Former Pres. Donald Trump last Friday in a speech to Christian supporters said that if they voted to re-elect him this year, after "four more years" they "won't have to do it anymore," sparking debate over what the 2024 Republican presidential candidate meant.

Trump also said, "We’ll have it fixed so good you’re not going to have to vote." His campaign later said his comments were "about uniting this country and bringing prosperity to every American."

Trump's comments inspired criticism from Democrats who translated his words as him expressing his desire to be a dictator.

Other speakers at the Trump event – the theme of which was "unity and biblical truth" — included former Trump adviser Peter Navarro, former Trump Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Dr. Ben Carson, and conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

This comes as the campaign of Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump's likely opponent, is focusing on criticizing Republican Vice President candidate JD Vance. A recent Fox News poll found Harris and Trump effectively tied in the swing states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
