President Donald Trump on Monday issued serious warnings about a “Third World” future for America if the Senate filibuster is not terminated by Republicans controlling that chamber of Congress.

“Whichever Party Terminates the Filibuster FIRST will be the Party that survives and thrives,” Trump declared on X.

“If the Dumocrats win this race, however, America will rapidly become nothing more than a Third World Nation!”

Trump singled out Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., for action on both the SAVE America Act requiring proof of citizenship and a photo ID to vote, as well as ending the filibuster.

“John Thune should not allow the United States Senate to ‘leave town’ until it passes The Save America Act or, far better still, TERMINATES THE FILIBUSTER, where Republicans can then quickly pass everything they ever dreamed of, including a full and deep throated SAVE AMERICA ACT, the Budget, and the ever looming Debt Ceiling disaster, 1929!” the president exclaimed.

“The Dumocrats will do it on day one, and can’t believe how lucky they got with this Senate leadership. Remember, stupidity always brings LOSING & DEATH!”
