  While trying to have a conversation with a Trump supporter today I realized the person knew next to nothing about the US Constitution, world events, Trumps flip-flops, Hillary's e-mails, etc.

  I have sense decided it is much easier to do absolutely no research and boldly make broad proclamations rather than read up on a particular topic and make concise points. As such, I will now be telling you why Tim Kaine was the worst governor New Jersey has ever had:

  Under Tim Kaine New Jersey GDP dropped by 97%.

  Humming birds were able to penetrate restricted airspace.

  The bridge to Missouri kept getting closed.

  He made the State look weak by having a State Flower.

  All the hard working I-pad miners lost their jobs.

  And he set up Obamacare death panels that were run by ISIS in Planned Parenthood vegan centers.

  I was just thinking about this today. I was wondering how anyone could support Trump after reading the news the last few days, but then I realized those who support him probably don't actually read or watch the news, and if they do they explain it away as lies from "the liberal media". It's like the JWs, they have bought into a concept and simply don't believe anything that would contradict their beliefs, explaining away uncomfortable truths as apostate lies.

  OK, I'll bite. What would you expect from a Trump supporter?

  I would suggest the idea of having to pass a quiz before you are qualified to vote but it doesn't help potential JWs in any way.

  Speaking of under-informed voters. Tim Kaine was never the governor of New Jersey. He was the governor of Virginia however.

  Thomas Keane was a governor of New Jersey and a republican, not a democrat.

  Just sayin,

  People believe what they want to....

  The first part of the above quote was....

  My mind is made up

  don't confuse me with the facts

  I find that jws do not leave because of a plethora of facts....confirmable. First they have to experience the verbal abuse or similar themselves. Their face has to be slapped not just seeing others be slapped. They have to feel the pain.
