The US Senate Republicans in power now, who will lose that power in a few months, are smiling at their good fortune in NOT doing what Donald Trump wanted…
To get rid of the Fillbuster rule, that at face value, is about continuous talking on the Senate floor to hold up business, but Really is about needing 60 votes from Senator’s to pass certain pieces of legislation…
Eevn with their majority coming next year?
Democrats are sure to keep the US Senate rule ….
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., did not answer Fox News Digital’s questions about their potential first moves in Congress after the Democrats won back the majority in both chambers with sweeping victories in Tuesday’s elections.
Schumer was pressed on whether he plans to abolish the filibuster as speculation grows that Democrats could eliminate the filibuster after President Donald Trump urged Senate Republicans to terminate it numerous times to pass the SAVE America Act.
Trump previously warned that if Republicans didn’t act on it, the Democrats would if given the opportunity, which they now have.
Schumer ignored the question after being asked twice by Fox News Digital if he plans to eliminate it.
Some Democrats have previously signaled openness to eliminating the filibuster if they regained the Senate.
During a news conference Wednesday morning, Schumer also refused to answer questions about some of his plans for the Senate as Democrats take back the majority, including eliminating the filibuster…..
Note…
No one knows what the future hold’s, eh?
