Protected by those provisions. >> the president talked about the nuclear option and getting these things passed with a lower threshold. is that possible? you know, is that -- does that math work? >> reporter: no for two reasons. first, mitch mcconnell has made it very, very clear that he does not want to see the legislative filibuster, which is what were talking about here, removed. he does not want to see that go from 60 to 50 votes because he knows a republican majority is not a permanent thin...
