Donald Trump is right: Senate Republicans should kill the filibuster - Vox
'It’s time for Trump and McConnell to end the silliness, and kill the legislative filibuster once and for all. '
'President Trump has a surprisingly sensible idea: get rid of the legislative filibuster. '
'During that news cycle, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell pushed back, saying that filibuster abolition would “fundamentally change the way the Senate has worked for a very long time. '
'But the plan also meant they had to finish health care before moving on to taxes. '
'But Senate Republicans are reticent anyway. '

A filibuster can only be broken with 60 votes, the rule that powers the filibuster can be changed, or even eliminated, with 51 votes.
