Sen. Chuck Schumer is dragging out the age-old accusation that Republicans don’t want people of color to vote, because of course he is.
Instead of searching for any political platform that will appeal to American voters, Democrats have decided to revert to their favorite pastime: Hurling baseless accusations against their opponents.
Yes, that means Schumer is back, claiming that Republicans want to bring back the era of Jim Crow:

“It’s been clear, when we fight for democracy, when we protect democracy, we’ve got to fight fire with fire,” he said.
“We’re not gonna let ’em revert to Jim Crow, and if you don’t think they want to revert to Jim Crow just look what they did in the SAVE Act, which went back to Jim Crow for the whole nation,” he cried. “By so making it hard, they said ‘You need ID’ and they made it so hard to show ID that probably half the people in America couldn’t vote.”
“But it shows why we need legislation!” his rant continued. “Cuz these guys are undoin’ everything in every way they can. They don’t want poor people to vote, they don’t want people of color to vote, they don’t want Democrats to vote! They don’t believe in democracy. We do.”
His impassioned, if not entirely predictable, speech was transparent to X users:
This is the most clear sign of desperation I’ve ever seen anybody still buying this crap is beyond lost

This is another stupid narrative. Fear mongering and political theater is all they’ve got.

. Doesn’t he get tired of lie, after lie, after lie? Free and fair elections to Chucky is Jim Crow? He knows Dems can’t win elections without cheating, so claiming racism, racism, racism to prevent voter ID to allow the cheating to continue is all he’s got. He is one …

I can’t believe they’re trotting that racist spiel out again. Many of our customers are POC and they all have to show ID to lease equipment from us. They always have it, too.

We just want voting as secure as you demand for firearms and sometimes ammo purchases.
Valid ID, in person, verified background.
