Kamala says she will get rid of the filibuster. Sorry. She lost her chance to do anything about that. The president has no control over it. It is a rule set up by the senators and no one else.

Kamala can spend her entire life jumping up and down and throwing a temper tantrum. Only a vote of Senate can change it. Because she was a senator, if nothing else, she should know that.

Guess what, I learned it in the 8th grade. Why didn’t she?

Moreover, the real purpose of the filibuster is to protect the little guy. It keeps the majority from ruling over the minority. Without the filibuster, those with the money and power can rule over the little guy.

It can be a very frustrating thing, but it is a good thing, which the dems likely have used more than the Republicans. It can be used to protect. On the other hand it can be and has been used in abuse.
