minus-squareMatty Roses@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up4arrow-down3·6 days agoHey my little 7th grade civics students, how many votes would removing the filibuster require? the only way the Democratic party platform passes legislation is with a supermajority So again, your argument is that voting for Democrats is a waste of time?
