy here?

They changed them for judges. Giving Trump tons of judges confirmed. Did they learn nothing from that mistake? The rules exist fir a reason. Dems won't always be in power. Beware of unintended consequences.

Have seen this before 55 years ago. Dems have allowed revolutionaries back into the party. No compromise will satisfy them
