Gullible Klamdami is slowly changing his tune

A few years ago he said illegals don’t vote

Maybe he took a walk outside and looked around

Serious question. What’s your level of English literacy?

I shouldn’t have to explain this to a grown man and I’d like to reply sarcastically but I’m guessing you’d take that literally as well.

By “don’t vote” I was obviously implying the number is inconsequential. As in 100% of CH’s posts are inconsequential to the discussion.

From the self-proclaimed genius that lets his pre conceived ignorance do his reading for him … you either can’t read or what I just said about you is completely true


Your tune is changing on this subject Klamdami

Why does truth upset you?

Republicans are worried about Trump’s deportation campaign, and our new poll shows why

President Donald Trump’s aggressive deportation campaign is starting to make some Republicans uneasy.

As midterms approach, GOP lawmakers, candidates, strategists and people close to the White House are warning that the administration’s mass deportations policy — and the wall-to-wall coverage of enforcement operations, arrests of U.S. citizens and clashes between protesters and federal officials — could cost them their razor-thin House majority.

The administration’s forceful approach across the U.S. risks repelling the swing voters who fueled Trump’s return to the White House but are increasingly wary of how the president is implementing a central campaign promise. Further complicating the issue is that Republicans are split on the best way to address the eroding support, with some in the party viewing it as a messaging problem, while others argue that the administration’s policy itself is driving voters’ concerns.

“If we don’t change our approach, it will have a negative effect on the midterms, for sure,” said Rep. Dan Newhouse (R-Wash.), who recently decided not to seek reelection.

I have no problem with voter ID but elections are primarily the responsibility of states and changes should be through the states. I also think it's a rush to try to force it for 2026.

Why are you such a proponent of the big federal government?

Which poll do the SAVE act numbers come from? They seem high for indies and Dems. The married women part, no mail in voting, and documentation challenges for POC.

We need voting to be easier. Fraud is practically non-existent. This is just more voter suppression.

Wrong- does not prohibit states from offering mail voting options or require excuses for absentee ballots.

More white lib racism that black people are too stupid to get IDs.

Lol at the notion fraud is practically nonexistent.

So almost all of the rest of the 1st world practices voter supression?

No mail in voting was incorrect.

Will it infringe on state authority and limit mail in voting?

Republicans want fewer people voting. They have for decades. They want even fewer POC’s voting.

Compared to white US citizens, citizens of color are three times more likely to lack documents such as birth certificates, passports, naturalization certificates, or certificates of citizenship or face difficulties accessing them. For example, while approximately half of all American adults possess a passport, two-thirds of Black Americans do not.

And you must have forgot to answer where the polling came from.

Many communities of eligible voters would be unnecessarily burdened by the requirements of the SAVE Act. Among them are:

• Military voters, who would be required to present documentation every time they re-register to vote when their family moves.
• Families who have been impacted by natural disasters and lost important documentation, who would be required to jump through hoops to replace these documents while also going through the traumatic process of rebuilding their lives.
• Married women and other Americans who have changed their names, who would also be required to secure updated documentation to register to vote.
• People of color.

I stopped reading at “citizens of color“. Another leftist construct like “undocumented.“

And you must have forgot to answer where the polling came from

I included the links for the polls: Harvard Harris, Gallup, Pew Research.

And just because someone doesn't have it doesn‘t mean they can‘t easily get it.
-Easy for a citizen to get a govt issued photo ID.

-I web searched “getting copy of your birth certificate Pennsylvania“ and immediately popped up a link to the PA Dept of Health with the simple steps to obtain a certified copy of your birth certificate. I‘m sure it’s the same/similar in every other state. (Maybe it’s f‘ed up in some deep blue ones lol)

It’s no harder for poor black folks to get these things than poor white folks (majority of whom voted for Trump). But keep being like the rest of the left for the last 60 years, pedaling the soft bigotry of low expectations for minorities, esp blacks..

Quit trying to project your racism on to me. Regardless of how easy it is for you, it at the very least requires a little work which means some will not do it. Citizens of color or whitey’s like you and me. (See how I just swatted your cancel culture out of the gym! Haha!). Hence the number of voters decreases which is what you want.

Show me the poll with the first set of approval numbers or it’s a shit poll.

Getting all of the documents can be time consuming and it costs money which the courts might consider the equivalent of an illegal poll tax (24th Amendment).

Is the SAVE Act an attempt to fix MAQA's Voter Fraud HOAX? There is less voter fraud then there was collusion between trump and russia.

[Skjellyfetti]

Will be even more time consuming if state and federal agencies are inundated with millions of requests for documents.

Of course, all this is ironical because folks who would lean on the 24th amendment today to block the GOP to make registration changes, and say that they also don't want the federalization of elections, would miss that historical fact that racist whites who opposed the 24th amendment in the first place did so because they didn't want to federalize elections (and therefore stop them from disenfranchising Blacks). Strange bedfellows indeed.

I looked up BDK's mention of the ease of getting a birth certificate for PA and it is relatively simple and the mechanism by itself wouldn't be considered a barrier to voting. However, there is the fee of $20 for a birth certificate in PA, which I imagine is similar in most states. And yes, I do think that would be considered a poll tax if we suddenly made obtaining one as a form of ID a condition of voting. And I do think a SCOTUS lined up the way we have it today would see it as a violation of the 24th ammendent (besides the automatic 2 on the left, Kagan, Gorsuch, and Roberts, and very likely Barrett, would see it that way as well). There are waivers to paying a monetary amount for a birth certificate, in PA a military member or their spouse are exempt, so I'm sure a similar exemption could be put in place for a one-time, get your birth certificate to vote movement. Doesn't seem difficult, but it's not there in the bill.

Of course, that's what happens when Congress is the way it is - neither party interested in ever talking to the other party about drafting legislation together, with compromises, to get things done. Voter ID, on the surface, is not controversial at all - most Americans, by a wide margin, are for it, and almost all of the developed countries in the world use a form of voter ID. Finding a way to make it happen should be pretty easy, but here we are, with one party stumbling forward with a bill that's incomplete and shoddy and the opposing party just saying no because, well, that's all they do for anything while out of power. Stupid times.

And speaking of modicum of effort- Reading is fundamental.
