The White House’s “Ice Maiden” has gotten involved to salvage Donald Trump’s SAVE America Act.
Chief of staff Susie Wiles made a rare appearance on Capitol Hill Wednesday to implore top Senate Republicans to pass the wildly unpopular voter restriction bill ahead of the midterm elections.
“This was her attempt to say to [Senate Majority Leader John] Thune and [Senate GOP Whip John] Barrasso [that] ‘A lot is stalled in the Senate.
SAVE/reconciliation ... nominations ... what can we do?”
a person familiar with the discussion told Politico via text Thursday.
Wiles was also interested in discussing efforts to end the filibuster, a Trump priority that the upper chamber has repeatedly rebuked.
The stalled succession of acting Attorney General Todd Blanche was not mentioned, multiple sources told Politico.
The discussions were “candid” but not immediately productive, according to the unidentified source.
“Thune basically said: I want to move the president’s agenda whenever it has the votes,” they added.
Wiles’s visit has been interpreted as a deliberate attempt by the White House to smooth over ruffled feathers and keep the president’s political priorities on track—particularly after White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt put Thune on blast last week, sharing with reporters during a White House press conference that Trump’s patience was “ running out ” on the SAVE Act.
“He wants to see as much of the SAVE America Act passed by the August recess,” Leavitt said at the time.
“He knows that’s what the American people want to see passed.”
Thune was quick to hit back , bluntly stating that the caucus simply didn’t have the votes.
That timeline would offer Senate Republicans just five more business days to pass the controversial legislation, which promises to ban mail-in voting and institute new voting policies that would require voters to prove their identities via either a birth certificate or passport in order to access the ballot box.
“You can’t show how high the importance of this issue is to the president other than bringing in Susie,” a former Trump adviser told Politico.
“If there is an ability to land it, the president is certainly putting pressure on Susie to land it.
It’s still an uphill battle.”
