This won't happen, but I can dream.

In my perfect world, Manchin and Sinema went to McConnel and told him they would never vote to end the Filibuster, so he made his agreement with Schumer. Next week Manchin and Sinema both vote to end the Filibuster. McConnell tells them "You promised me you wouldn't do that!"

The say "How does it feel to be lied to, asshole, after you spent four years supporting Trump lying to the country over 20,000 times?"

Wonder how it would feel to him to be on the receiving end?

I hope they pass that mid-way solution where you have to be physically present and talk for hours and hours. Leaves less time for telling lies and appearing on pretend-news programs.

...promise him they'll never vote to abolish the filibuster. Then they have a vote, and both vote to abolish the filibuster. Then they say:

"Now you know what it was like when you said we can't appoint a SCOTUS Justice so close to an election when Obama was President; and then appointed a SCOTUS Justice DURING the f--king election when TRUMP was President. And now...EAT SHIT, with our compliments."
