I would force the democrats to filibuster. Talk until they drop. Then steamroll over them and crush them into the dirt.

It hasn’t worked that way in the Senate for years. When they do actually do that it is for show.

They just declare an intention to filibuster and that holds the legislation up until the (now) 60 votes for cloture occurs.

The nuclear option changes the rule for cloture to a simple majority.

I am sure this SCOUT nomination will end the filibuster forever in the Senate for everything.

Crush them to dust to be blown away by their fetid yelping and whining,
