Mitch McComical...I mean McConnell should have done this 2 years ago. Many were saying as soon as the Democrats retake the Senate they would do exactly that.

Mitch McComical...I mean McConnell should have done this 2 years ago. Mitch is a gutless deep stater, but truth is I doubt he had or has now the votes to undo it.
The filibuster rule allows the majority to get away with doing nothing and not have to take the blame. End it now.

If the GOP had any balls, they would have ended it two years ago.

Isn’t this a Senate rule? The Dems would have to win the Senate.
To: antidemoncrat
The filibuster was never meant to be used like the demotards use it. It was supposed to be a rare thing where the minority party could stop the majority BUT ONLY if they got up there and delayed things by talking nonstop. It required serious effort
The current version is just the minority party declares a filibuster on everything and stops the majority and has to make no effort.
Stupid turtle should have gotten rid of it two years ago.

If the repubs become the minority and try to use the filibuster the way the dems do, it will be repealed in no time flat.

I’m OK with an actual filibuster. Stand and talk or sit and vote.

2020 Dems take aim at filibuster, say Senate tradition should 'go the way of history' I'm okay with that. The Republican wimps never use it anyway...

It should be the old fillibuster: on the floor speaking.
That worked and there was no good reason to change it.

I am perfectly fine with that. Make the SOB’s take an up-or-down vote on EVERY issue and let the chips fall where they may.

What if the Democrats never win another election, and go the way of the Whigs instead?

A President can’t scrap a Senate rule.

They absolutely should have ended the filibuster 2 years ago, but I don’t think we can lay this one at McConnell’s feet. There’s no way he would have had the votes.
