Trump reveals fate of senators who oppose SAVE America Act
President Donald Trump said he will “NEVER” endorse any senator who votes against his SAVE America Act.
“Get your Senators, REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT, to VOTE ‘YES’ ON ‘THE SAVE AMERICA ACT,’” Trump said. “I WILL NEVER (EVER!) ENDORSE ANYONE WHO VOTES AGAINST ‘SAVE AMERICA!!!’”
If passed and signed into law, the SAVE America Act, which stands for the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, would require proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote and a valid photo ID to vote.
The legislation has passed the House but faces an uncertain future in the Senate.
The Senate will hold a vote on the bill, preceded by a lengthy floor debate this week, but the measure is expected to fall short of the necessary 60 votes to end debate and move to a vote.
Trump demanded additions to the bill that passed the House, including provisions ending mail-in voting, banning men from women’s sports, and prohibiting irreversible transgender procedures for minors.
“The Save America Act is one of the most IMPORTANT & CONSEQUENTIAL pieces of legislation in the history of Congress, and America itself,” Trump wrote on TruthSocial. “NO MORE RIGGED ELECTIONS! Voter I.D., Proof of Citizenship, No Rigged Mail-In Voting (We are the only Country in the World that allows this!), No Men in Women’s Sports, No Transgender MUTILIZATION of our Children.”
Trump said these are all “90% to 99% ISSUES” that only “sick, demented, or deranged people” would oppose.
“If they do, each one of these points, separately, will be used against the user in his/her political campaign for office – A guaranteed loss!” Trump said.
Trump previously said he would “not sign other Bills until this is passed.”
