Donald Trump, a man who has spent years denying the existence of facts, now wants you to prove you exist. Irony just packed its bags and left the building.
Trump’s announcement declared his intent to issue an executive order requiring voter ID for every American. He also threw in a ban on mail-in voting—except for the “very ill” and military personnel stationed far away—while simultaneously doubling down on his long-standing crusade to eliminate electronic voting machines in favor of paper ballots. If this sounds like a dystopian sequel to The Art of the Deal, you’re not alone.
