1918: oh no progressives are filibustering war money. let’s create “cloture” to cut them off with 2/3rds of voting senators 1972: oh no filibusters are eating up floor time, let’s make a two-track system to dodge them 1975: oh no, 2/3rds is a lot, let’s make it a flat 60 votes — PolitiTweet.org

@HumphreyBohun Saving the filibuster during the Bush years was a mistake. And the GOP didn’t have to get around filibusters in the Trump years — they didn’t have a legislative agenda to pass so just went all in on judges and taxes, which were already filibuster-proof https://t.co/p0gfMV7yKW — PolitiTweet.org

2013: oh no, the GOP is using filibusters to cut off our nominees and legislation. better make an exception for executive nominees only. 2017: oh no, a SCOTUS justice is being filibustered. better carve that out too, but leave the legislative filibuster in place for reasons — PolitiTweet.org
