Is the filibuster still a thing? So Democrats have to vote on Republican things for them to pass? How many times will they do that? Like what’s crazy is they will not even do nothing if doing nothing would be helpful
Cory Booker had some kind of “hold firm” post about Trump’s appointments. I don’t remember a word of it but I do remember that at least two people replied back with a screenshot showing he, himself, had voted for three of Trump’s picks.
I think it’s clear that Trump is effectively the GOP senate leader. If Trump wants some laws passed - I assume he’ll tell them to end the filibuster. That way they can just ignore the democrats. The senate GOPers know that Trump has the powers of a king. He can imprison, torture or kill anybody. Even them.
And I somehow have a hunch that the parliamentarian won’t say a thing no matter how illegal or unconstitional Trump’s actions are. Biden could only shitcan them. Trump can have their entrails pulled out and their head put on a spike.

It still exists but Trump is doing all this shit entirely out of congress so the filibuster - at least for now - doesn’t matter at all.
Trump’s appointments still go through Congress and not only are the Dems not filibustering, some of them are voting to approve.

Yeah I just mean when they go to pass their shit into law guess who’s gonna line up bipartisanly
