The GOP majority in the senate took the entirely justified
and necessary action to do away with the filibuster in the process of senate
confirmation of a Supreme Court justice. The looney left had no desire of
fulfilling the constitutional requirement of vetting the nominee. Before
President Trump even nominated anyone, the looney left had already determined
that they would vote against ANYONE that President Trump nominated, with no
regard or intention of even evaluating the nominee’s credentials.
The GOP should also do away with the legislative filibuster
as well. It is totally ridiculous that 41 senators can dictate to and subvert
the desire of a majority of 59 senators. The laws of the United States should
reflect the will of the majority (not the will of the minority). If there are
51 senators that want to enact a law, then the law should be enacted. Of
course, there should be discussion about a bill before it becomes law, and if
the concerns of the minority can be addressed, then that should increase the likelihood
that the law will be better. The only thing that the filibuster accomplishes is
to ensure that the senate cannot enact new legislation. Combined with this is
the fact that the looney left (hate trump) senators are not at all interested
in enacting useful or necessary legislation if it conflicts with their primary
goal of opposing everything in the Trump agenda.
