      It’s far easier to get rid of the filibuster; that’s a rules change that a majority of the Senate can vote into place.

      Getting rid of the Senate means replacing the constitution entirely: the structure of the Senate is the one thing amendments are not allowed to replace

          Such as adding districts that span states by population a senator as well, if only to slightly dilute the smaller states power.

          You would have multi-state districts and maybe one for California, if there was only 10 added, for example.
