    I prefer incremental gains that are not easily reversed. Like the ACA and the latest climate change legislation.

      You like the filibuster because you like your losses to be untempered by gains.

      You’re trying to coast on the ACA from 15 years ago, when the only thing you liked about it was how the filibuster prevented the public option from happening.

        I like the filibuster because without it the ACA wouldn’t have lasted 15 years.
