Can they filibuster for 4 years? or Even 2? Because it would be a hell of a thing to run on.

Yeah, because these filibusters aren’t actual filibusters like in the movies, but procedural maneuvers to prevent things from closing. So they can drag it out for a long enough time until someone says enough is enough.
