    I don't think so. There was this little thing called russian interference. And more significantly there was that rather helpful late great Comey announcement about the emails. Without those two, the present day circus would be ... well, a different kind of circus.

    My brethren, do not hold your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of personal favoritism. James 2:1

    If anyone thinks himself to be religious, and yet does not  bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this man’s religion is worthless James 1:26

    This you know, my beloved brethren. But everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; James 1:19

                        • I just relaying my experience. Perhaps we live in different parts of the country. I'm not out conducting polls, I'm just telling you what the Black people I am in contact with think. That you see this as some necessary insidious flaw in me is in fact more an indication of who you are - than who I am. You really need to figure out that people that think differently from you are not necessarily wrong, or necessarily evil. In fact, you might one day realize that sometimes people think differently from you because sometimes you are wrong.

                          But I'll settle for they are not all evil demons purposefully distorting every fact as a start.

                            Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
                            But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
                            Than a fool in the eyes of God

                              Evil, no. Filled with self delusion. Yes.
