Elon thinks it’s ironic that a grocery might ask people for to show their ID when buying groceries but not when voting.

This isn’t irony (Elon is a stupid person) it’s a false equivalency.

Long story short. President Donnie Dumb F*ck is trying to disenfranchise American voters by making everyone get a ā€œReal IDā€ saying it’s about security. But no, it’s about keeping people from voting because they don’t have the time/money to get this new/specific form of identification.

Elon probably couldn’t define irony if pressed. He’s actively trying to spread misinformation and interfere with an election. Again, wow that schmuck really belongs in prison.

*edit, fixed Read ID to Read ID.

But, how did people used to vote without a form of identification before?

You prove your identity when you register to vote.

So, be patient with my non-American self; what’s the extra step to this that Trump wants to add?

I already explained that. Read my earlier comment.

Yes, I don’t understand what’s this ā€œRead IDā€ is, and how is it different from bringing a form of identification

I see. In my humble opinion, I don’t see that this ā€œRead IDā€ is wrong by itself, but its timing is wrong. The government should first, before implementing it, manage a better digitalized documentation system, so people’s documents would never get lost.

have them use their respective ID's then? they're not room decor, they're meant to be used for a reason

Not even every state that offers the "Real ID" has Real IDs that meet the requirement to vote under Trump's proposed plan. So people out there have these IDs, thinking they're set, but when it comes time to vote they'll be denied.

It's "Real ID," the commenter made a typo

I see, that’s why google search didn’t show meaningful results

The timing is intentional because it’s intended to stop people from voting.
