As i have explained to you, newbie, those rules do not bind a new Senate.

And as I have pointed out to you, gramps, yes they do. The Senate rules themselves say that they do. The idea that all standing rules magically become null and void is supported by nothing but your opinion. And your opinion does not constitute fact, much as you would like to believe it does.

Lol. You are persistent, but you simply do not understand the issue and why the rule does not matter. I hope you are not in a line of work where people depend on your analysis of complex matters. Lives and property could well be lost.

As i said, research the issue, don't just look at what Harry Reid wrote. Pay particular issue to arguments for and against the proposition that the Senate is something called a "continuing" body. Then take an informed position on that controversy. Then come back and espouse that position, and support it. Until then, you are like a second grader with an iPhone, doing a google search and reading the first result to get a very superficial answer to a question whose parameters you can't comprehend.
