Infighting in the Republican Party is set to take center stage in the Senate, with lawmakers worried their private brawl will receive further publicity. GOP senators remain split on how to proceed with Donald Trump's SAVE Act, which the president has claimed will save the party at the midterm elections. The SAVE Act, if passed, would hinder mail-in votes and require voter ID at the polling booth. Critics see the bill as a last-ditch attempt from the MAGA core to salvage the election, which has been predicted by some analysts as a blue wave in the making. Senate leader John Thune is under criticism from the MAGA wing of the party for sitting on the SAVE Act. Jordain Carney, writing in Politico, suggested the already fractured Republican Party could split even further. He wrote, "Thune spoke just hours after announcing plans to call up the bill next week in a bid to bring an unusually acrimonious stretch for his conference to an end."It will not include a talking filibuster gambit that would skirt the usual 60-vote threshold by instead forcing Democrats to hold the floor if they want to block the bill."The pressure has frustrated GOP senators who believe the increasingly public infighting has transformed an issue that polls well for them — preventing noncitizens from voting in federal elections — into a messy internal brawl."Fed up with a crowd of conservative social media influencers flooding their online accounts with messages about a talking filibuster — many of them egged on by Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) — a few are growing more blunt about those frustrations."Social media posts from former Department of Government Efficiency Elon Musk and other MAGA figureheads have reportedly left Thune "exasperated" but still determined to push on without a filibuster. Carney added, "While Thune has remained publicly even-keeled, he has spoken in increasingly sharp terms about the matter — believing that his job as majority leader is to be honest about the legislative realities at play, even if they frustrate some in the party. No Republican senator, including Lee, has called for Thune’s removal as leader."The weeks of infighting and skepticism from a few GOP senators about the substance of the bill has Republicans questioning if they even have the 50 votes needed to launch debate, according to two people with knowledge of the matter."
