This is all about finding 2 or 3 Republicans that are OK with bringing back the talking filibuster, which is a mutual benefit to both parties. It is of zero benefit to Republicans so they aren’t going to support it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doing it now goes directly against their interests. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
