That will be an improvement. Not perfect, but one big step better.
Opinion: McConnell has given Democrats the justification they need to kill the filibuster

The rules which had existed for decades that were held to be sacred in the Senate so as not to change them, but radical Mitch changed them.
We agree on that.
Nope.
What rule did he change and how did he change it?
You still haven’t answered the question.
I'm sorry, but it's not my fault that you suffer from a lack of reading comprehension.
Maybe you can take some night classes?
When are you going to realize you have absolutely no clue what you're talking about. It's like you're pretending the Republicans aren't the ones who are actively trying to make sure votes from the other side don't count. It wasn't people with Biden flags storming the Capitol, playing in their own shit, trying to block an election from being certified. What you call "most", the MAJORITY call minority hoping for authoritarian Trumpian rule.
Or are you also just going to pretend your side has won a single popular vote since 1988? YOUR side cannot win without rigging and cheating the system. Use. Logic.
"Couple"? When was the democratic minority of the population blocking anything? I'll answer...there isn't a democratic minority.
No they don't. The cult cuts revenues like drunken sailors to enrich the already wealthy. They actually ACCOMPLISH not one damn thing.
Hey do you remember when the Republicans had the house and senate and Trump wanted to eliminate the filibuster so he could get his priorities through? McConnell would not permit it. So next time you make false statements about McConnell and Republicans, do your homework first.
The GOP used a Two Santa Clauses tactic to con America for nearly 40 years
This scam has been killing wages and enriching billionaires for decades

Every time I read one of your posts I lose IQ points. Wow you actually teach children? Have you ever tried thinking before your mouth moves or your fingers type? The word moron doesn't do you justice.
The rest of us can say the same of you. You are completely backwards in basically everything you think. Full on Trumpian idiot. You literally have no idea what you're talking about on the vast majority of subjects.
Or, more likely it was because McConnell knew he didn’t have the votes to do it anyway so it was a moot point. McConnell is a master at refusing to allow any votes that would put his caucus in an awkward position if he can help it.
Okay, because you would know what the vote counts were in the REPUBLICAN senate. You can't admit you have no idea what you are talking about.
No, but I know McConnell does. Please list the number of bills that were put up for a vote in the Senate after being passed by a Democratic House of Representatives and enjoyed public support. The answer is zero, because Mitch buried all of those bills so they never were voted on. For the same reason that Schumer won’t now, Mitch never seriously entertained a vote to eliminate the filibuster- they both know the votes aren’t there.Okay, because you would know what the vote counts were in the REPUBLICAN senate. You can't admit you have no idea what you are talking about.
it’s a very poor party leader who wouldn’t know how the majority of his caucus would vote on any particular bill. It’s why McCain voting down the attempt to repeal the ACA was such a shocker, it’s rare that a bill supported by the party in power doesnt actually pass.
