I would estimate 3 months at a minimum. It depends how long it takes the GOP to invoke the nuclear option, because I just don’t think enough Dems will vote for cloture.

Just invoke a clause of Rule 19...Senators can only speak twice on a given subject during an open debate....so 48 hours would suffice.

And Rule 19 was invoked last week to gag the faux-Pocahontas
