"So in order to get it, you're going to need Democrat votes. We've added two things to it: no men in women's sports and no transgender mutilization of our children. We don't want our - the - it's mutilization of our children, and we don't want that."
"I wanted to add two more to it because they're, I say, 95%, maybe 100%. That should be the easiest thing to get passed that you've ever had."
President Trump has been promoting federal voter ID legislation for months, claiming widespread election fraud and non-citizen voting despite lack of evidence. House Republicans passed the bill in February, but it faces significant obstacles in the Senate due to unified Democratic opposition and the 60-vote threshold requirement. Recently, Trump has added two amendments to the SAVE America Act: banning transgender athletes from women's sports and prohibiting gender-affirming care for minors nationwide. Trump believes these additions will pressure Democrats to support the voter ID requirements. He claims polling shows 95-100% support for these culture war provisions and has instructed Speaker Mike Johnson to incorporate them into the legislation.
