President Donald Trump took a major step against election fraud Tuesday night during a Florida rally, signaling his support for voter identification laws.

“The time has come for voter ID, like everything else,” Trump said during a rally in Tampa for GOP congressman Ron DeSantis, who is seeking to become Florida’s next governor, according to PJ Media.
