    So you pretend to be fair, yet castrate mcconnell? Exactly for? Being a conservative? Is schumer any better? Why? Because he’s a democrat? So half the country is with mcconnell, half with schumer and you dismiss that? Sure sounds fair...

    if you ask me, schumer hasn’t shown any class. Why did he even support a 100% partisan impeachment?

    if you truly want unity, schumer has to go himself.. bring in people who genuinely want to reach across the aisle and not continue to participate in this partisan debacle. I’ll give some numbers..

    congress approval rating:
    https://news.gallup.com/poll/1600/congress-public.aspx

    15%!!!! This is SHAMEFUL and not due to just mcconnell.

    trump’s approval rating more than twice this and he’s the clown, monster.

    you need to start holding many more accountable for this disgrace of congress we have, full of liars, radicals, self-serving individuals

    Not much point in a Senate rule that 80 Senators are required when they can have a straight majority vote via the nuclear option, like the Democrats did in 2013 and the Republicans did in 2017.

    I believe a constitutional amendment is what you're looking for. That would not be able to be overridden by 51 Senators.

    I also believe that one "Senate" cycle cannot impose rules on the next incoming Senate.

    WTF are you replying to? It's clearly not the OP.
