Getting a voter ID if you're poor is crippled because government traditionally operates on government hours and government hours have seen systemic cuts for generations, this isn't about restricting voting access or hurting the poor so much as it is about damaging the view Americans hold towards the government and Democrats have gleefully engaged in it every step of the way.

Like, the real issue here is that poor people have trouble getting identification, that is a much loving bigger problem than voting access, and Democrats are more interested in fixing the voting problem then they are in fixing the ID problem. WHY?


Edit: Just say it out loud, tell me this doesn't sound loving absurd: "Our constituents have trouble getting identification, our main legislative priority this year is making sure they don't need ID to vote"
youre right there is a lot of things democrats could do to resolve this. they could do federal voting holidays, mandate day-of-registration, automatic registration, free national id in various ways, etc.

they dont do it of course b/c they dont want it and their donors absolutely don't want it. democrats are stuck in this weird spot where electorally they want poors voting for their careers, but donor interests and cash always supercedes

this whole thing feels like very very elaborate, WWE levels of political theater at this point designed to maximize outrage on both sides while completely delegitimizing it in advance for the GOP electorate

it'll raise a ton of money for the dems, accomplish nothing politically, and will poll unfavorably enough that nobody who matters will talk about it ever again when it's all said and done

Without the law, there wouldn't be lawyers.


i'm not sure if it's worse if the dems are cynically using 1/6 for influence despite knowing they were safe or if they actually believe they were in danger and are loving up the follow up the same way they gently caress everything else up

Pelosi is probably shitbrained enough to think that there are some number of never trump republicans that she's going to get to vote for dems in 2022 because she's including Cheney lol
