Never in the history of the country, never in the history of the country have we produced more for a president and somebody that’s led his party than we’ve done together.
The filibuster is nondemocratic. It has been used to the disarray of the Congress. And, certainly, it hasn’t been anything that has helped -- been helpful to the American people. It’s got to go.
