'Too Bad for Republican Party...': Trump Reacts to Thune Saying There's No Path for SAVE America Act
Trump says Senate Republicans have the votes for the SAVE America bill as Thune says the measure lacks majority support.
- President Donald Trump is pressuring Senate Majority Leader John Thune to pass the SAVE America Act, though Thune assesses the legislation lacks sufficient support among Republican senators.
- The president has prioritized the SAVE America Act, which faces steep hurdles as Senate Republicans lack the 60 votes required to overcome a Democratic filibuster on the full measure.
- Trump recently insisted Thune possesses the necessary votes, prompting the South Dakotan to retort, "That must be a different form of math," lashing out at the president's flippant denials of reality.
- Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said the chance of the Senate passing a "real SAVE Act" before the August break is "basically zero." Happy to be wrong about this, but I don't think I am.
- Senate Republicans face a fragile majority as they look to head home for August, with some party members privately questioning Thune's leadership stability if the president continues aggressive public attacks.
