Have you seen the original movie, Miracle on 34th Street? The film has a courtroom scene showing a man with a white beard testifying on the witness stand. The prosecutor addresses the man by saying, “you haven’t proven that you are Santa Claus.” The man responds by saying, “you haven’t proven that I am not.” The drama would have been much simpler if the man had an identification card. But the film was a wonderful Christmas movie for people to enjoy.
Throughout my entire driving career, I have been stopped only once for a traffic violation. The state trooper asked to see my driver’s license. After several moments and questions, I was allowed to continue on my journey with only a warning.
When I travel and check into a hotel, I have to show the clerk my photo identification and provide my car tag number and description of the automobile. When I board an airplane, I am required to show my photo identification to the boarding attendant. If I should desire to purchase an alcoholic beverage, I would be required to show my photo identification to the sales clerk. If I decide to rent a car, I am required to show my photo identification to the business employee.
Folks, I am an American citizen and I am required by law and company policy to show my personal photo identification when participating in certain activities. For heaven’s sake, what is all the uproar about coming from democrats regarding voter identification? Common sense people know what their objection to voter ID is. Voter identification will prevent CHEATING! The democrats absurd claim that President Trump is trying to rig future elections is idiotic. President Trump is not a “threat to democracy.” The democrats are the real threat. Chuck Shummer doesn’t have enough common sense to properly wear eye glasses. House representative AOC thinks a TV with built in antenna comes from a country named antenna. Jasmine Crockett is smart. She is just wrong. Bernie Sanders is a career politician who has become wealthy during his tenure. Spread your wealth around sir. Buy an illegal immigrant a house next to yours.
The democratic party of JFK no longer exist. It died years ago. Democrats in Congress are opposing the SAVE act. Why? They hope to gain control of both houses of Congress at the mid-terms and pass legislation allowing non-citizens to vote in elections. They also want non-citizens counted in the census in order to increase the democratic power in local, state and federal representation. If you don’t think so, just ask Jasmine Crockett and she will lie to you and call you a racist.
Former President Joe Biden gets the blame for a great many bad conditions currently in the United States and rightfully so. But, the circumstances causing these conditions began during former president Barrack Hussain Obama. He started and allowed the mass illegal border crossings. The news media simply ignored it and therefore the public was not made aware. The illegal crossings flooded the US under Biden. This was deliberate and calculated. Now, just give them the vote! But wait! President Trump and the republicans in both houses of congress recognize this treasonous attempt to overthrow democracy.
So, folks, instead of a “threat to democracy,” there exist an attempt, by democrats, to overthrow democracy!
