re: Trump says he won't sign any new bills until Save Act passed....this is the way right here

We elected the correct POTUS, now we the people need to elect better congressional representation.

That's the problem and solution. Folks here continually complain about Congress, yet we the people are responsible for their being elected. I understand "we" can do nothing about blue state elections, but there is plenty of red state congressional representatives that need to go.

He’s the polar opposite of a lame duck.

Trump is giving the RINOs an ultimatum:

Pass the SAVE Act and survive or DON’T pass it and he will endorse Paxton and a Thune primary challenger in 2028.

They’re already losing McConell and Tillis this cycle. Murkowski is likely gone in 2028 too. The RINOs in the Senate will take a beating with their numbers if they don’t pass this.

Would require blowing up the filibuster. Democrats are going to use that to destroy the country next time they have both houses and the presidency.

And you think not going back to the filibuster as it was intended is the only thing stopping democrats from going full authoritarian?

The people who have told us already that they are going full authoritarian?

So, instead of doing everything possible to keep the authoritarians out of office, like implementing voter ID, you want to do nothing so as not to upset the authoritarians?

How can you not see the foolishness of that plan? How can you believe that the only thing stopping democrats from going full authoritarian is the inaction of Republicans?

You guys live your lives scared. That's not how America was founded. When did conservatives switch to a can't-do attitude?

But, by all means - please educate me and others how in this 21st century, proving one is a legal citizen and obtaining an ID - among the simplest things most people need anyway for any number of things in day to day life…is somehow “suppressing” someone when it comes to the act of casting a vote.

This is a genuine reaction for people who don’t understand what’s in the bill. Obtaining or already having an ID or drivers license isn’t the problem.

Because the devil is in the details with regard to voter registration for students, elderly, and low income voters:

Primarily issue being that Drivers license would no longer be sufficient to register to vote. The change would require a passport or birth certificate.

That’s going to make it harder for college students to register

Many people do not have their birth certificate

Many people do not have a passport

Many midgets don't currently have birth certificates!

Lol let me guess is it racist as well?

Nope. So you’re taking the issue seriously or making light of it?

Bringing up stuff like midgets and racism doesn’t indicate a serious engagement.

Because I think anyone who wants to should just be able to vote!

Motor voter backed up by bullshite dem same day registration destroyed DL as a dependable form of ID.

Lol what numbers support Save Act destroys a capability to vote?
