Trump warns of political backlash as national voter-ID push stalls in Senate
TL;DR Summary
President Donald Trump is pressuring Republicans to back the Save America Act, vowing political retribution against lawmakers who vote against it and arguing for strict citizenship proof and voter-ID requirements. The bill would also push ideas like banning mail-in ballots and sharing voter rolls with the DHS, but it has already failed in the Senate and faces steep odds to pass. If it advances, it would still need 60 votes, and Trump has signaled he won’t endorse opponents who oppose the measure.
