Trump on El-Sayed’s win in Michigan: ‘Great news for the Republican Party’
Trump says Democrats would end the filibuster and backs his voting bill, while researchers estimate the citizenship rule could affect more than 20 million voters.
- President Trump highlighted Abdul El-Sayed's win in Michigan's Democratic Senate primary as a sign Democrats would abolish the filibuster if in power, which he claims would lead to major Democratic gains and make him the last Republican president.
- El-Sayed, a Democratic candidate backed by Senator Bernie Sanders and focused on ending the filibuster, will face former Representative Mike Rogers for a Michigan Senate seat not won by Republicans in 30 years.
- Trump's SAVE America Act requires proof of citizenship to register to vote and photo ID to vote, which critics say could affect millions of eligible voters lacking documentation, although supporters dispute claims of disenfranchisement.
- The Senate remains deadlocked on the bill due to the filibuster, with Senate Majority Leader John Thune ruling out its removal despite Trump's urgings.
