“I think a majority can change the rules.”
Yeah, that sounds right. However, except for nuclear optioning Supreme Court picks, McConnell hasn’t shown any interest in changing any other rules.

As you agreed - the Senate can change the rules, but McConnell is only one Senator. So the balance of power is really held by the same troublemakers and drama queens we all love, which include Murkowski, Flake, Collins, and maybe some others. Unless they’re all on board, none of the Senate rules can change, and McConnell has alluded to ‘other Republicans’ ‘resisting’ when he has wanted to change the rules.
