Read my first sentence.

Ok

Actually, a successful cloture (60%) is not needed, if unanimous consent w/o objection is given.

I put in bold the portion I think that is a fantasy. I think anything past that point is meaningless.

Do you really believe that not a single democrat senator would not object? Harry Reid for one example?

I agree that in this instance, unanimous consent is unlikely. My original post was a response to another poster’s questions re: some Senate requirements in general, not for this case, for passage of measures or for stopping debate. I appreciate your input.
