If the Democrats don’t get rid of the filibuster then how can they accomplish the things that need get accomplished in order for them to win in 2022?

TL;DR: They don't want to do those things, but they still want to win. What's worse is, some of them believe they will win.

They need to explain to their kids how 35 beats 54....can't find that happening anywhere but in the U.S. Senate apparently?!

Just imagine if there were a group of progressive congress people working together - today it would have taken ONE vote to end the filibuster in the Senate because of the number of GOP Senators out of town already for the holiday.

Tyranny by the majority, mob rule and the removal of checks of balances is what you'd get if you suspend the filibuster. Why does the democrats have a right to free reign?

Many of them are institutionalised.

Mw. Gas prices are up. Food also. Housing & rent cost are up. Insurance is up. Restaurants cost are up. Your fertilizer is up. Illegal immigrants are up. Drug cartels are up.Inflation is up. The filibuster had nothing to do with it. President Biden & liberal politics did this.

They've already lost. Let's take a tally of things they've backpedaled on. 1) Public option, 2) Expand Medicare, 3) Raise Minimum wage, 4) Student loan debt, etc. They didn't win by margins that can survive lying like that.

Coded language referring to the Democrats’ HR 1 Election bill? That’s what they “need [to] get accomplished” to be able to win in 2022 right?
