No, the GOP is not nuking the filibuster
There are likely at least 5 votes to keep the filibuster in the GOP Senate, and possibly 10:
> Thom Tillis (R-NC)
> Mitch McConnell (R-KY)
> Lisa Murkowski (R-AK)
> John Thune (R-ND)
> John Barrasso (R-WY)
Probable votes:
> John Cornyn (R-TX)
> Kevin Cramer (R-ND)
> James Lankford (R-OK)
> Susan Collins (R-ME)
> Rand Paul (R-KY)
It's interesting that this is probably the most vocal opposition to a Trump idea that Senators have given Trump in a while.
Possibly because they know this is not something that can be overturned later on.
