He demurred on whether he thinks Donald Trump will be his opponent, saying he\u2019s not even sure if there\u2019ll be a Republican Party.<\/li>\n<li>He signaled that he\u2019s\u00a0<strong>open to curtailing or getting rid of the Senate filibuster<\/strong>\u00a0if the chamber remains deadlocked on key issues. This raises the prospect of an all-out brawl over Senate rules.
