The Republicans can't block anything unless the democrats agree to allow it.
Like yes there are a lot of self-imposed rules in the Senaate, but it's fundamentally on the Democrats that they can't pull together 51 votes to tweak the rules.

- justrealist 3y agoThat's not true, there are 50 functionally-democrat senators. There were 51 with Feinstein.
