Trump's Answer to GOP Election Losses: End the Filibuster -- WSJ

Dow Jones

Nov 05

WASHINGTON-President Trump urged Republican senators to jettison the filibuster to pass GOP-backed legislation and preserve power in Congress after his party suffered losses in key races during Tuesday's elections.

At a breakfast with GOP senators at the White House, the president argued that lowering the 60-vote threshold for passing most legislation in the chamber would allow the GOP to rack up policy victories that would boost its political prospects heading into next year's midterm elections. The president also said that terminating the filibuster is the only way to end the government shutdown that has stretched on for 36 days and is now the longest in history.

"We will pass legislation at levels you've never seen before and it will be impossible to beat us," Trump said. The president said Republicans should pass legislation to restrict mail-in voting and mandate that voters be required to present identification before casting ballots.
