Yes, Democrats are that stupid. Can you guess who said it?

He stopped just short of claiming we are bringing back slavery.
quote:

Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) on Monday slammed a Republican voting requirement bill championed by President Trump as a top priority piece of legislation as “nothing but a throwback” to Jim Crow laws.

The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE America) Act “is nothing but a throwback to those laws that were passed after Reconstruction that made it impossible for African Americans to get elected,” Clyburn told CNN’s Jake Tapper.

If passed, the SAVE America Act will require Americans to provide proof of citizenship to register to vote and a valid ID in order to cast a ballot.

“And if the SAVE Act becomes law,” Clyburn continued, “it will reduce –– dramatically –– the number of African Americans currently serving in the Congress

If that were true, wouldn't an ID requirement also reduce the number of African Americans on welfare?

It hasn't.

Congress should have better standards.

Honestly voting should also have better standards.

We need literacy tests, civics tests, and they must be contributing

Sounds an awful lot like an admission of fraud.

Ah, so they really have realized how worn out the hackneyed "It's Racist" trope is (maybe), so they pivoted slightly to the new and improved "It'll be Racist by Keeping Blacks Out of Congress" trope.

If anyone can spot a throwback to Jim Crow, it would be those who favored Jim Crow.

Clyburn is black, and believes black people aren’t smart enough to get an ID.

Unless mistaken, I believe part of the issue is states must post their voter roll to the SAVE Act database of registered voters voting in a federal election.

DEMS are plain hippocrits.....and it is a fact!

It is wild that black folks are just sitting back and letting these people talk about them like they can't manage to walk out of their house everyday without putting on a fricking helmet. They must LOVE having someone's boot on their neck constantly I guess.
