   Look. I don't have all the answers to address what is facing us. But I know the solution is NOT to just keep doing the same thing over and over and over again that has led us to this point.

     You can't change institutions by repeatedly electing institutionalists.

     Getting rid of the filibuster only requires a majority vote. We don't have to do a damn thing to get Democrats to get rid of the filibuster, they could literally do it today or at any time in the last 3½ years. But they won't. Because they like the status quo. It gives them a reason for why they don't get anything accomplished and allows them to raise funds by making false promises.

     They had all three for 2 years and did nothing. For the same reason.

     carl marks repeated this.

     Just make sure you elect Democrats to the White House, Senate, and House so they can get rid of the filibuster and expand the Supreme Court (even though we have done that already and Dems refused to do either of those things).
