Democrats Don’t Know How to Get Their Birth Certificates?

Do you have a driver’s license? A passport? A RealID? A bank account? A Social Security card?

If so, you likely needed to prove your identity, which means you needed a birth certificate or an equivalent document. 

Yet the new line that Democrats are using to fight the SAVE Act is that people have no idea how to obtain one. 

Here we go again: Bernie Sanders says he doesn’t have his birth certificate or know how to get one.

“I don’t have my birth certificate. God knows how I get it.”

Just incredible. https://t.co/mmhQuLFGEH pic.twitter.com/H5ja8BXnph

It’s an interesting flex, although quite in line with Gavin Newsom’s claim that he is, just like black people, you know, too stupid to read.

He said that at an event where he was trying to sell his book, by the way. 

It’s an interesting argument, and fully consistent with the claim that women are also too stupid to get a birth certificate, and if they changed their name when they got married, they would be unable to vote if Republicans got their way. 

Apparently, they were able to do so when they changed their name, though, since that requires a birth certificate too. 

Both Newsom and Sanders, by the way, have passports, which require a birth certificate. I know this because they have each gone on international trips. Newsom just came back from his brilliant performance at the Munich Security Conference. 

AOC was there, too, so I would venture that she managed to obtain a birth certificate in order to get her passport. Funny, that. 

AGAIN, Democrats are telling Blacks that having to get an ID to vote is “racist.”

AGAIN, Blacks are being emotionally manipulated to get the votes of the Illegals Democrats REALLY want.

This is an example of a phenomenon I have written about before: Democrats don’t have to make sense when they speak. They can say the most absurd things without ever being challenged because Pravda “journalists” will just nod along, even when they contradict themselves in the same sentence. 

A 2018 Yale study found that when white liberals talk to Black people, they dumb down their vocabulary. It’s the beating heart of wokeness: Minorities are oppressed and in need of your beneficence. Here is Gavin Newsom literally presenting himself as dumb to appeal to Blacks. https://t.co/LakQPhRWGO pic.twitter.com/yQgFabSzx9

Democrats can say the most vile, racist things and get a pass. Remember when Kathy Hochul explained to a group of liberals that kids in the Bronx had never heard of computers? No doubt every single kid in a New York school has been given one by the school, but I suppose Hochul can be quite confident that their teachers have spent all their time talking about the gender spectrum and how evil Western Culture is, so they never learned how to use one. 

OMG HAHAHA Governor Kathy Hochul thinks black people don’t know what a computer is. pic.twitter.com/TSjMLmiOAc

This dude’s reaction to Kathy Hochul (Bucktooth Botox Bandit of Buffalo) saying black people don’t know what computers are is an all time great video https://t.co/861JIJDwUq

Of course, none of these Democrats even consider the idea that maybe it is a bad idea to have a voting population that meets the minimum standard that they can navigate society well enough to get an identification card. If you cannot even manage your life well enough to get the documents necessary to be able to navigate the basics of life, perhaps society would be better off if you chose not to vote. 

Democrats say minorities are unable to get ID’s so voter ID is racist and they also show up in black churches and change their accents.

In New York City, it takes 5 forms of ID to shovel snow for the city, and the left’s explanation for that is that you need to prove you are eligible to work in America in order to get a job, so clearly it is not racist. The requirements for filling out an I-9 are pretty strict, it turns out, although since Democrats love illegal aliens, they apparently don’t care about the legal niceties. 

“I actually think that’s kind of racist, assuming people of color can’t get a driver’s license.” .@VP JD Vance

I can’t think of anything that you want to do that doesn’t require identification.

Hmm. So you are telling me that it should be easier to vote than to get a job and support yourself. Because you can’t get welfare without a birth certificate or its equivalent, either. Apparently, you can vote as you are starving to death. 

If we had real journalists in the world, they would ask about these contradictions, but we don’t. We have Pravda, and Pravda exists to repeat the liberal line. Inconvenient facts just get left out.
