"Should Dems blow up the filibuster to codify Roe" is interesting strategic Q, even if it isn't likely. Rs have a clear path to a trifecta in 2025. With filibuster intact, they'd need 60 votes for a national abortion ban; post-Roe status quo keeps abortion legal in blue states. — PolitiTweet.org

But if there's no filibuster, or a carve-out for abortion, Rs can pass a federal abortion ban with 51 votes in 2025. Do Dems think they'd just blow up the filibuster to do this anyway? Does that change their risk assessment? Probably moot, they don't have 50+VP votes rn. — PolitiTweet.org
