Why is this downvoted? Harry Reid literally eliminated the ability of the minority party to filibuster a presidential nominee.[1]

So the Democrats are basically complaining that they can't stop a Trump nomination, but only because they changed the rules themselves.

You can’t possibly argue in good faith that the republicans would not have changed it anyway.

Perhaps not, however democrats should not complain when they set precedent knowing full well they will end up regretting it later.

OF course not. It's just ironic the Democrats themselves eliminated a rule that could have helped them now.

It would not have helped them now because it would be gone
