I don't understand why John Thune and the Senate GOP wont go nuclear

and end this charade. The reason given is they're afraid next time the Dems have control they'll run roughshod .
Johnny...news flash...THEY'RE GONNA DO IT ANYHOW. AOC's gonna beat Schumer for his seat. you think people like that will hesitate?
It's not 1970 anymore. You have to understand the gloves have to come off youre dealing with Marxists. Any means necessary.. Stop kissing arse like it's Tip O Neill over there and play rough.
They're going to step on your necks if they retake the Senate. The idea is to keep them from doing it. Get with it.

Trump has been going nuts today over this.

John Thune is a RINO. He’s more worried about lining his pockets than his country.

Democrats are hoping Thune goes nuclear. This would open the door for them to push shite through once they return to power

Trump gets it. We are in a knife fight and the Senate Republicans are using kid gloves.
Bourre can't read. The Democrats WILL do this. There's nothing to stop them if Thune does it, or not.
If you think the Dems will play by the rules and let the filibuster hold them back put on a duncecap and go sit in the corner. Not gonna happen and I would hope you all have better sense than to think that bunch has any ethics.

They are already going to do that when they get power back in 15-20 years

I can read perfectly fine, dipshit. I’m just saying that the nuclear option is one of the endpoints democrats are hoping for in this fight. It allows them to pass what they want, once back in power, while saying the republicans did it first.
If you can’t see that strategy, you are retarded

Why would they? The government being shut down is great.

Unfortunately you are correct. If it wasn't for two moderate Senate Dems who are now unemployed, they would've already nuked it.

The point is Dr Dumbass, and I know you know this, theyre going to do it anyhow. Trump sees it. I see it.I guess The President is retarded too.
They will do it no matter what Thune does, and make some some excuse. So stop this fiasco, and get back to work.

You nuke the filibuster and there will be 42 Supreme Court justices the second they can get 50 plus 1 in the Senate.

Why burn the filibuster over a government shutdown? Save that for something important.

I can't make you people see it. Trump is telling you. They will do it anyhow.Did you not read Trump's post?
The object is TO KEEP THEM THE HELL OUT OF OFFICE...and tiptoeing around in fear of what theyre going to do isn't the way.

They would be able to open the door themselves if they get the power. If my memory serves me correctly, they tried before and the reason it failed was bc of Manchin (who is gone now) not voting with 49 other D senators

Exactly right. Democrats will trip over themselves to end the filibuster.You wont recognize this country when they get done with it.

the same reason why Biden and Schumer wanted to get rid of the filibuster: cant pass anything through with a small majority. this Congress might enact even less bills than the 117th and 118th

Because it'll be impossible to put that genie back in the bottle.

Because Turtle would sink him in the swamp-- and the establishment hate orange man and think he is really bad.

There are a hand full of RINOs that will not vote for that. He’s knows it won’t go through .
