Insane MSNBC Host Thinks It's Insane to Require Proof of Citizenship to Vote

MSNBC’s Symone Sanders was just flabbergasted (or pretending to be) by Republicans who want to require proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections.   


This came after Speaker Mike Johnson, while standing next to Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago last Friday, announced legislation to require proof of citizenship to vote. Polling suggests that nearly 8 in 10 Americans supports such a policy, hardly making it a fringe policy.

But MSNBC certainly thought it was.

“This is. Um. I feel like this is insane. Because it is already not legal to vote if you are not a citizen of the United States. Congress already passed legislation on that way back, before, you know I could even, you know, go to school, ok? Back, in the 90s I think they did this? Right? I think so, I don’t know,” Sanders elegantly stated. 

“So now according to after, you know, Donald Trump and his insurrection buddy Speaker Johnson had their meeting, now apparently House Republicans are going to pursue legislation requiring proof of citizenship to vote,” Sanders added, slammed a common sense policy nobody outside MSNBC’s audience has a problem with. 

Watch below:

 

Her argument is nonsense, of course. Yes, it is already illegal for non-citizens to vote in federal elections, but requiring proof of citizenship to vote would make it *impossible* for them to violate that law in the first place. 

It’s also common for liberals to argue that proven cases of federal voter fraud are rare, and the word “proven” is doing most of the heavily lifting in that sentence. Liberals do everything they can to prevent anyone from looking into voter fraud simply so they can claim it’s rare. There are likely tens of thousands of cases of jaywalking in New York City every day, yet the NYPD averages fewer than 1 jaywalking ticket per day. Does that mean there’s only about one case of jaywalking there per day? Anyone that’s spent five minutes there could conclusively tell you otherwise.
 

If illegal voting really were as rare as the left would like you to believe, that raises the obvious question of why they’re opposed to legislation aimed at reducing it. If such legislation is redundant and changes nothing, why do they care at all? 

So lax are America’s voting regulations that when ABC News published an article on countries where it’s easier to vote than in the U.S. they came up with a whopping three examples. When it comes to voter ID specifically, another policy derided as radical by the left, out of all of European countries only the U.K. doesn’t have a voter ID requirement. Internationally, they’re joined only by Australia and New Zealand.
