Trump Issues Major Election Integrity Demand to Republicans: SAVE or Shutdown

Over the past few years, Democrats have been trying to make it easier than ever for illegal aliens to vote. Having alienated millions of American citizens with their failed policies, Democrats have resorted to trying to make it simpler for non-citizens to vote in a desperate and pathetic attempt to stay in power.

Former President Donald Trump is now hoping to combat this in a big way. The stakes of this presidential election could not be higher, so it’s more crucial than ever that Republicans step up to increase election security.

On Tuesday, he called for Republicans in Congress to allow a full government shutdown if the SAVE Act isn’t passed to protect election integrity.

From Daily Wire:
“If Republicans in the House, and Senate, don’t get absolute assurances on Election Security,” Trump said on Truth Social, “THEY SHOULD, IN NO WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM, GO FORWARD WITH A CONTINUING RESOLUTION ON THE BUDGET. THE DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO ‘STUFF’ VOTER REGISTRATIONS WITH ILLEGAL ALIENS. DON’T LET IT HAPPEN – CLOSE IT DOWN!!!”

The SAVE Act, which passed the House as a standalone bill in July with some bipartisan support but never got taken up by the Democrat-controlled Senate, aims to require that individuals show proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in elections for federal office and pushes states to remove non-citizens from voter rolls.

Election Security Needs To Be Protected

Indeed, this is quite an interesting play from Trump. It’s also a call that Republicans should absolutely heed.

It should go without saying that American elections should be decided solely by American citizens. Anyone who can’t be bothered to take a legal path to citizenship shouldn’t have a say in who our next president is.

Sadly, thanks to Democrats, it’s easier than ever for illegal aliens to vote. During Joe Biden’s presidency, Democrats have allowed the border crisis to get exponentially worse. This has made it possible for millions of illegal immigrants to flood into our nation.

Since these illegal aliens are in this country largely thanks to Democrat policies or lack thereof, liberal lawmakers both hope and assume that the vast majority of these migrants will vote blue. Democrats have no problem with the prospect of allowing our elections to be largely decided by non-American citizens if that’s what it takes to keep themselves in power.

A government shutdown may seem drastic. Desperate times, however, call for desperate measures.

Millions of Americans are struggling just to put food on the table in Biden’s America. If Kamala Harris wins this election, life in America will likely get far worse.

Given how tight this race appears to be, we can’t afford any failures in election integrity. Indeed, even the smallest loopholes in election security could push Harris over the edge. Democrats have already shown that there is nothing that they won’t do when it comes to beating Trump. That’s why Republicans need to step up to keep them in line by protecting the integrity of this election.

Key Takeaways:

  • Trump calls for Republicans to allow government shutdown if the SAVE Act isn’t passed.
  • The SAVE Act forces voters to show proof of U.S. citizenship to register.
  • Republicans must step up to protect election integrity.
