President Donald Trump has made it clear that immigration will be a major campaign issue for him, in both the midterm elections and in his own re-election bid, and that was evident at the president’s rally in Florida on Tuesday.

“Republicans want strong borders and no crime. Democrats want open borders, which equals massive crime,” he said. “And on top of that, the Democrats…they’ve launched outrageous attacks on our incredible law enforcement officers and on ICE and our Border Patrol — can you believe it? People that keep us safe.”

Trump said Democrats, in their pursuit of open borders, also want to let illegal immigrants vote. “It’s crazy,” he said. […]

“We believe that only American citizens should vote in American elections. Which is why the time has come for voter ID, like everything else. Voter ID. You know, if you go out and you want to buy groceries, you need a picture on a card. You need ID. You go out and you want to buy anything, you need ID, and you need your picture. In this country, the only time you don’t need it, in many cases, is when you want to vote for a president, when you want to vote for a senator, when you want to vote for a governor or a congressman. It’s crazy. It’s crazy. But we’re turning it around,” Trump promised.

Ted Cruz gave up his Canadian citizenship, so he can remain in the Senate.
He can’t be President.

Natural born citizens are naturally citizens because they have only one nationality.

This was the big scandal on tv this morning. You don’t need a picture ID to buy groceries. Trump is a liar!!!!!!!!!

Of course if you go to the grocery store and want to buy tobacco, wine, beer you will surely need one.

They don’t have the guts.
It’s too good a wedge issue for them.

If you pay for groceries by check, you do need your ID IIRC. (Very rare thing these days, or else I haven’t seen it of late.)

You could not renounce your British citizenship prior to 1958, so I’m a dual national whether I like it or not, even tho’ I’ve been here since age 11.

Yeah, that was a problem back in 1812 too.

Constitutional amendment that:

1) limits federal election voting to US Citizens
2) Requires states to maintain separate federal voting rolls
3) Requires states to notify each other when a person moves to another state and obtains either voter registration or drivers license
4) requires an entire purge of the federal voting roll 30 days after the Presidential inaugration
5) requires in person registration to vote
6) requires ID to both register and to vote

Ted Cruz is not a dual citizen. He publicly renounced his Canadian citizenship and is therefore, under the laws of Canada, no longer Canadian.

I am 1000 % behind this! Only American citizens should enjoy the rights of American citizens! This is a wrong that should have been righted thirty years ago!

If you pick up aluminum cans on the side of the road and bring them to the recyclers you will need a photo id or no cash for you.

If you want to check out a library book...same thing.

I am currently waiting for my actual driver’s license to arrive. I just got a federally-approved ID driver’s license. Why do we need one to board a plane and not vote??

Check out the list of documents you have to produce to get the federal ID driver’s license! Illegals get a driver’s license with what proof?

To those democrats who claim that illegals who pay taxes should get to vote... If I’m a resident of New Mexico, and go to Idaho to visit family, and pay sales/fuel/hotel taxes in Idaho, do I get to vote in Idaho, too? Morons.

He’s absolutely, positively right and he’s in agreement with the Constitution. Any registration that is not “proven” should be rejected.

Or Costco or Sam's Club... To get initial membership, then have to show the card to get in and check out.

First step to ending voter fraud.

Needs to be required to get absentee ballots also.
