What an amazing revelation! Hallelujah! Thanks to your revelation we now know that Trump didn't need LDS votes in states like Michigan or Florida.

How many LDS do you think studied out in their mind, prayed to ask if they should vote for Trump and think that I gave them the warm feeling of reassurance?

I’m going to go ahead and hazard a guess at - all of the ones that wanted to justify their voting for Trump.

You’re just a Yes Man.

We simply invent new reasons, new justifications, new explanations. Sometimes we ignore the evidence altogether.” (Mathew Syed 'Black Box Thinking')
