The
Hill - President Trump and
Senate Majority Leader John
Thune (R-S.D.) clashed on Monday over the idea of canceling the
Senate’s August recess to debate the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE
America) Act, Trump’s No. 1 legislative priority.
Thune warned against wasting time
on a bill that has already failed multiple times on the Senate floor, while
rebuffing Trump’s repeated demands that the Senate abolish the filibuster to
pass the election reform bill.
The Republican leader noted that
Trump has already heard directly from other GOP senators that there aren’t
enough votes to change the Senate’s rules.
