Just last week, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) triggered the ‘nuclear option’ and weakened the Senate’s vaunted filibuster to steamroll over Democratic resistance to President Trump’s nominees — the third time in six years the majority party has unilaterally changed Senate rules.”
“To top it all off, the Senate has now failed to muster enough votes to pass a simple disaster-aid bill, something that was once routine and is a failure that will affect millions of Americans.”
