Convenient. Or she could assert leadership and caution her supporters that the recount is an exercise in futility.

Slime is a fun replacent for FUD by the way. I was growing weary of it.

I already provided a link to that effect-

Elias said the Clinton camp is "fully aware" that the outcome of the election is unlikely to change, noting that "the number of votes separating Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in the closest of these states — Michigan — well exceeds the largest margin ever overcome in a recount."

Your premise that Clinton wanted recounts is irrevocably false. Therefore your conclusions about her leadership are also false.

If hacking irregularities are found we should recount all these close states.


No doubt. But even the DNC says there is no evidence of hacking irregularities and the motive of the recount is not due to any hacking irregularities. So what motive does the DNC and Green Party have when choosing these 3 close states over a close state where Trump lost? This is the basis for the republican outrage sportage is referring to.

How would Hillary supporters feel if she won and Trump requested recount of only states he lost while ignoring all the states he won?

Also, Hillary won New Hampshire by less than 3,000 votes. Why isn't there a recount there when these other 3 states are 10k+ margin?


If the recount was really to prove the integrity of the voting system in the US rather than serving the interests of one party like the democrats and Green Party claim, why not do a random selection of states?

If Trump's camp wants a recount of New Hampshire, they're welcome to make it happen. But the concern isn't that Democrats rigged the vote, and the larger irregularities are located in the contested states.

For whom would such a question be irrelevant? What new game would you like to play now? There is only one who would ask such questions, did you think he would blurt out his name?
I asked a simple question and you answer it with questions, who is playing games?

You realize Michigan has zero voting machines to rig, right?

Votes are tabulated w/ scantron type machines that are re-programmable & software driven.

I seriously doubt that the recounts will do more than verify the results, actually a good thing for Trump & the Repubs. Dunno why they're going on about it at all.

Perhaps the possibility of fraud during recount?

Everyone is there watching. Like 3 people call out each card then they all look at it then record it. You can't make that fraudulent.

Its like having 2 accountants doing the same thing. How will one of them fuck you?

A recount has already happened, there isn't any possible way, outside of fraud, that they will find 10,000+ votes for Hillary. And there isn't any voting machines to hack in Michigan.


Its not about finding 10k votes. Its about verifying the results.

Recount already occurred. I guess they are talking about a hand recount this time. But still, all of this is academic if Pennsylvania stays red. Wisconsin and Michigan could flip and Trump still has around 280 EC votes. It is as over as over can be.

If its shown that russia hacked the system then you gotta recount florida and ohio and others.

Proof of this Russian hack?

Liberals are now just spreading FUD to undermine the legitimacy of the US elections. Shameful. This is the same crap you tried to pin on Trump.

Recounting is not undermining the legitimacy of the elections. The reality is after the recount trump will have even more legitimacy then he does now. But you are a fearful little person.

Kelly Conway appearing on THIS WEEK with George Stephanopoulos sure was pissed and asking "I JUST DON'T KNOW WHY DEMOCRATS WILL NOT ACCEPT TRUMP AS PRESIDENT ELECT".

Kelly, I want to ask, "I DON'T KNOW WHY REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS WOULD NOT ACCEPT THE FACT BARACK OBAMA WAS ELECTED PRESIDENT? AND FOR EIGHT F-ING YEARS FOR GODS SAKE...?"

Got an answer for THAT lady...?

I swear, Trump for the next 4 years is bad enough but I believe listening to Kelly Conway and Rudy Giuliani for the next 4 years could actually be worse.
