The majority leader told POLITICO Playbook that the votes aren’t there to eliminate the Senate’s 60-vote threshold on legislation.

Some things never change.

President Donald Trump continues to plead for the end of the legislative filibuster, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell keeps saying no.

“As I’ve told him repeatedly, the votes aren’t there to change it,” the Republican leader told POLITICO Playbook’s Anna Palmer and Jake Sherman in an interview Wednesday. “They just aren’t there. It’s not just me.”

The president’s latest call to eliminate the 60-vote threshold to shepherd through legislation came during a private meeting Tuesday with House and Senate Republicans, with Trump telling lawmakers to change the rules before Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) does.
