This bears repeating:

Some of Harry Reid’s legacy will live on, however. During his time as majority leader of the Senate, Reid ended the 60-vote threshold rule for most presidential appointments. He wanted to prevent filibusters and make it easier for Obama to push through his nominations in the Senate.

Now with Trump entering the White House, the president-elect will only need a simple majority to usher in his own administration.

So for that - we thank you, Harry.
