"Won't Have To Vote Again": Trump Calls Christians to Vote

Donald Trump sparked controversy, and garnered himself the mention of being a dictator with his latest remarks to his voters. His ‘you don’t have to vote again’, just this time’ made social media brand him as an aspiring dictator.

Trump also took a jibe at Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, calling her the most “far-left vice president in American history”. He then claimed that Democrats did not support voter registration reform “because they want to cheat”.

Speaking to supporters at West Palm Beach, in Florida, on Friday, he said, “I don’t care how, but you have to get out and vote and again, Christians get out and vote just this time. You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what? It will be fixed. It will be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore, my beautiful Christians”.

The former president asked his supporters to back him at the ballot “with a landslide that’s too big to rig”. Trump has repeatedly made claims the 2020 US election was somehow stolen, and has used this point to urge his supporters to vote for him.

Trump is known for his unregular style of delivering speech. It is still no clear exactly what he meant by his Christian supporters not needing to vote. However, comment session of the video of his speech were filled with voices expressing concerns over the plight of democracy in America.

Don Bradshaw, Canadian NTV journalist said, “Trump has, essentially, admitted he will become a dictator, if elected. He has vowed this will be the last time Americans will have to vote in elections. This isn’t media interpretation. He says Americans won’t have to vote in four years”.

One X account named as Republican Against Trump pointed out Trump’s old comment about being a dictator. It read, “Old Trump: I’ll be a dictator for ‘one day,'” read the account’s post. “New Trump: strongly suggests that if he wins there will be no more elections in this country. Our democracy is on the line. Vote!”
