There are some limitations to the Filibuster:

  • things that don't require a senate vote don't get a filibuster
  • confirmation hearings for secretaries and judges don't get a filibuster
  • certain types of bill such as budgets, so long as they avoid specifically off limit contents, don't get a filibuster so long as they can pass the house again

Also of note is Trump's term could get a lot shorter if after the midterm elections the 53 GOP senate seats became closer to 40 and/or if enough GOP were convinced to vote to remove Trump.

Any Democrat is better than Any Republican.
