Along with the Electoral College (which prevents tyranny of larger states over smaller ones by forcing POTUS to run everywhere not just in big cities in a few states) the Senate Filibuster (which prevents tyranny of the majority) proves we are a Constitutional (or Representative) Republic and NOT a ‘democracy’[SIC] (which is two wolves and a lamb voting on what is for lunch). Also 327 times in 2021 Democrats used the filibuster they now call racist.

In a bicameral format, one house represents the citizens. And the other represents the individual states.

Weird headline. Which is it: remarks on filibuster or election law changes?

Ok, Crazy Joe Georgia agrees to use the same standards for voting that Delaware uses. Does that make it less Racist??
