You’re trolling, right? I can’t imagine why I’d have to explain this otherwise.
Laws aren’t magical spells that change reality. If Republicans introduce a law saying “you must have a passport to vote”, people can still vote without a passport as long as nobody prevents them from doing so. Republicans can send ICE to polling stations in blue states to prevent people from voting without a passport.
Ah yes, sorry, I forgot we’re deliberately ignoring all nuance. So I agree: no matter from which perspective we look at it, there’s literally zero reason for the politicians to show a stronger reaction towards completely losing their own power to the fascist regime.
They won’t do it because it would disenfranchise their own voters and enfranchise the opposition. Are you not American and confused the parties?
Edit: who is downvoting this? Are there people who think the republicans are going to rig the game against themselves?
Oh yeah, because it’s simply impossible for them to send ICE into blue states to “secure the elections”
Sending ICE to polling locations has nothing at all to do with requiring passports to vote.

They don’t need a law saying that to send ICE to blue states to stop people from voting.
Of course they do if they don’t want an open confrontation with the state’s own forces.
They already send ICE to do illegal things in states without open confrontation with the state’s own forces.

The subject is “will Trump require passports to vote”, and the answer is “no, because his own constituents are the least likely to have passports.”
Everything else is just Qanon-style “yes and-” fantasizing.
