Fucking goddamned tyrant.

Too often media say what Trump wants his EOs to say, not what the EOs actually say.

Whether flag burning (which the EO doesn't say is punishable per se) or English as the national language (as opposed to just being the language of just the federal executive branch of government with only required exceptions being permitted), Trump and the media are on the same page--it's just not the same page the EOs are printed on.

Then there are the ones that are simply unenforceable on their face. Still, often enough the wording draws the required legal lines that aren't crossed over, which often makes them more giant banners engaged in virtue signaling.

But signifying nothing. He needs to pass laws, not issue paper with his name on it.

Same polling place for 30 years. I’ve never had to show anything. I take my voter registration card. They open the book and I sign it. Can you imagine making everyone dig up an ID, even if they are known by the poll workers? Many of these people are neighbors and know each other well. I bet you anything. Trump doesn’t show an ID when he votes.

I’m an election worker in a small, rural town and even though I know everyone who comes to the town hall to vote, I still have to ask for an ID and compare that to the voter registration list.


On occasion, someone forgets to bring an ID and again, even though I know who they are, the law requires they sign an affidavit before they are handed a ballot.

What is the law in your state?

To me it seems like they are accusing every American of cheating and I’m tired of it

It has my name, my party and my polling place, not photo ID.

The EO he signed back in March requiring a photo ID was for those who wanted a mail in ballot. Now he wants to do away with mail in voting all together except for those who are very ill or for military serving overseas.

they can't get him in front of a camera anymore to do it...

Have to be alive first to sign anything?

helping people who need help to get a suitable ID. Having a suitable ID is useful or even necessary for so many things in life, but I get that there are disadvantaged folks who struggle with it for various reasons. Dems ought to bust ass helping these people. Then if the sick shitstain succeeds in actually making it a requirement, our voters are ready.

* I don't know if this EO is toothless or not, IANAL or constitutional scholar. But in any case I DO NOT TRUST THE COURTS. Some of our courts are doing great to hold the line against the shitstain, but not all of them, and we sure as hell can't trust the majority on the SC.

And, unfortunately, the press will report it as if what he says he is signing is what he actually signed.

Before reacting to inaccurate or incomplete press results:

1. Plug your ears and read the executive order. Diarrhea of the mouth means absolutely nothing - just as it did when he theoretically imposed a 1 year sentence for flag burning - and the executive order did not even claim to make flag burning illegal, much less set a 1-year sentence for it.

2. Even if what he signs has some relation to what he says he is signing, it will almost certainly not go as far as he claims. And - how elections are run is within the control of the state, not federal, government.
