I don't love the idea of the Trump administration being in charge of creating a national ID system, but this maybe the best time to make one.

If Democrats proposed a national ID database the crazy 'FEMA is coming to round us up' republicans would freak out about it. As proven with Trump sending the national guard into D.C., as long as Trump does it they don't care.
