Donald Trump says Senate GOP not ending filibuster would be "one of the greatest mistakes"
“Not terminating the Filibuster, and getting EVERYTHING even 'dreamt' of, approved, when the Dems will definitely do so, will go down as being one of the greatest mistakes in the Political History of America. So sad!!!”

President Donald Trump on Thursday used Truth Social to press Senate Republicans to act on his agenda before Democrats take control of the chamber. He singled out the Senate’s inaction on the House-passed SAVE America Act, which he has described as including voter-ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements, and the chamber’s continued use of the filibuster. Trump has spent the past year pushing Republicans to remove the 60-vote threshold, saying it has stalled his priorities; Majority Leader John Thune has said the votes are not there. The post highlights Trump’s effort to influence GOP senators during their last weeks in the majority, as Democrats prepare to set the Senate’s agenda.
