The cloture rules can be nuked. The dems under Harry Reid did it. Time to go big or go home.


Yes, Harry Reid and Democrats did the nuclear option on cloture on presidential nominees.

That rule change is still in place, isn’t it. Unless the Republicans changed it back? Did they??

I thought that rule change was still in effect, so that a Republican majority could shove things back down the Democrats throats.

But why does Rudy think it would be hard for him to get Senate confirmation? I don’t see that he has ever had such universal strong condemnation from Democrats.
