That means the filibuster remains an issue, unless we get rid of it. Sanity Claws Mar 2021 #3
I agree that we need to get rid of the filibuster by lowering the vote from 60 to 50 plus VP. nkpolitics1212 Mar 2021 #4

Waiting until the 2022 election will not take care of the filibuster.

I've responded to you a couple of times when you've made posts in the past that sound so convincing and like you just KNOW FOR A FACT that this is what's going to happen because you come from the future.

One of the posts you made back before the election seemed so questionable to me that I responded to you regarding my confusion about how you could possibly be so sure. I don't think you responded back but in all honesty I don't remember.

It was about the Senate races and all the ones we were going to win and the ones they were gong to lose. Well, we now know that you COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG!

And now you've started again with your arrogant and unreasonable confidence with this:

"Democrats will win every Democratic held US Senate seat up for re-election in 2022 except NH(Hassan-D).NH is due to the likely chance of Governor Sununu-R running for the US Senate against Hassan.

And then you added this:

"Democrats will win 2 Republican held US Senate seats up for re-election in 2022.
51)PA(OPEN Toomey-R) OPEN seat, Top Tier Democratic nominee(Fetterman-D) vs sacrificial lamb Republican nominee.
52)WI(Johnson-R) controversial incumbent from a swing state. Democratic challenger Alex Lasry-D is the
Senior VP of the Milwaukee Bucks and the son of the owner of the Milwaukee Bucks- Marc Lasry. Former US Senator Herb Kohl-D was the owner of the Milwaukee Bucks before he became a US Senator."

And your op:
"2022 US Senate Election Prediction- Democrats will end up with 52 US Senate seats."

You do this every now and again and in all honesty it really pisses me off...... You don't cite any sources, you don't give any background regarding what had led you or others' to these predictions, you give no context, and on and on. One of the things I've always respected about DU is that when someone states a prediction or even gives an opinion, most of the time they provide information regarding what led them to their conclusion.

I'm not a trouble-maker on DU and hardly ever "call anyone out." Having said that, I think you're full of bullsh**. I wouldn't be having this reaction if you hadn't stated (almost as though you had come from the future and absolutely KNEW) which Senates races we'd win this past November - and as I said before, and as we all now know, YOU COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE WRONG....
