The filibuster is not in the Constitution and serves only to make the Senate nonfunctional.
      Ideally, no legislation would be rammed through strictly along party lines, and those in the majority would work with the minority so that all legislation is passed with broad bipartisan support. Barring that, I think a nonfunctional Senate is the next best thing.

        The Biden admin said that bills are bipartisan, even when Republicans don't vote on them...

              You were obsessed enough to believe Trump's STS campaign.

                          Wife and I have been trying to eat more healthy less unhealthy, and we discovered our local Mexican/Steak House had Chalupas - two per order.
                          We thought we'd just share - one each.
                          When they delivered the meal, it was two BIG Chalupas on a large oval plate, PLENTY enough for a meal for each of us.
                          I think that's gonna be our standard Tuesday Night Thing.

                            That's just not at all true. Moreover, she's actually in office writing and influencing actual policy.

                              There are a significant number of Trump loyalists out there, who are upset that he is not Prez, and are willing to donate when he asks for their money. Do you call them out for this obsession?

                              It is legitimate to describe the current GOP as the Trump party, as no one else has as much influence.

                              Or are you claiming that Trump is yesterday's news, and should just withdraw from the public stage or otherwise be ignored?

                                Are they not free to spend their own money as they see fit?
