Surely you are not that stupid, or maybe you are.

Harry Reid stopped it over Obama appointments being held up.

Lot of people predicted it could come back to bite him in the ass.

If you actually have sense enough to watch the news all of the appointments Trump is making only need 51 votes not 60 regardless of filibuster.

I don't think that is the case with Supreme Court justices, but the lesser courts and other positions that have to be voted on need a simple majority.


Thank Harry Reid moron.
