I read the is not in the constitution. If that is true, can the Democrats change the count to 46 to pass our agenda? I am sure Mitch would pay Sinema and Machin to change to GOQ party and if we chance this than this will end all this pestering. I hope this can be done. I do not care if they do it back to us when they regain power because at least we will make voting free and fair.If Joe get tough and say he will blow up the filibuster to get our agenda through because we may not get another chance if we don't.So can we change the count? Thanks for the spell check. I changed it and thanks for answering the question guys. UGH.

1. Still need 51 votes to change the rules- "Gridlock" Manchin says no at this point. Nt

3. He's not the only one. Sinema's position is more extreme than Manchin's...

yet everyone seems to assume it's only Manchin. She wants 60 votes on nearly everything.

2. They can change it to whatever rules they want if they have 51 votes.

The 51 votes part is tough in a 50-50 senate tho.

4. I'm not usually the grammar police, but it's filibuster.

I'll delete when you correct. no prob: I misspell all the tmie.
