re: #124 Nerdy Fish
if the Democratic Party can hold a majority in the Senate, they make the rules, and they absolutely can AND WILL abolish the filibuster.
At which point they make DC a State, and maybe Puerto Rico. Then let’s talk about expanding the Supreme Court; we can’t do it all at once, if they’re going to go to 13 (to match the number of appellate districts) it’ll have to be add one in each presidential term until they get to that.
