Trump Cryptically Declares, ‘You Won’t Have to Vote Anymore’ If He Wins Second Term
RSBN
Former President Donald Trump urged members of a crowd in Florida to vote and said that if he wins, they “won’t have to vote anymore.”
Speaking at a Turning Point Action event in West Palm Beach on Friday, Trump, who tried to overturn the 2020 election he lost, delivered a cryptic message.
“And again, Christians, get out and vote!” he said to a cheering audience. “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! I’m a Christian. I love you. Get out. You gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again.”

Trump has responded to accusations about his authoritarian tendencies by saying he will not be a dictator “except for day one” of his second term. In 2022, the former president repeated the false claim that the 2020 election was rigged against him. While doing so, he called for the “termination” of the Constitution.
“A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution,” he wrote on Truth Social. “Our great “Founders” did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!”
The former president is set to face Vice President Kamala Harris in November’s election.
Elsewhere during the event on Friday, Trump said , “I don’t know how a Catholic can vote for the Democrats.” He made a similar comment about Jewish voters as well.

Trump Takes Victory Lap After ‘Coup’ Forces Biden Out: ‘We Officially Defeated the Worst President’
Former President Donald Trump said he “defeated” President Joe Biden on Friday while speaking in Florida as he simultaneously claimed a Democratic Party “coup” forced his former 2024 opponent out of the race.
Trump was addressing a crowd in West Palm Beach for the Turning Point Action Believers Summit when he commented on Biden’s exit from the race , sharing two versions of why the president chose to drop out .
“As you know, five days ago, we officially defeated the worst president in the history of the United States, crooked Joe Biden,” Trump said. “You know, I thought a lot about it. We defeated him. He was badly beaten.”
Trump then claimed that Biden was approached by influential Democrats who presented him with options to either leave the race voluntarily or be forced out of the Oval Office. Trump said:
And, you know, everybody was going to him, said, “You can’t beat him. You’re not going to beat this guy. You can’t beat him. Get out, get out. We want you out.” There was nothing nice about what they were doing, and they were saying, “We want you out of the race. You’re going to lose. We want to put somebody else in. How about that?”
It’s like a prizefighter. He’s losing badly, ready to be knocked out. And they say, “Well, wait, let’s stop the fight. Let’s put somebody else in.” It doesn’t work that way, and it’s not supposed to work that way. And this really was a coup by the Democrats. This was a coup. Nothing else. He got 14 million votes. I hate to stick up for Biden, but, you know, he didn’t want to do what he did.
Trump claimed Biden did not want to leave the race but was given no choice by prominent Democrats, whom he said successfully executed a “coup .”
“Because the fascists went after him. They threatened him with the 25th Amendment,” Trump claimed. “They said, we can do it the nice way or we can do it the hard way, Joe. That’s what happened. I know, I know as many people on that side as I know on our side, so to speak. But that’s what happened. They said, ‘We can do it the hard way. We can do it the easy way. 25th Amendment if you don’t go and he said, ‘Oh, I’ll go. And now they’re trying to make him into a brave hero.”
Biden announced Sunday afternoon he was stepping away from the 2024 election in order to pass the “torch” and quickly endorsed Harris.

Trump Says ‘I Don’t Know How a Catholic Can Vote for the Democrats’
Former President Donald Trump has added a new group of voters to the list of people who he says he can’t believe support Democrats.
Speaking at Turning Point Action event in West Palm Beach, Florida on Friday, Trump slammed presumptive nominee and Vice President Kamala Harris.
“As everyone here understands, the radical left ideology Kamala supports is really militantly hostile toward Americans of faith,” Trump said before baselessly claiming that she suggested that judicial nominees’ “Catholic faith disqualified them from serving on the federal bench.”
Trump, who has repeatedly said he does not know why many Jews vote for Democrats, then said, “I don’t know how a Catholic can vote for the Democrats because they’re after the Catholics almost as much as they’re after me. I would say I top you, I’m proud to admit. But they’re really after the Catholics.”
For good measure, he re-upped his talking point about Jewish voters.
“How can a Jewish person vote or a person that loves Israel vote – think of this – vote for this, this, these parties,” he said. “I mean, how can they vote Democrat? How can they vote for these horrible, these horrible people that wanna destroy– and I asked them, how did they vote for Democrats? Everything is negative.”
Trump then claimed Democrats want to put Jews “in jail.”
“Traditionally, they have,” he added. “And we came to the conclusion it’s mostly habit because they have for 50 years. I mean, they have. That’s what they’ve done. But how does a Jewish person vote for a Democrat? How does a Catholic person vote for a Democrat with what they’re doing to Catholics? I just don’t get it.”
On Wednesday, Trump claimed Harris is “totally against the Jewish people,” which would come as a surprise to her Jewish husband.
