Watch, they will call him a racist and akin to Jim Crow if he does not let them attain Emperor power to Democrats. Some Democrats on social media call me a racist when they are cornered. They do not have resiliency in attacking the problem instead of the person. He may be the most important Democrat in Congress that still has common sense and has not gone totally left full rudder into the fatal iceberg of Socialism. Recently, I heard on the Sirius XM radio Senator Kennedy of Louisiana sarcastically say that he knew that President Biden was left of Center but not left of Lenin.

The filibuster issue has been twisted, turned, spun, done, redone, talked about and ignored for a long time. There is nothing in the Constitution addressing it, only that the Senate can write their own rules.
I do not like one person having the power to stop legislation, but I also do not like the idea of the potential abuse of power by one party like we had during the latter years of the Obama administration.
I have no problem with ending the filibuster, but the party that does that had better be ready to pay the costs.
