In a tweet Saturday, the President said republicans in the Senate will never win if they don’t go to a 51-vote majority, adding they are just wasting time.
The 60 votes required for many major legislative efforts is said to be a key reason for the failure of the health care reform in the Senate.
President Trump went on to call the rule very outdated.
Earlier Saturday, President Trump also put the alleged Russia meddling theory to rest, after it was revealed the firm Fusion GPS, which was behind the infamous Steele Dossier, also did work for Russia.
The President said on Twitter that Russia was working against him during the 2016 election because he campaigned on cheaper oil prices and a strong military.
He previously claimed Russian officials wanted Hillary Clinton to win because she would have weakened our nation’s defenses.
Earlier this week, the Senate Judiciary Committee questioned a victim of the firm and he revealed the company was hired by Russia to run a smear campaign against the President in an effort to lift Russian sanctions.
