Are Democrats raging again ? Oh Heavens.

[kosciusko51]

He knows he will be primaried by the dems without voter ID.

[guitar Josh]

If having to show ID to get a gun isn’t an infringement on the 2nd Amendment, then it’s not an infringement to show ID to vote.

[MeneMeneTekelUpharsin]

EXACTLY!!!

[shelterguy]

“”” Sen. John Fetterman just DEMANDED VOTER ID — infuriating Democrats “”””

And... he will vote with the democrats when it comes up for a vote.

[MotorCityBuck]

We should trade him for Q-Tip. Rand Paul.

[Sarah Barracuda]

He’s right..you show ID for everything else, heck I couldnt even trade in my old PS5 last year at gamestop without showing ID, if you need an ID for THAT you need an ID to vote, PERIOD..only issue is that in many commie states, illegals already have state issued ID’s so they could vote..and NO more mail in voting, you vote in PERSON on election day just like every single election BEFORE 2020, both dems and republicans got elected with in person voting and it was fine, enough with this mail in voting BS

[frank ballenger]

Give him security protection. Or story of mysterious trip and fall or worse will be forthcoming.

[SmokingJoe]

Pass it! Can't believe this is even an issue.

WHEN A VALID ID IS REQUIRED:	WHEN A VALID ID IS NOT REQUIRED:
BOARDING A PLANE GETTING A PRESCRIPTION APPLYING FOR A JOB CASHING A CHECK APPLYING FOR FOOD STAMPS DRIVING GETTING MARRIED ADOPTING A PET BUYING ALCOHOL

[shelterguy]

I have to show ID if I bring some aluminum cans to the scrapyard so I can get my four bucks.

[ClearCase_guy]

Fetterman wants it more than Thune, I think.

[No name given]

That’s true.

[No name given]

Yeah.

[SmokingJoe]

“And... he will vote with the democrats when it comes up for a vote.”

Nope.
Why should he?

[frank ballenger]

Impossibly boring Glenn Beck listing recently of the amazing places in life that demand photo ID. Beyond rental trucks and trailers, admission to hospital or urgent care, buying a car, getting a prescription, going to a doctor’s appointment, applying for a loan and making a cash withdrawal or getting a cashier’s check made at your own bank.

List must have had 100 or more places. Beck said “So, no black person was smart enough to get a rental car or set up a hospital visit as shown by he or she can’t find a way to get an ID to show now at the polling place?”

Next thing you know, they’ll be hurling dildos.

[shelterguy]

“””Nope.
Why should he?”””

Because he always does.

[ryderann]

I hereby take back everything I said about him early on.
