The problem with nuking the filibuster is that feckless Republicans won't do a damn thing with all of that awesome power once they have it.

The Democrats will, though.

Exactly. They only need 51 for judges and they barely got any through. Biden made them a priority and Trump sees that daily. Why trump isn’t making judges a priority is a huge mistake.

There are other problems with nuking the filibuster. Problems named Collins, Murkowski, McConnell, Paul, et al. There aren't necessary 51 conservative Senate votes to be had on any particular issue.
