Trump vows not to sign any new laws until GOP bypasses Dems to pass voter suppression bill

By David McAfee
Published March 8, 2026 9:17 AM ET

Donald Trump on Sunday unleashed an early-morning tirade in which he promised not to sign any new bills into law until Republicans bypass Democrats in order to pass a bill that would suppress votes.

Trump over the weekend took to his own social media site, Truth Social, to congratulate a right-wing operative for his Fox News appearance.

"Great Job by hard working Scott Pressler on Fox & Friends talking about using the Filibuster, or Talking Filibuster, in order to pass THE SAVE AMERICA ACT, an 88% issue with ALL VOTERS," the president wrote. "It must be done immediately."

Republicans in Congress are AWOL and do nothing without his blessing anyway.

...this becomes the perfect opportunity to hang this around his neck & distance themselves from the crazy.
Oh, and where did that 88% come from?
He's not polling much above 40 on any issue

He is extraordinarily clueless about pretty much everything, but most of all about the Constitution.

Article I, Section 7: "...If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its Return, in which Case it shall not be a Law."
