If the Democrats win a trifecta in the U.S. federal government, will they actually remove the Senate filibuster?

That's not possible as long as the right side of the court keeps reversing centuries of jurisprudence at the stroke of a pen based on an originalist philosophy. There's no way to predict whether a law will be regarded as constitutional when they're willing to change what that means in a dime.

"Would this law have been considered fine for over two centuries? Well, none of that matters, because based on my amateur historical interpretation of the Federalist Papers the thousands of judges and legislators who disagreed with me over the course of our nation's history are irrelevant, so we're going to strike it down."

How can legislatures possibly "just write constitutional laws" when that's who's making the determination about constitutionality?
