      Fun fact - Courts have pretty consistently ruled that, as it stands now, requiring an ID to vote is an illegal poll tax since you have to pay money to get an ID. They’ve also consistently ruled that if IDs were given out to citizens for free then requiring one to vote wouldn’t be a poll tax. Republicans have opposed every effort to make ID free despite also pushing hard for requiring an ID to vote.

        IDs are paid? wtf, they are free for your first one in brazil and all mandatory reissues are also free, you also get a free one time reissue in case you lose yours, after that you have to pay for reissueing it

      They won’t. Try and convince them that the current act of “deporting” people is not constitutional or the actual definition of deporting. They don’t care. Identity politics cannot let them change their mind y because they would have to change their identity.
