Disgusting! Majority Leader Thune Is Already Waffling and Backing Away from Passing SAVE Act for Secure US Elections (Video)

CNN’s Harry Enton finds 83% of Americans believe in photo voter ID. Will spineless Republicans push it through the Senate?

CNN’s Harry Enten released his latest polling on mandatory photo voter ID in the US. The United States is one of the only free countries that does not require voter photo ID to cast a ballot. In California, the radical Democrats made it a law that you cannot even ask for a photo ID to vote. It’s a crime!

Enten found that 83% of Americans support photo voter ID. This is much higher than at any time in the past decade.

But Senate Majority Leader John Thune is not convinced that the Senate has time to waste on the Save Act.

On Tuesday, Thune told reporters.

Majority Leader Thune: I guess I would just remind people that the coin in the realm in the Senate is floor time. There’s a finite amount of it, and we have a lot of things we have to do. There’s a housing bill that’s awaiting action, hopefully a market structure bill, possibly permitting reform, farm bill, highway bill. You can go right down the list. Russia sanctions, there are a whole bunch of things that could be teed up for action on the floor of the Senate.

You have to make some judgments, and the conference will have a conversation about that. I’ve committed to that, that we will talk about that idea and determine whether or not what the conference’s views are about it and how they want to proceed.

As I said, we will vote on the Save Act, but exercising or triggering a talking filibuster has ramifications, implications that I think everybody needs to be aware of. We will have those discussions, but that obviously ties the floor up for an indefinite amount of time with not only unlimited debate, but also unlimited amendments.
