You have not been betrayed.
We have 55 senators, we need 51 to get rid of the stupid filibuster rule. Then we need 51 to get ALL of our people approved and seated. THEN, we need 51 votes to get a ProLife judge on the Supreme Court.
We have been betrayed because now we cannot get ALL of our people approved and we CANNOT get a ProLife judge on the Supreme Court. Why, because the stupid Filibuster still exists.
The President needs to get involved and lead from the front on this. There is nothing more pressing than saving the lives of 3000 babies every single day.

You are making assumptions that cannot be proven. The "deal" only addresses these nominees. In the future, the Republicans reserve the right to act how they see fit if the Democrats filibuster under what Republicans do not agree are extraordinary circumstances.
Look at it from this angle, too...now next year we don't have to hear over the top discussions about how the GOP blew up the Senate. You know that was going to be club used by Dems and the MSM to thump the party. It won't happen now. That's good news.
