White House says Trump was Referring to SAVE Act Not Nationalizing Elections

White House press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday that President Donald Trump's demand to "nationalize" elections was a reference to a piece of voting legislation.

More specifically, he's lying that the SAVE Act is "voter ID." It creates a requirement at the time of *registration* to vote which is deliberately calculated to make traditional voter registration drives impossible. It is not what people usually think of and many states have, ID check at the polls.[image or embed]

Enough. Leavitt should resign in disgrace.

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

In KKKaroline's world if you wear a cross while lying, it's not a lie.

As always with Trump, he opens his fat mouth and someone else in the administration has to come n behind him and clean up the mess.

And, as always with ballwasher, he'll be repeating the excuse in a few days as legit.

Trump was being deadly serious.

His skin, blood, and bones are on the line in November.

We'll be discussing his traitorous election behavior until then, and then after then.

November is out last chance to get from out from under this dictatorial sociopath with relative ease.

We need to take it.

Horse hockey. It is very obvious what he said and even more importantly why. He's trying to control the vote. He's not wanting the whole nation under this, only democrat areas. That in itself tells you just what he is attempting.

Trying to make it out as something else, is typical of this administration's attempts at lying to cover up intent.
