The filibuster is neither a glitch or a goof, as explained above. It is a means of preventing:
Majority Rule running roughshod over minority groups. (Look how Democrat governors used their powers to quash dissent during COVID to see why this has horrid idea written all over it!)....
Granted, it has been used for both good and evil, but it still gives the minority party (or opinion) a tool to prevent bad bills from passing- and could also be used to prevent an unscrupulous President from stacking the Supreme Court. IMHO, this is why a suspension of the filibuster or a tactical removal of some ability to filibuster, would be far better than a full on nuking of it.
Please, please, please take advantage and get rid of it. Republicans need to get a backbone and support President Trump.
Sorry, I typically do not downvote with no explanation, and so I won't here either:
President Trump is right about many things, but I respectfully disagree on this, for the reasons stated above.
Yes!!

Yes. Especially because it is no longer between 2 parties. It's now between the Constitutional Republic and the Shadow Goverment.
