I don't think so. Republicans need to stand firm and be prepared to explain why it is both perfectly reasonable and necessary for our democratic electoral process to demand an ID from voters.

"Democracy" in our Republic means "one person, one vote".  What's the problem with that, Chuck? Oh yeah, you want to be able to continue your longstanding practice of ballot stuffing and harvesting, registering the deceased, and collecting ballots from people who list vacant lots as their home addresses.

The problem with killing the filibuster is that unlike Republicans, Democrats would not be restrained in their efforts to socialize America.

He's 75 years old and has been in the Senate since 1999 - there's something to be said for term limits.  He has been a nightmare for this country.

As for the GOP standing firm; there aren't too many GOP conservatives left to hold the line.

I respectfully disagree with you.

We have term limits, they are called elections. Because the citizens are too stupid to understand that they are electing the wrong people time after time, there should not be a law to change/correct that. We should be teaching these voters that they are wrong, to the point that they can see and understand what they are doing is incorrect. Remember Bud Light, Target, Cracker Barrel, NFL etc. The right cannot stay together on any point. That is the problem! The Left knows that if they stay firm the Right will cave after awhile. 

I agree that Schumer has been a disaster, but more laws piled on are not the right correction. We have too many laws on the books now, we don't need more laws.

ENOUGH PLAYING "NICE"! SHUT IT DOWN UNTIL THEY CAVE (for a change).

PLease shut it down again, for the 3rd or is it 4th time, because that has worked out so well for you every other time.

[Camp]

Shut downs are not helping Democrats.

ICE was very efficient with the last one.

Go ahead and shut it down.

I used to believe that line of reasoning that being reelected means term limits.

The problem is we have a Uniparty whose main goal is not to strengthen the country, but to be relected to stay in power.

They do this by pork carveouts and directing money to groups who get them reelected by contributing to their campaigns.

Most people call this money laundering...and the money being laundered belongs to neither of them.  It belongs to us taxpayers.

Only real term limits can end this as congress has no incentive to stop laundering otherwise.

Electing Conservatives is the only way forward on this.  The filibuster is not the problem here.

Agree 100%.

Maybe.

The unintended consequence is that they know they have only X number of years to sew up that golden parachute and boodle as much up as they can, which might only intensify their self-serving corruption.

Well. We have federal judges in power for life, and some tend to do that anyway and are never removed.

Is that much difference?

[Bigun]

  And besides that, I don't want anybody telling me who I can or cannot elect.

Pubs are a bunch of "posers". If they really wanted to pass the SAVE Act they would do it. Instead, the Pubs will hide behind the filibuster and claim they need to be re-elected because they have the moral high ground.

That sounds like a defeatist attitude!
If you do not reelect them they are termed out! Very simple!

What if the colonists that came over on the Mayflower had that defeatist attitude? What would have happen to this country?

What have you done to change it? I am so tired of hearing this defeatism attitude!!!!

I have talked to Senator Ashley Moody office, Senator Rick Scott office, Congressman Carlos A. Giménez office and they did not like what they heard. I could careless because they work for us/me. I don't care how much money they raise or have, that has no bearing on my vote.

CNN Admits the Vast Majority of Americans, Including Democrats and Black Americans Support Voter ID Laws
https://townhall.com/tipsheet/dmitri-bolt/2026/02/03/cnn-poll-voter-id-n2670596

Quote:
and then 83 percent in the last year of Americans agree with Nicki Minaj, they favor photo ID to be able to vote."

"What about by party, what's the party breakdown?" the CNN host asked.

"Yeah. Normally, you might expect, hey, there'd be a big divide by party, with Republicans really for it and Democrats really against it. But not really here. I mean, just take a look here, favor voter ID to vote, you got 95 percent of Republicans, pretty much all of them, but even 71 percent of Democrats favor photo ID to vote,"
