I don’t think they have 60 votes because of the deep state traitor republicans.

Vote anyway. We’ll see who is for shutting down the government and compromising the military on the eve of nuclear war with DPKR (and China/Russia).

They only need 60 votes to break a filibuster, not for passage. Need only 50 for passage, with the Vice President casting the tie breaking 51st vote. So 1 Republican can vote no, and all the Democrats vote no and they can still get it passed.
