Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) sent another warning to Democrats about what would happen if they heed the calls from their party to eliminate the Senate filibuster rule, the 60-vote threshold that allows the minority party to have some influence over legislation.
“It would not open up an express lane for the Biden presidency to speed into the history books, the Senate would be more like a 100-car pileup, nothing moving,” said McConnell from the Senate floor Tuesday. “Nobody serving in this chamber can even begin to imagine what a completely scorched earth Senate would look like.”
