President Trump on Sunday threatened to not sign any bills into law until the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act is approved by the Senate, doubling down on his push to change voting requirements ahead of the midterm elections.

“I, as President, will not sign other Bills until this is passed, AND NOT THE WATERED DOWN VERSION – GO FOR THE GOLD: MUST SHOW VOTER I.D. & PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP: NO MAIL-IN BALLOTS EXCEPT FOR MILITARY – ILLNESS, DISABILITY…,” the president wrote in his Sunday morning Truth Social post.


If the president doesn’t sign a bill, it becomes law in 10 days. Sundays don’t count, and if congress adjourns during the period, it counts as a veto.

    Fine with me. Also the SAVE act must not pass. 85% of married women WILL NOT be able to vote. Plain and simple.

    This is a great way to attack our right to vote and Republicans hate women, so they would love for women not to be able to vote again.

        The bill requires that a voter’s name match their birth certificate, and many women (and some men) changed their names when they got married.

          Having already brought this point up with a MAGAt at work, she honestly thinks they will make exceptions for all married women.

          The mental gymnastics and denial of reality is exhausting.
