when i see polls suggesting trump has a 95% chance to lose the presidency, according to drudge report, which is now totally liberal, and i see the huge crowds of trump supporters as opposed to the 20 people showing up for biden rallies, i have to wonder what i should believe.
do i believe my lying eyes or am i totally messed up?.

Couldn't it mean the polls were way off? These are the same people who gave Hillary a 96% likelihood of victory.
Don`t the polls reflect who the majority of voters are leaning towards ? The will of the people ?
Whereas the Electoral College has no bearing whatsoever on the polls.?
So how can you honestly say the polls were way off ?
It`s the Electoral College who overode the will of the people . And gave the Presidency to Donald Trump .
what`s wrong with american politics ?.
96% of american people who got off there arse to vote, chose hillary clinton to be president of the united states of america over donald trump.. and the electoral college overode the will of the majority of the people who bothered to vote , and gave the office of president to donald trump who was the 2nd choice, an also ran , of the will of the people.. it`s a furphy to say that some larger blue/red states can dictate to smaller red/blue states or vice versa to rig the elections ,simply because people can, and do change there preferences in any one state whether it be traditionally red or blue.. both democrats and republicans are both guilty and responsible for the gerrymander that is the electoral college.. there i`ve said it ,.
nobody else seems to be able to say it how it is ,.

Now for the backlash.

in south korea, draft resisters still go to prison.
but now it’s a job.. a court ruled that conscientious objectors must be allowed to serve their country in other ways.
Just as a perusal read it does seem like a step in the right direction ? Though there is a long way to go yet.
i've just been introduced to this site by a pimo friend of mine.
this will be my first post on this website.
i need help, and he told me you guys are a very supportive community.. i'm a female in my mid twenties.
There is some great words of wisdom for you to follow Scarlett _Martin given to you on this forum if you just take the time to absorb it all in without rushing in and doing something foolish like tossing yourself .That doesn`t solve anything and just adds grief to all those you never knew, who loved you.
Believe me, it may sound like a clique , however its true that "time does heal everything" so do that give it time , and use the WT `s tact of using "Theocratic warfare" and use it against them to your advantage .
he's either admitting that they are relying on voter fraud, or he's a decrepit senile old fart who's unfit to be president.. which is it?.
did he also just claim that they committed fraud to get obama elected?
what a joke.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ma8a2g6ttp0.
The population of America is over 328 million ,and Joe Biden / Donald Trump are the 2 best candidates to be put forward for the office of the President of the United States of America ?

He was certainly one of the most influential figures in the " History of Jehovah`s Witnesses " also.
the watchtower's most secret book!.

Terry, Thank you for posting your experience and sharing it with us as it really shows what the WT/JW religion needlesly put so many young men / boys through in those years.
Then changing their policy years later ,and I`ll bet you never got an apology or any compensation at all for what you and the many other young men / boys were put through.
SHAME ON THEM
today, marking the second anniversary of the australian national apology to victims and survivors of institutional child sexual abuse, the prime minister of australia has announce in federal parliament the intention to place sanctions against the jehovah’s witnesses in relation to child sexual abuse.. quote from prime minister:.
the royal commission [into institutional response to child sexual abuse], the [national] apology [to victims and survivors of institutional child sexual abuse] and these yearly reports are about accountability: bringing the truth into the light ... we still have, reprehensibly, four institutions that have been named publicly and that have blatantly refused to join the redress scheme.
they are jehovah's witnesses ... it's not acceptable.
Jehovah`s witnesses have backed themselves into a corner now ,if they back down now and give in to the demands of the Government they will lose face among the R&F.
If they stick to their guns and keep refusing to join the redress scheme they will be penalized by losing there charitable status and their tax exemptions.
And public opinion will be aware of bad publicity that will hurt the organization
