Trump’s ID doubletalk: Good enough to vote, not good enough for ICE

Wallpapers | January 25, 2026 | No comments

In a speech to House Republicans, President Trump urged them to pass the SAVE Act. This legislation would require proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections. Many congressional conservatives, including Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Rep. Andy Harris (R-Md.), as well as billionaire Elon Musk, have echoed Trump’s call for nationwide voter ID.On the one hand, these calls are unsurprising. Trump has repeatedly insisted that he won the 2020 election. He claims that Democrats purposefully allow undocumented immigrants to enter the country and illegally allow them to vote.  On the other hand, there are many cases of people being detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers despite having an ID. In those cases, proper documentation was not deemed sufficient proof of citizenship. via /r/electionfraud https://ift.tt/SIA158a
