If Senate Republicans don't get rid of the Filibuster Rule and go to a 51% majority, few bills will be passed. 8 Dems control the Senate!
Yes. But more accurately, 3 or 4 fake republicans control the senate
Don't talk about Juan "Lettuce" McStain like that!
Trump is absolutely correct to point this out. The Dems would do it in a heartbeat if they could. They would Deem it so. Reps would never have the guts to fight back as they are completely controlled by the Dems. The Dems are the meal ticket. Reps would rather go against trump than take up an argument with the Dems.
IIRC, during Bush years the Dems had Senators changing parties to screw up the system. No one fought them. Get with it Reps. We all know how crooked Mitch & Co. are.
Certainly - and by some counts it could be claimed that 15 or more Republicans (more accurately, RINO’s) control the Senate.
Trump needs to point out Democrats get things done in the Senate when they are in control.
After what the Rats pulled with Scott Brown during the ObamaCare votes (look it up) the President’s absolutely correct.
51 vote level wouldn’t change a thing other than unmasking the Rinos. They would team up with the Dems to stop anything.
