Changing the constitution is still on the table. Republicans are one state away from having 3/4. Be careful what you wish for. ;-)
Either way, I think it is important to remember that what goes around comes around. The people who were fine with Obama using executive orders to go around Congress should be concerned about Trump having the same power. Or bemoaning the filibuster when it thwarts the Democrat majority...until Republican take the Senate. I truly believe that the losers always want to change the rules and the winners want things to stay the same....until the situation is reversed.
