You've written this twice now and I tried to reply the first time, but you deleted it. That statement is ambiguous, but my "require 60 votes" was meant for the funding bill, as evidenced by my other comments which mention only needing a simple majority to change the rules.
- throwup238 1y agoMy apologies for the deletion, I didn't like the way I phrased it the first time because what I wrote was too ambiguous and didn't cover the nuances of mid-term rule changes. That said, I don't see how "would have to change the Senate rules which currently require 60 votes" is ambiguous. The "which" is clearly referring to "change the Senate rules". You just misspoke and I can't be expected to read entirely out of tree replies that you make six minutes before my second comment (which was well after my first deleted comment).
