President Donald Trump stated that he has not considered replacing Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) amid ongoing discussions regarding the passage of the SAVE America Act. Trump made these comments to reporters on Monday, emphasizing his support for Thune and urging the Senate to pass his voting proposal without taking a recess. He expressed that if the filibuster is terminated, it would allow for quicker passage of legislation. Trump also criticized the current Senate leadership and remarked on the importance of completing the SAVE America Act before the upcoming midterm elections. The SAVE America Act aims to require proof of citizenship and photo ID for voter registration in federal elections and includes provisions related to transgender policy.
