"We can only lose the midterms if we allow ourselves to lose the midterms. if we are foolish, stupid, and unwise. But if we terminate the filibuster, as we should do, and immediately vote for the Save America Act, then we will not lose an election for a hundred years."
President Trump called for eliminating the Senate filibuster and passing the Save America Act, claiming it would guarantee Republicans would not lose an election for a century.
