Trump won the presidency without the SAVE act. If they lose in these upcoming elections, it won't be because immigrants are flooding the election boxes. It'll be based on this past year of chaos and economic decline.

Kamala will win this time buddy don’t stress

What are you even talking about

Losses in the first midterm after a president has become elected are not typically related to the economy or the president’s popularity. The tendency for the president’s party to lose seats in Congress during midterm elections is one of the most consistent patterns in American politics. Political scientists often call it the “midterm penalty.”

The president’s party often loses support in Congress during midterm elections due to several psychological and behavioral factors. Supporters of the winning party tend to feel satisfied after a presidential victory, which lowers their urgency to vote, while the losing party is energized and motivated to oppose the president. Midterms also function as a referendum on the president’s performance, so voters who are dissatisfied with the administration often vote against the president’s party. Additionally, many voters instinctively prefer balanced government and may support the opposition to create a check on presidential power. Combined with lower turnout that favors highly motivated voters.

The only two exceptions in the last 100 years during a president’s first midterm (since taking office) are Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1934 and George W. Bush in 2002

Thank you the accurate mid term effect history. Everything is pointing to a repeat this year possibly amplified by Trump’s unpopularity, Iran war unpopularity and most economic indicators going in the wrong direction. Could very well be a huge blue wave taking both Senate and House.

The SAVE act is a solution to a problem that does not exist. There has been zero evidence of ppl who shouldn't be allowed to vote, voting, in any numbers larger than 2 digits. It's nonsense.

It’s just about making it harder for ppl with little spare time and driving down turnout. If we had 100% turnout Rs wouldn’t hold power again.

You Trump supporters just be posting to post. You don’t have no essence or substance to your viewpoints. You just be talking out of your rear ends. Then you all just lie and accept it. When someone else may lie or do something wrong the world on fire. You all point of view is so slavish. All you want to do keep American the same: to be unfair to a large portion of the population.
Now I get it, I basically just describe Trump, that’s why you all are Trump supporters. You all are one in the same.
