SEVERAL picks so far. LOTS of speculation and misinformation along the way
This week the country loudly let the PEOTUS know mittens was not on most favored list. Trump let the media know they were NOT on his most favored list. A snark designer who helped keep MO tacky advised other designers to stay away from Melania professionally. We ate too much probably on Thanksgiving and we possibly weren't appreciative enough of the blessings in this life.
Totally off topic - Some of these in original post as well as what some FReepers added are rather funny:

Hilarious. Thanks.
My mom a NYC girl makes a kick ass sweet potato pie.
I hope he has the best lawyers and advise money can pay for, because the fact she called him means absolutely nothing.
There is an attempt at a coup of the President elect - there is absolutely no other way to describe it.
The BEST outcome at this point, is that this phony Green Party, becomes galvanized, and will siphon off more of the Rat vote and keep these scum out of power for a generation - the time in my estimation, it will take to steady the American ship.
Just saying hello.
His WH Counsel pick was a former FEC Commisioner. There was an election attorney on Judge Jeannine last night that said he will be in WI on Monday (BTW - he was on the Bush team for the FL recount). There isn’t a separate video up for him yet, but here’s the video Judge’s show last night and he starts about the 11 min mark. You might want to watch Jeannine’s opening remark as well as the next video with Rep Chris Collins (R-NY) who is on the Trump transition team and his liaison with congress. Then comes the attorney, Jeff Buley.

I’ve been reading through many of the recount threads and found the comments below from FReeper dsm69 interesting:
“If somehow PA’s electoral votes don’t get counted, then the 270 electoral vote number gets lowered to 260 electoral votes needed for the presidency. The 12th Amendment states in part:
“The person having the greatest Number of votes for President, shall be the President, if such number be a majority of the whole number of Electors appointed”
Since PA’s Elector’s weren’t “appointed” the number of voting electors drops from 538 to 518. Majority number would then be 260 Electoral Votes needed for election. This is why the dimrats in Florida 2000 where trying to stretch the recounts out as long as possible so that Florida could not have their electors vote in the electoral college vote. Al Gore would then have won when the 270 minimum electoral vote number would have dropped down to something like 258 had Florida’s electors not been able to cast their ballots.
If by some chance the Dems/Stein manage to get slow hand recounts going in all three states and play the delaying game enough that these states electoral votes (46 combined PA, MI and WI) are NOT able to be cast, then the new total number of “appointed” electors voting would be 492. The new Majority number needed to win the Electoral College would be 247 electoral votes needed for election.
If you take away the three states in question, Trump leads Clinton 260-232 in the Electoral College. Trump will still be the next president and win the majority of appointed electors, so just simply blocking these three states from casting electoral votes will not help Clinton or hurt Trump.
Only way Hillary will become POTUS from all this is if she steals PA (20 Electoral College votes) + either MI or WI and then blocks wither MI or WI from casting it’s electoral votes. Stealing MI + WI and blocking PA from casting electoral votes will not win her the presidency. Without these three states, Clinton trails Trump by 28 in the electoral college. Netting MI + WI and blocking PA would make it Trump 260 - Clinton 258. Trump would still win the presidency by one Electoral College vote.
Unless Stein/Clinton find the most corrupt, partisan judge in all Pennsylvania to hear Steins recount/election challenge request, if the judge simply follows Pennsylvania election law for recounts, they will have to reject her request”

Sweet potato pie sounds good - I love sweet potatoes fixed almost any way - plain, fries, candied, etc. Was in Taco Time yesterday and they now have Sweet Potato Mexi Fries!
I’ll have to look for a recipe. I’m not good with pie crusts, but it might be good on a graham cracker crust.
Sadly true, Canada’s PM actually praised him....

Sunday morning talk shows for today. Not sure who will be on Maria B’s show on Fox News channel (on here from 7-8 a.m.), but she’s normally good and has good guests.
I’m assuming Cruz and Rubio are on to discuss Fidel’s death and Cuba. Kellyanne is on 3 shows and Preibus is on 1. Not sure why Sanders is on 2 - perhaps to discuss the recounts??
Guests to be interviewed today on major television talk shows:
FOX NEWS SUNDAY (Fox Network): Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio; Reince Priebus, Republican National Committee chairman and chief of staff to Trump.
MEET THE PRESS (NBC): Kellyanne Conway, adviser to President-elect Donald Trump; Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla.; Ryan.
FACE THE NATION (CBS): Rubio; Jahana Hayes, the Connecticut teacher chosen as National Teacher of the Year; retired Los Angeles Dodgers broadcaster Vin Scully; John Shinholser and Honesty Liller of the McShin Foundation, which fights substance abuse.
THIS WEEK (ABC): Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt.; Conway; Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.
STATE OF THE UNION (CNN): Sanders; Conway.

Thanks for the great summary SC, there are many ways these criminals can potentially disrupt the process but in the end they will lose and be disgraced......
Good morning Ray.
I have yet to figure out why ANYBODY under consideration for ANYTHING would open their mouth. To me, that just shows me how ill-suited they are for the job.
Good morning, SC.
Thanks for posting this info.
It does seem like Hitlery will have a hard time “stealing” the election.
Just makes for more turmoil which she is Queen of.
I won’t breath a sigh of relief until Jan. 20 and Trump is sworn in and “officially” president.
Morning Ray.
Don’t worry, I’ll take care of the Diet Coke for you.
Our Prime Minister is a buffoon. Obama gave a very ambiguous line of crap, but our “leader” was over the top. This is what you get when you elect a pretty-boy, clueless drama teacher.
I blame the education system and the media in both of our countries for the stupid citizenry.
Let them have their fun. Enjoy all the winning.
