re: #178 KGxvi

I’m sort of meh on the filibuster. On the one hand, I get why getting rid of it makes sense, on the other, imagine how much really bad shit that Trump and the Congressional GOP could have done in his first two years if Senate Democrats effectively had no say in legislation?

I like the idea that a filibuster must require actual physical standing and controlling the chamber.

The only thing that kept McConnell from abolishing it is that he didn’t want to actually pass anything.
