I've asked before, got no reply, so here it is again:
What do the Dems need to abolish the filibuster? 51 (with #HeelsUp) or 60 votes.
Given that they are pressuring Manchin and Sinema HARD for their votes, I'm assuming they only need 50 Senators. If true, why the hell would the Senate allow a rule that 50 people can change rules that require 60 votes to pass. (Does my comment make sense?) It just seems absurd to me.

- They need 51 to change senate rules. Manchin is currently the most powerful senator.
