You think everything in politics is fake, so whatever.

I'm more curious how old you think I am.

Your remark I quoted indicates you are about 18-21?

Try doubling that. I was born in '77. May I ask why you wanted to know?

That Esaias guy... man, what a crazy tin foil hatter! He thinks elections in the US can be rigged! He's probably a democrat or something....

Oh tee hee. Now kindly go back and read the original post of this thread. I was wrong on Ohio, I admit, but I was right overall. The difference between this and other elections is that Trump was blowing out the algorithm and other steps had to be taken.

My point was that the elections weren't just rigged yesterday, brother. It's been going on a LONG LONG time.

I served as precinct committee chairman for my precinct for 8 years as a Republican.

There's a reason I don't bother voting in these big national elections, nor do I bother voting in local elections. I discovered where the lever of power actually lies, and it isn't in the election booth. That is just a cost of doing business to keep the masses placated.

But as we are seeing, "they" are testing to see if they can dispense with even that.

No election result can be trusted, even if it results in "your guy" being selected as victor.

And my whole point in harping on this is to try to get people to realise that God is the only answer, which means returning to an uncompromising adherence to God's WORD with faith that God will honour His Word just like He said He would. It means the political hucksters need to learn that more and more people don't give two hoots about them or their lies or their fake "systems" because more and more people are returning to God and HIS system.

I agree, although I don’t know that America is going to save itself this time. I voted for Trump. I also wonder whether or not he’s more of a punishment than a stop-gap, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett notwithstanding.

I actually thought Ginsberg’s passing in the last night of 5780 was a sign of God giving us a chance. And in a way it is, but I don’t take much comfort in the only bulwarks against an over-run being Joe Manchin and SCOTUS.

The future lies in Christian communities expanding via demographics until society becomes a Christian theonomic Bible-based society, as it was intended in the beginning.
