During a recent speech at the Turning Point Action Believers' Summit, a faith-based event designed to "unite Christians across America," Trump stated: "Christians, get out and vote! 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."

Trump went on to say, "I love you Christians, I'm not Christian," and doubled down on his message, repeating: "We'll have it fixed so good you're not going to have to vote."

Some online felt Trump was suggesting that, if he were to win, no one would need to vote again because open elections would cease to exist.

Another user was shocked at Trump admitting he isn't a Christian, seeing as though he sold $60 Bibles.

Republican governor of New Hampshire (and vocal Trump supporter) Chris Sununu was recently asked on ABC News to clarify Trump's comments about not having to vote in future elections.

"I think he's just trying to make the point that this stuff can be fixed," Sununu said. "You know, obviously, we want everybody to vote in all elections, but I think he was just trying to make a hyperbolic point that it can be fixed as long as he gets back into office and all that, but you know, classic Trump right there." 

The Kamala Harris campaign is clearly taking Trump at his word, writing in a statement: "When Vice President says this election is about freedom, she means it. Our democracy is under assault by criminal Donald Trump..."
