John Thune wants a campaign swing for his friends while SAVE still sits in a drawer. That is not a favor list. That is a majority leader treating election integrity like optional homework. Proof of citizenship, paper ballots, and a photo ID at the precinct do not pass themselves. A 53-seat edge that will not walk the bill is an edge for the photograph.He can keep the procedure talk. Procedure that never produces a roll call is how a clean list dies in committee. Harris already called a purge cheating. The Court already opened a citizenship match. Thune’s contribution is asking for help on the trail before he does the job on the floor. That is not leadership. That is a lobbyist with a gavel.America First is the statute first. Put SAVE on the calendar. Make every name attach to a yes or a no. Then talk about who gets a rally. Favors come after the vote, not instead of it. Fire is the conference’s business if he keeps stalling. The country’s business is a roll that matches a citizen. Walk the bill. Or get out of the way of someone who will.
