With the midterm elections only months away, Republicans are desperately trying to hold on to their majority in both the House and Senate, while Democrats are trying even more desperately to take back control for themselves, which would allow them to bring President Trump’s policies to a screeching halt, and potentially even impeach the president and many in his administration.
Republican get-out-the-vote activist Scott Presler, who was credited with helping to flip Pennsylvania red in the 2024 election, has been pushing hard to convince Republican senators to support the SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship upon registering to vote, and photo ID when voting.
Democrats are furiously opposing the SAVE Act, claiming it will prevent Americans from voting. Democrats are also seeking to push Republicans from office by creating new congressional maps designed to dilute the conservative vote.
Presler posted an urgent notice on social media this week, warning that if conservatives don’t wake up and take massive action, the Democrats are going to take over. He wrote:
I need you to get mad. What don’t you understand?
The democrats gerrymandered our maps for decades, while Republicans sat back and watched — “Midwest nice” — “Utah nice.”
The democrats took down our borders, cut down fences, and allowed millions of illegal aliens to invade us. Then, they used the illegal immigration invasion to overcrowd our schools, hospitals, and housing.
Then, the democrats counted them — illegal aliens — in the Census for the specific purpose of diluting American votes — taking away House seats from legal Americans.
With 500,000 homeless and 50,000 homeless veterans, democrats pushed Americans into the streets and welcomed their new voters into taxpayer-funded homes and hotels.
Democrats watched as illegal aliens murdered our people; from rapes, to DUI, to death by opioids.
They welcomed the Cartel and MS-13 to grow like a cancer within our country.
We are nothing to the democrat party. Their own voters are nothing to them. Just pawns — just chess pieces in a game stacked against the American people.
Then, they tried to bankrupt President Trump.
Then, they stole an election from him.
Then, they fried to remove him from the ballot.
Then, they tried to imprison him.
Then, they tried to kill him.
Through immense peaceful blood, sweat, and tears, we gave President Trump the POPULAR vote in 2024. We won everything — except Senate seats down ballot because it was never in the plan to allow us a 60-seat threshold.
Democrats may be a lot of things, but they know Republican Senators will always be weaker than they are. Now, with a Republican White House, House, and Senate, our weak Republican Senate is on the verge of giving democrats ultimate power.
Even in control, Republican Senators are incapable of wield powering and delivering victories.
With 84% of Americans in agreement for photo ID and proof of citizenship, spineless jellyfish would rather deliver decline than seize this great opportunity handed to them on a golden platter.
Why aren’t you shouting to the rooftops?
Why are you scrolling social media instead of writing letters?
Why aren’t you planning a peaceful trip to DC to meet with your Members of Congress?
Why are you not calling and texting everyone you know to empower them to take action?
Courage is contagious.
We, American people, will simple not tolerate inaction. We expect results. We demand results. We will not sit back and watch our Republican Senate hand victories to the democrats because they are too busy taking weeks off instead of daring to work on behalf of the American people.
Get mad. Be peaceful, but — for the love of our nation — take peaceful, positive action.
Former Rep. Mayra Flores (R-Tex.), who is again running for U.S. Congress, replied to Presler, writing, “The problem is they keep endorsing RINOS with no backbone to fight back. This is why primaries are so important. 🇺🇸”
Fox News co-host Tomi Lahren wrote last week, “If not for @ScottPresler many of these Republican senators would not have supported the SAVE Act. They thought they could blow it off until Scott put the pressure on. Thank you, Scott. It shouldn’t take your pleading and nagging to get these so-called conservatives to DO THEIR JOBS, but we thank you for making it happen.”

“If you are incapable of wielding power as the majority, you will accomplish even less as the minority,” Presler warned.

you will accomplish even less as the minority.

Presler further sounded the alarm during an interview on Thursday, and asked if Republicans are going to allow a repeat of the 2018 election, where they lost the majority and allowed Democrats to take over.
This is day 50 of asking @LeaderJohnThune to pass the SAVE America Act.
Thank you to @sagesteele for this outstanding interview. pic.twitter.com/VVDvWepiGV

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer continues to rage against the SAVE Act.
“The SAVE Act requires a paper birth certificate or passport to register to vote. Almost 50% of Americans don’t have a passport. Millions more don’t have their paper birth certificate. All told, more than 21 million Americans could be disenfranchised. This is why the SAVE Act is dead on arrival in the Senate. Do not listen to the Republican lies. Senate Democrats will continue to fight for the right to vote for all eligible American citizens,” he wildly claimed.
RNC Chair Joe Gruters fired back, “Why are Democrats making this an issue when a MAJORITY of Americans agree that only American citizens should vote in our elections? PASS THE SAVE AMERICA ACT!”

President Donald Trump posted the following warning last week, which he still has pinned to the top of his Truth Social page:
We cannot let the Democrats get away with NO VOTER I.D. any longer. These are horrible, disingenuous CHEATERS. They have all sorts of reasons why it shouldn’t be passed, and then boldly laugh in the backrooms after their ridiculous presentations. If it weren’t such a serious matter, it would be considered a TOTAL JOKE!
No Voter I.D. is even crazier, and more ridiculous, than Men playing in Women’s Sports, Open Borders, or Transgender for Everyone. Republicans must put this at the top of every speech — It is a CAN’T MISS FOR RE-ELECTION IN THE MIDTERMS, AND BEYOND! Even Democrat Voters agree, 85%, that there should be Voter I.D.
It’s only the Political “Leaders,” Crooked Losers like Schumer and Jeffries, that have no shame, and explain why it’s “racist,” and every other thing that they can think of. This is an issue that must be fought, and must be fought, NOW! If we can’t get it through Congress, there are Legal reasons why this SCAM is not permitted. I will be presenting them shortly, in the form of an Executive Order.
I hope the Supreme Court realizes, as they “painstakingly” review the very simple topic of Country Saving Tariffs (Those same Tariffs that have been used, by other Countries, against the U.S.A. to drain it of its Treasure and Security — for many years!), and all sorts of other things, that are making our Country Rich, Powerful, and Safe Again, that these Corrupt and Deranged Democrats, if they ever gain power, will not only be adding two States to our roster of 50, with all of the baggage thereto, but will also PACK THE COURT with a total of 21 Supreme Court Justices, THEIR DREAM, which they will submit easily and rapidly when they immediately move to terminate the Filibuster, probably in their first week, or sooner. Our Country will never be the same if they allow these demented and evil people to knowingly, and happily, destroy it. Thank you for your attention to this matter — SAVE AMERICA! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP
