Put the scumbags in the ENEMEDIA on notice that TRUMP IS GOING NUCLEAR!!
TRUMP must INSIST on nuclear option in SENATE For LEGISLATION and APPOINTMENTS.
NO WAY will American people tolerate the DEMOCRAT COMMUNIST PARTY MINORITY stopping anything that needs to be done to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!.
GO NUCLEAR!!!!!!

Call his bluff. I’ll bet he hasn’t stood in one place for more than five minutes in twenty years. It’ s important to cut him down to size right out of the gate. Twitch’s problem is he condemned the nuclear option while Reid did it.
We can always call for a cloture vote.

Bring it Schmuckie. I think President Trump is going to beat him like a rented mule. Metaphorically I mean.

Force them to do the filibuster in the old style then do the approvals anyway with the new Democrat Senate Rules. Let them filibuster by telling stories or just babbling from the floor then at a certain point cut them off and use the Democrat simple majority rule for nominations. If they filibuster to breakdown and can’t prevent a cloture vote, instead of calling the cloture vote, ostentatiously follow the Democrat rule, instead. Rub it innnnnnnn

I’ll give you Collins. I doubt the rest will support the Democrats to retain the filibuster rule. Actually, the one I’m most concerned with is McConnell.
