Other Democrats need to copy John Fetterman

Yes. But for a Republican even he’s a joke. -
He’s right

Eh, these psychos won by a big enough margin it’s clear this is what the psycho Republican electorate wanted, dem help or not.

This is good. Requiring 20% of senators to object alone is a very good step. At the very least it raises the bar for coordination which makes it much more difficult to actually do a coup. That said laws will do nothing to stop bad faith legal theories (of which there are still a few that I know of!) from overturning election results so we do have to hope that ~half of a given party’s senators aren’t brain damaged so to avoid the courts.

It really helps when your opponent is a joke -
The “easier” path requires constitutional amendments to reduce the power of the senate making it basically useless like the House of Lords in Westminster systems. A lot of people believe that abolishing the senate would require unanimous consent from the states because of one particular clause of the constitution. I personally don’t buy it (all new amendments supersede existing amendments or constitutional language) but it’s a widely held belief.

There's far more similarities in party operation and intra-party politics between the GOP and the Bolsheviks than I'm comfortable with. Their shared intellectual roots might have something to do with it. I forget who said it but 'neocons* are the descendants of disillusioned Bolsheviks' is an argument that I'm buying into more and more. *maga people being themselves disillusioned neocons
