I think this is a way out for the DEMS to say we tried but not our fault since parlimentarian rejected our argument. The only way I see us getting legalization is getting 10+ Republicans or keeping the House and picking up 2-3 more senate seats which is plausible. Then if Sinema/Manchin don't want to get rid of the filibuster or reform it Dems would still have 2-3 more senators in favor of it. Dems have a great shot of winning Wisconsin, PA, Ohio with a moderate Dem running there.
