If you want to separate yourself from the rest of the Senate pack, you’ve got to get creative. And that’s exactly what GOP Sen. Tom Cotton did when it was his turn to make the case against nuking the Senate filibuster:
🚨 BREAKING: Chuck Schumer* speaks on the Senate floor in defense of the filibuster.

Earlier today, Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer told MSNBC’s Willie Geist why nuking the filibuster is the only way forward:
SEN. SCHUMER admits that nuking the Senate is just about Democrats winning elections:
"They're saying things like ‘I'll lose my election if the legislature is allowed to do this in my state’”
“We'll lose our majority" pic.twitter.com/l6f13OQ34x

We’ve gotta say, Schumer’s arguments in favor of preserving the filibuster are a lot more compelling. Big thanks to Sen. Cotton for digging those up!
Well played. https://t.co/hnxuXGoEP5
