So, because it couldn't pass, you're saying that it is no big deal that 41 out of 100 senators have publicly stated that they would vote for this?

Cool! Thanks for letting us know so we can rest easy.

You can rest easy because 41 senators is not enough to meet the two-thirds threshold. Even 66 senators would not be enough. The Framers set the bar very high.
