“President Donald Trump has changed his pitch to wary Republicans who are hesitant to undo a decades-old safeguard in the Senate: if they do nothing, he may be the last Republican president,” Fox News reports.
“Trump has long demanded that Republicans nuke the filibuster, which has blocked key parts of his agenda, to pass the SAVE America Act. He has warned that Democrats would eliminate the firewall themselves if they regain power, allowing them to push through their most partisan priorities.”
“Now, he’s warning that if Republicans don’t pull the trigger, Washington, D.C. and Puerto Rico will become states and elect only Democrats to Congress, likely foiling the chances of a future Republican winning the White House.”
