Mike Rounds just went on FAUX and said Americans should show a gold star on their ID to vote [View all]

Do they even listen to themselves? I know they're pretty much stupid and know nothing about history, but they're just putting it out there now? This is insane, and since it will be sanewashed everywhere I wanted to do my part to make sure it receives some attention.

I forced myself to listen to him and he is claiming that if your drivers license has a little gold star it means it is a real id. They're obviously prepping and conditioning the FAUX audience to accept this.
