Trump to Thune and Cornyn: I Want SAVE America Act on My Desk Before Endorsement in Texas Race

Nick Gilbertson6 Mar 2026211

President Donald Trump wants to see the SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote, on his desk before he makes an endorsement in the Texas Senate race.

Trump delivered his message to Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) and Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) on Friday in an interview with CNN’s Dana Bash.

In a post on X, Bash reported:

    And on Texas GOP Senate race, President Trump said he will make a “decision fairly shortly” but that he wants “to have the full and complete Save America Act (which Includes trans issues now) “We have to have voter ID. We have to have proof of citizenship We have to have no mail in ballots except the military, illness, disability and travel.

    We have to have no men in women’s sports — I added two things, and we have to have no transgender operations for youth.”

Cornyn and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) were neck and neck in support in Tuesday’s primary, at 42 percent and 41 percent, respectively, advancing to a runoff as neither eclipsed the 50 percent threshold. Rep. Wesley Hunt (R-TX) earned 14 percent of support.

Trump announced Wednesday he would soon make an endorsement in the runoff and called for whoever does not get his nod to drop out immediately. But Paxton said he would not drop out even if Cornyn gets the president’s coveted endorsement, to which Trump responded, “Well, that’s bad for him to say,” in a Thursday interview with Politico.

Paxton then took to X, announcing he would only consider dropping out of the race if the U.S. Senate bypassed the filibuster and advanced the SAVE America Act. The president is now looking to capitalize on the leverage Paxton created.

“The Save America Act is the most important bill the U.S. Senate could ever pass, and I’m committed to helping President Trump get it done,” Paxton wrote in a post on X. “I would consider dropping out of this race if Senate Leadership agrees to lift the filibuster and passes the SAVE America Act.”

This is hardball.
This is "Realpolitik".
This is how you do it.

Great move, Mr. Trump.
Now... don't go wobbly on us.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

  • Ah, the air is so much fresher here...
Trump needs to find out who the main Senate donors are and persuade them that no money till the SAVE Act is passed, and try to persuade the head of the GOP to do so as well.

That and every other sneaky trick they can think of.
The Republic is lost.
