He praised Senate Majority Leader John Thune and House Speaker Mike Johnson for doing a \u201cgreat job,\u201d while blasting Democrats as \u201ccrazed lunatics who have lost all sense of wisdom and reality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He ended the post by writing, \u201cBecause of the fact that the Democrats have gone stone cold crazy, the choice is clear \u2014 initiate the \u2018nuclear option,\u2019 get rid of the filibuster and make America great again!\u201d\u00a0Here\u2019s more:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>The directive \u2014 which came after Trump returned from several days abroad \u2014 is likely to upend efforts on Capitol Hill to bring an end to the weekslong funding impasse. And it immediately ratcheted up the pressure on Republican leaders, who have adamantly opposed eliminating the 60-vote threshold for passing legislation as a way to end the shutdown.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Top GOP lawmakers have long argued for keeping that threshold in place, asserting that the filibuster benefits Republicans \u2014 and will serve as a key safeguard against Democrats passing transformative legislation the next time they\u2019re in power.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Conservatives and Republicans are warning that eliminating the filibuster is exactly what Democrats are hoping for \u2014 a short-term win they can weaponize later when they inevitably claw back a narrow Senate majority.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ve seen this movie before. Back in 2013, then\u2013Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid blew up the filibuster for lower court judicial nominees, smugly assuming Democrats would hold power indefinitely. Four years later, Republicans turned those same rules around and used them to confirm Supreme Court justices.<\/p>\n<p>Then again\u2026<\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-1\" class=\"\" title=\"X Post\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-1&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1984101795573203242&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fusajournal.news%2F2025%2F10%2F31%2Ftrump-jumps-into-congress%2F&amp;sessionId=6b0f5b1a3ce0ad7221a2c0bd5a94f4fa5f9d6c89&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1984101795573203242\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eight days into the Schumer Shutdown, Republicans made it clear they weren\u2019t looking to change the Senate filibuster rules \u2014 and that still holds true today.
