David Gergen: “The president has a right to fire him for that. It is a firing offense. The question is, who can prosecute this war…”

Maintaining the status quo with regard to the filibuster is unacceptable for him.

If he comes out and throws cold water on this, then I don't think it goes anywhere.

One more sign that he just doesn't give a damn how he changes our traditions and overrides our norms.

I think, basically, this is about power. I think he wants to cripple Joe Biden before he ever gets started.
