Even if he became POTUS, he would have no control over either house of the legislative branch of the federal government. He could urge, suggest, or beg them to eliminate the filibuster, but he can’t unilaterally make them do anything.

They’ve clearly signaled what their plans are should they ever win the Senate. <<

I think the plan is to win everything THIS election by hook or by crook.....muddy the waters...counting and counting votes till they win...

The lefts Powers that be (the Swamp) have too much to lose....They are “All In”...too many big fish will go to jail if they lose...Biden is just the tip of the iceberg...

And he’s apparently still calling the shots of our useless senatorettes here in NV. I only rec’d a response from one of the two and she told me she will use the precedent (?) and not support the confirmation of ACB. Weird for the demo champions of women’s equality and rights eh? She probably won’t care for my response to that stupid “precedent” comment.

Why does a former Senate Majority Leader think the president has something to do with changing Senate rules?

That’s the way leftists think; everything is top-down, so long as the president/dictator is on their side ideologically.

Sane friends, please all move to TX if you don’t already live here. If the US goes to hell, we need to reform the Republic of Texas. Will need as many right minded folks here as possible to make sure the socialists remain outnumbered

Does Reid remember that the president has absolutely nothing to say about senate rules?
or that there’s no way any substantive legislation eill be up for a vote in the senate 3 weeks in? if they follow normal order, there would be weeks of hearings.

So when Republicans win the House back and keep the Senate and WH, should they do the same thing? How about it, Harry?

Except he can’t do that.

Unless Reid thinks Biden is running for senate.

You’ve heard the old sayings “The devil takes care of his own” and “It’s hard to kill a bad thing”, I take it . . .

Even if President he could not end the filibuster. The authority for that belongs 100% to the Senate.
