GOP Senator Gives Trump’s Bonkers Plot a Reality Check

Sen. John Thune delivered a blunt “reality” check to President Donald Trump on Tuesday, warning that the president’s latest scheme to force through a controversial voting bill simply doesn’t add up in the Senate.

Trump has recently been pushing hard for passage of the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, or the SAVE Act, which would tighten federal voting rules ahead of the midterm elections.

In a fiery Truth Social post on Sunday, Trump declared the bill “supersedes everything else.” The president even attached a threat to the demand, saying he would refuse to sign other legislation until Congress passed the measure.
