Trump Tells Christians 'You Won't Have to Vote Anymore' If He Wins — 'We'll Have It Fixed So Good'
Donald Trump tells an audience at Turning Point Action's Believers' Summit in West Palm Beach, Florida: 'Christians, get out and vote just this time. You won't have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what? It'll be fixed, it'll be fine, you won't have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians. In four years, you don't have to vote again, we'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote.' He repeats the claim days later in a Fox News interview. Democrats denounce the remarks as authoritarian, with Kamala Harris calling them a 'promise to end democracy.' Trump's campaign spokesperson claims he was speaking metaphorically about policy success. The Atlantic writes: 'Trump says Americans won't have to vote anymore if he wins — all that voters need to do is believe him.' The remark foreshadows the systematic dismantling of democratic electoral infrastructure that follows Trump's return to office, including executive orders to federalize elections, ICE monitoring of polling places, and mid-decade gerrymandering.
