Senate Poised to Once Again Collapse Into Chaos Over SAVE Act 

Originally published at: Senate Poised to Once Again Collapse Into Chaos Over SAVE Act

President Donald Trump on Monday morning called on Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) to cancel the upper chamber’s lengthy August recess until they pass the SAVE America Act — the voter suppression bill the president and his MAGA allies have been obsessively pushing Congress to pass for months. “John Thune should not allow the…

I think I see another flaw in DonOLD- he has problems with timing. Well timing and evidence that can stand up to changing how people vote when the states are in control voting.

Do not assume you have my consent.

Oh, so Republicans care about consent now? For themselves only, of course.

“The SAVE Act would cause chaos around the country.”
–Republican Congressional Leadership

That’s what it’s supposed to do.

The federal government will create chaos (legally?), then simply must step into local elections to determine that all Republicans “really” won and must be sworn in. The Court should be able to figure it all out in two weeks.

Or maybe two years.

At this point it’s about loudly establishing an excuse for the impending L. Like that guy who tells you he’s “recovering from a calf pull” right before a game of hoops. You can’t see him limping, but if you beat him it won’t be because you were better.

Did he REALLY say “a full and deep throated SAVE AMERICA ACT” ??? Obvious reference to the movie. Who’s playing which charactor?

Somebody needs to tell Trump that he isn’t going to be President past 2028. The Republicans need the filibuster going forward.

As ‘full’ and ‘deep’ are side by side, I hope he meant full-throated as in enthusiastic. rah-rah, win one for the Gipper and had just transposed the words. He’s a nasty old fuck though, so I’d guess his subtext is his desire to be serviced and for R Senate to experience humiliation on a grand scale.

Susan Collins is in favor of Trump’s SAVE Act, even though the state of Maine is against it. Badly out of touch with her state on this one. She announced her support in February 2026.

> “stupidity always brings LOSING & DEATH.”

A very true statement, remarkably enough, considering the source. As evidence, one needs only to look at effects of the US presidential elections held in November of 2016 and 2024.

> I will vote to stay in session unless we have passed the SAVE America Act. They deserve secure elections,” Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) chimed in.

I would like to hear esteemed Senator Rick Scott’s oratory skills with reference to factors which have proved to affect the outcome of elections so far.

> Even if the Senate stays in session over August, Thune does not have the votes to pass the SAVE America Act.

The last time, the House of Representatives sent members home to allow some sort of procedural tactic so that the Housing Affordability Bill would fall flat. The president did not veto that bill. (Perhaps he was up all night, busy in his meme studio.) It did not get a veto, and is now law. Anyway, I am more pleased with Republican politicians being stuck in Washington rather than out on the campaign trail back home. Especially with the losing hand they have regarding the issues I mentioned above.

> “Instead of pointing the finger at Republicans, they might think about going after the people who are stopping it on the floor.

Excellent idea. Republicans having had the presidency for the last 19 months and have had majorities in the US House and Senate for what seems to be forever, let’s get into a blame war as to who controlled the people’s business for the last 18 months. Let’s do that starting four months before the 2026 election.

Let that war of words start with: 1) the Republican war of choice against Iran at this particular time, 2) Republican trade tariffs that have made the US hard to deal with, and 3) Republicans alienating our military allies.

We already know, from Minneapolis and hereafter, that, “bloodless if the left let’s it be,” was never meant to be an accurate characterization.

O.K. He’s skirting past Congress and has asked the Supreme court to grant his wish. No doubt the lackeys will seriously consider his request. News flash at WaPo.

John Thune should not allow the United States Senate to “leave town” until it passes The Save America Act or, far better still, TERMINATES THE FILIBUSTER, where Republicans can then quickly pass everything they ever dreamed of, including a full and deep throated SAVE AMERICA ACT

“Don’t care how, I want it now!”
