Blanche: "There's a lot of things we can be doing, like voter ID. Every time you walk into a restaurant you have to show ID. How about you have to show your idea to vote? That's not anything that's crazy."

[Ocelot II]

1. What sorts of weird restaurants is he going to?

I've never had to show my ID at a restaurant, not even to buy a drink. Maybe he goes to some seedy speakeasy where you have to know someone to get in?

[PCIntern]

3. Private clubs.

[Ocelot II]

4. Like the one in "Eyes Wide Shut," maybe, where there are orgies?

Do you have to show ID to get into an orgy?

[Polybius]

9. I would hope you have to show ID for that!

[PCIntern]

10. I've been to orgies:

That was WAY beyond an orgy.

[ColoringFool]

35. Actually, It Wasn't An Orgy By A Sexual Definition. It Was A Satanic Ritual.

Masked topless women do not define "orgy."

[Ocelot II]

38. It's a start, though.

[Ocelot II]

37. You've been to orgies, plural? More than one?

I've been to a few rather excessive parties in my youth, but no actual orgies, not even one! Your life must be much more exciting than mine.

[PCIntern]

45. I take the Fifth.

[usonian]

49. Fidelio

[ms liberty]

2. I don't know what restaurants he frequents, but I've never had to show ID just to eat at one

And now that I'm a grown ass adult, I don't get carded when I drink, either.
What a frickin' moran.

[B.See]

47. Nor has he. He's

full of s----. Like all of Trump's maga goons.

[LoisB]

5. They really do think we're stupid, don't they?

[Progressive dog]

6. Amazingly stupid

He doesn't even know that restaurants do not check ID or maybe he thinks that no one else will remember that they don't.

[wnylib]

24. He lives in a different world than the general population

He goes to private, exclusive clubs where ID is needed to get inside. Has no clue how most of us live.

[VTderry]

44. But, deliciously, he is being basically blackballed from

the private club in DC that he was very keen to join!

[durablend]

7. Funny

I didn't have to show ID at a restaurant, the gas station *or* Walmart yesterday. Guess that makes me a criminal.

[Polybius]

8. Does he mean when ordering a drink?

[LeftInTX]

11. Has he ever been to McDonald's?

[Ocelot II]

12. You want fries with that? Can I see some ID?

[Walleye]

13. Do they understand that the bartender is asking for your ID to check your age?

I’m sure they do, they’re just fucking dishonest

[peggysue2]

14. What restaurants does he go to???

What a stupid, flatfooted reply.

The ID requirement to prove citizenship is merely another way to limit voting. Republicans know they cannot win in a fair electoral situation because their ideas are repugnant, toxic to the voting majority and that despite all the happy talk Trump's 2nd Administration is disastrous.

The propaganda is losing its magic.

[Boo1]

15. Maybe Blanche

is also a functional alcoholic like Patel and Hegseth.

[wnylib]

26. Are they functional?

[Raven123]

16. I think he is still upset over being rejected by a club

https://abovethelaw.com/2026/04/washingtons-most-exclusive-club-to-todd-blanche-youre-not-our-kind-dear/


It’s on his mind. Freudian slip or something like it.

[Henry203]

22. My friend ran Quinn's litigation group

I also tried calling Burck, I know SullCrom very well. I am glad the club is rejecting him.

[Diamond_Dog]

17. Seems that the ability to produce mindless blather on the spot is a requirement to serve in this administration.

[Dr. T]

30. Sean Duffy struggled to come up with a

spontaneous lie on ABC this morning. He choked so hard on his words I thought he was going to need the Heimlich maneuver.

[Jacson6]

18. I've never gone into a Taco Bell and been required to show my identification. n/t

[muriel_volestrangler]

19. This is because every time he goes to a restaurant, he complains about something

and when the staff don't bow down to him, he explodes "don't you know who I am???". So they reply "no ...", and he gets out ID to prove it.

[Traildogbob]

20. I recommend

That people should NOT watch the DocuMovie, “2073”, HBO,. It outlines the hell we are sprinting towards and exactly where each step to get there, began. And who is responsible.
It Stars Bezos, Musk, Zuck, Theil and all the greatest 🍆🥔 and their elk.
It is way too horrifying to see the Greatness we are intent on getting too. All laid out in P2025 and fulfilled as the movie clearly depicts.
Again the Movie documentary “2073”.
More terrifying than Exorcist in HD, in 3D on acid to a 10 year old paranoid child, sitting next to Satan joined by Maxwell and Epstein, all three naked.

[Ilsa]

27. Oh man. I know what I'm watching tonight.

I'll probably need blood pressure medication and a sleep aid, though.

[Traildogbob]

42. Seriously

It is terrorizing and sickening. But needs to be on every TV ASAP.
Why they need so much Data and incarceration camps, and why Musk sent his boy nerds in to steal all out information is right there in this DOC.
Some of the hell it predicts is already in play in other far right 🍆🥔 country’s right now. And the billionaire boys are all over it with puppet Trump to install it all here. If they succeed to a nearby point in their wet dream, there is no coming back. And that is why all the GQP thieves and liars do not care what polls say, how much they are hated, they know they will never give up power or face any responsibility. Why the arrogant smirks and fuck you attitudes in Hearings. They will be untouchable, the elections will not be without a hell of a fight,
This fight needs much more than
Milk toast, “concerns and disturbed letters”.
We are at War. And we are way behind right now.
Watch right past the credits, something there that will top the terror off.

[MineralMan]

21. I have been in hundreds of restaurants.

I have never been asked for my ID in any of them. What's that guy smoking?

[Vinca]

23. Sounds as wise as Trump who said you need ID to shop at the grocery store.

[purr-rat beauty]

25. Just as ignorant as his master

Does anyone in the media push back on these blatantly stupid comments?

[Justice matters.]

39. No. They're scared of being "retaliated" against.

So this could be the end ... result of their cowardice:

When there is no TRUTH, there's no TRUST.

[Traildogbob]

43. This must been watched ASAP!

What this predicts in 2073, is well under way. Thanks for this trailer, I posted about that this needs to be seen, above in this series of posts. And we need to get in the fight. Now. This will wake us the hell up, or this is where we are headed. Fast.

[AverageOldGuy]

28. They check his ID because . . .

. . . they are worried that he will skip out on the bill.

[Picaro]

29. A lie of course

I’ve never had to show id to enter a restaurant. That is NOT a thing.

Why do they all lie so transparently and constantly?

Does Blanche actually believe this? I doubt it.

I’m so sick of these people.

[hunter]

31. His wife saw his credit card statement.

"Restaurants," he explained.

[Figarosmom]

32. Huh? Some restaurants if they are really a bar

A d you have to be 21 to drink , you have to show ID. But regular restaurants, nope.

Most states already have ID to vote laws. He's not talking about IDs and I wish the media would call this shit out.

[nilram]

33. Dinner at the strip club?

[Joinfortmill]

34. He doesn't pay cash. Lol

[ColoringFool]

36. MORE PROOF THAT THEY HATE US BECAUSE WE ARE TOTALLY FOREIGN, ALL OF US.

[twodogsbarking]

40. For shits and giggles let's assume his statement is correct. So he wants to make an injustice better by

creating another injustice? LIke making your kids walk 3 miles to school because you had to. Humans can be weird and weirder and weirdest.

[The Madcap]

41. Exclusive billionaire restaurants.

They can't allow us peasants in there unless we are cleaning the toilets after closing time.

[pecosbob]

46. He must be thinking of all those strip clubs he was taken to on lobbyists' dime.

[sakabatou]

48. I've only ever heard of being asked for ID if a customer ordered alcohol, nothing else
