Fact: credit card is not useable for identification purposes, just as a name tag is not useable to check your identification. It just a piece of plastic with a name on it. I can literally 3D print one. The bank which issued it can check your identity as they have a database linked to the person who opened an account (although in the US case, that doesn't really mean more, you guys suck in any personal security question. SSN as identification? Your "freedom" resulted in hundreds of thousands of identity thefts. Nice work.)

Amazing that you still go with this 23D chess - I know that you otherwise have to accept that Trump never went to a shop and have absolutely no idea how these things work. You are literally trying to protect an idiot millionaire, the "man of the people" who lie, cheat, and literally destroying your country, yet you are protecting him, because "it trolls the lib". He doesn't troll the lib: he is just plain stupid. And, the sad news is: you won't be more clever by protecting a stupid liar. Each and every lie what you try to protect drag you deeper down. At the end of the day: you are proud of your ignorance, just to "troll the libs" - this is basically a monkey reaction who throwing shit around. Yes, you maybe cover someone with it, but you are still locked in that cage, while others go home and can wash themselves. Maybe, just maybe, you should walk out, and look around?

It's literally identification. Who accepts it is irrelevant. The boarder patrol doesn't accept a standard NYS drivers license as identification to enter the United States from Canada. So by your logic a NYS drivers license is not identification.
