Trump Wants to End the U.S. Senate Filibuster — But What Is the Filibuster, and How Does It Work?

Roger Stone takes a deep dive into the Senate filibuster: what it is, how it developed from unlimited debate to a 60‑vote threshold to force a final vote, and why Donald Trump is now calling for its end. Stone explains the cloture rule under United States Senate Rule XXII requiring three‑fifths of senators to agree just to stop debate.

He also traces historical uses of the filibuster, explores the “nuclear option” to change the rule by simple majority, and assesses the implications for legislative power, minority rights, and party control if the filibuster is abolished.
