Still, he stands in the way of a Filibuster-proof majority. Therefore, he must go.

All the majority leader has to do when the senate reconvenes is to change the senate rules (which takes a simple majority) to state that closure only requires a simple majority. There are one or two other rule changes that can be made at the same time - end anonymous blocks & require filibusters to actually be old fashioned stand on the floor speaking till you fall over filibusters again.

End. Of. Republican. Power. In. The. Senate.

It remains to be seen if he has a pair or not.

Honestly, I’d prefer an amendment stating all congressional votes, unless otherwise specified in the Constitution, will not require more than a simple majority.
