"Oh, brothers and sisters of this blessed Congress, gather 'round the altar of democracy! Can I get an amen for the SAVE Act? Hallelujah! Behold, the sacred shield against the hordes of shadowy non-citizens slithering across our borders to steal your vote—yes, YOUR vote, praise the flag! I stand before you today, humbled, weeping, pleading on bended knee like Moses before Pharaoh: Pass this bill, O ye lawmakers of righteousness!

For if we do not rise up and demand proof of citizenship—real documents, not just some liberal tears and promises—then the very soul of our republic will be devoured by illegals voting 47 times each while good, God-fearing Americans sit home wondering where their country went! This is not politics, my friends; this is spiritual warfare! The devil himself is mailing ballots from Acapulco!

So I beseech thee, in the mighty name of election integrity, lay hands upon that legislation and send it forth to my desk that I might sign it with the fire of a thousand rallies! Let the non-citizens tremble! Let the voter rolls be purged! And let America be great—nay, saved—once more! Amen and a-MAGA!"

GLOUCESTER
Name not religion, for thou lov'st the flesh,
And ne'er throughout the year to church thou goes
Except it be to pray against thy foes.
--Shakespeare, 1 Henry VI 1.1.41-43

Just last week, he celebrated death of one of his perceived foes, former FBI director Robert Mueller.

Who knows who and who is not his foes.
As Shakespeare also said:

MARCUS
He takes false shadows for true substances.
--Shakespeare, Titus Andronicus 3.2.81
