This tells you that Democrats have done a terrible job at explaining how ID laws are voter suppression laws in fancy clothes.
Pew Research Center poll: 83% of U.S. adults say they support "requiring all voters to show government-issued photo identification to vote."
That includes 71% of Democrats.
Among those who favor this idea:
—76% of black Americans
—82% of Hispanics

We are asking the secret police if they would pretty please follow existing laws. That’s pathetic. But that’s as far as Chuck will go.
Our DHS reform demands are exceedingly reasonable.
We're asking ICE to do nothing more than follow the standards that the vast majority of law enforcement agencies already follow.
Republicans, the ball is in your court. The clock is ticking.

When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.
