Nothing works at all there. Two of their favorite excuses/rationalizations are pure gold for them....
"Manchin and Sinema are blocking progress!"
"Look, people needed to vote so we got two more senators..." The fucking chutzpah of this annoys me to no end. It's not even wrong - it's a joke.
There are probably ~35 dem senators who have said that just for a Roe law - they'd do a filibuster carve out. But when you link redditors to a lib website that explains that - they just say "Look, we don't know how things really will go if we get two more senators. Voting is..."
You're accurately foretelling the future, I just think it's always important to remember that first bit & throw it back in their faces

Argh!
it's not about changing their mind it's about upsetting them. Hopefully enough that they stop saying shit like this.
