Senator Ted Cruz today said that there just aren’t the votes in the Senate to end the legislative filibuster, as President Trump has been wanting.
He then went on to essentially give his own position it:
Great minds think alike. I literally posted this on X earlier today:
It's like some people on the right don't remember how thankful we were to have the filibuster protected just a few years ago when Biden Democrats were trying to shove horrible legislation down our throats.
Get rid of it now, reap the consequences later.

That’s basically what Cruz said, and he’s absolutely right. Sure, they may end up with the votes to do this at some point, but we should fight like hell to protect it because, as Cruz said, they will pass devastation on America if they get the chance. They already tried once, and both King Manchhin and Queen Sinema prevented it.
