Killing the filibuster is something that’s come up a few times recently in response to (reasonable) questions like, “Well, how are you going to get [insert big, ambitious policy proposal] through the Senate?” It’s something that Warren in particular has been enthusiastic about, basically saying it’s undemocratic. But other Democrats, like Sanders, seem worried about how it could hurt the Democrats when they are inevitably out of power in the Senate again. And all of this discussion is rather hypothetical because before Democrats can really start arguing about getting rid of the filibuster, they need to win back the Senate.
