Is Reid saying that constitutionally congress can ban states’ rights to pass laws outlawing actions? In your dreams, Harry. Outlaw filibusters all you want. That dog still won’t hunt.

Because Harry has SUCH a great track record of changing rules in congress, and there being no unintended consequences!

What Democrats really want is:
Republicans in the majority: filibuster OK.
Democrats in the majority: no filibuster.

I understand, but have not confirmed the count independently, that Schumer used the democrat veto 318 ties against Trump.

Reid used it against Bush II regularly as well.

People need to stop saying the Dems are only liberal, because of the Squad.

Harry is only saying this because the democrats
do not believe they will ever be in the minority again.

He’s just trying to be relevant. I don’t care one iota about what this person thinks about anything!
