Speaking in Georgia, he forecasted a fourth shutdown in September, criticizing Democrats for not approving certain measures and calling for Senate Republicans to eliminate the filibuster. Trump suggested that if Democrats gain control in November, they will also end the filibuster and push for statehood for Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C., which would alter the congressional and electoral landscape. He emphasized his stance by urging supporters to contact senate Minority Leader John Thune to advocate for these changes. Trump also reiterated that Iran would face consequences for killing US troops.
