Lars Larson says Republicans in the Senate need to grow a backbone and vote through the SAVE act and Make Elections Great Again

The Northwest Nonsense
I love the way President Trump gets Democrats to oppose things that their own voters support.
Case in point, the “Save Act.”
The save act requires photo ID to vote, you must be a citizen and your ballot must come in by election day.
See? Simple! It has passed the house twice and now awaits senate approval.
A Pew public opinion poll shows 71% of democrats support photo ID for voting … 76 percent of black Americans do and 82 % of Latinos.
Yet the Democrat party leadership on Capitol Hill opposes it, declaring it’s “Jim Crow 2.0.” That’s pure comedy. Democrats invented Jim Crow laws after a Republican president took their slaves away.
Now, the Party of Slavery worries that the SAVE act will take away their army of illegal voters.
Democrat leaders like Chuck Schumer insist black Americans don’t know how to get photo ID. Set aside the ridiculous racism of Schumer’s claim … black Americans know it ain’t true.
Imagine Democrats begging for the votes of black Americans this November after insulting their intelligence on voter ID.
Meanwhile, Republicans in the Senate need to grow a backbone and vote through the SAVE act and Make Elections Great Again!
