Hillary Clintons campaign lawyer announced plans to participate in vote recounts of Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan if they take place, yet doesnt expect to overturn the election of Donald Trump as president.
[ ] The Democrats campaign didnt plan to initiate recounts on its own because it hasnt found any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology, Elias wrote.
[
] We do so fully aware 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, Elias said. But regardless of the potential to change the outcome in any of the states, we feel it is important, on principle, to ensure our campaign is legally represented in any court proceedings and represented on the ground in order to monitor the recount process itself.

the wages of sin is death
This is why Romanian folklore is rife with procedures for the proper disposal of the demonic and possessed.
It greatly grieves me to have to say this but the American people would never let her steal the presidency this way anyway. She’s only making a worse spectacle of herself, not that she ever cared about THAT, ha!
Trump should make a deal with the witch. You drop the recount idea, and I’ll think about not investigating the Foundation.
Will we never be shed of the accursed Clintons?
Both she and Obama should have come out and strongly denigrated the recount efforts. We have had almost 3 weeks of the the world acting as if Trump is the next POTUS. Suddenly, they come out and pull this stunt. I change my mind: I hope the Trump Admin. goes after Clinton, all three of them, hard.
They know it requires special treatment because it comes from outside of this world (though their methods may be uninformed).
The Wicked Witch and her minions will never accept defeat. They want a Second Civil War.
Trump statement on recount :

Statement From President-Elect Donald J. Trump on the Ridiculous Green Party Recount Request
“The people have spoken and the election is over, and as Hillary Clinton herself said on election night, in addition to her conceding by congratulating me, ‘We must accept this result and then look to the future.’
“It is important to point out that with the help of millions of voters across the country, we won 306 electoral votes on Election Day - the most of any Republican since 1988 and we carried nine of 13 battleground states, 30 of 50 states, and more than 2,600 counties nationwide - the most since President Ronald Reagan in 1984.
“This recount is just a way for Jill Stein, who received less than one percent of the vote overall and wasnt even on the ballot in many states, to fill her coffers with money, most of which she will never even spend on this ridiculous recount. All three states were won by large numbers of voters, especially Pennsylvania, which was won by more than 70,000 votes.
“This is a scam by the Green Party for an election that has already been conceded, and the results of this election should be respected instead of being challenged and abused, which is exactly what Jill Stein is doing.”
guaranteed.
Great post!!!!
Hillary for Prison!
The real purpose of the recount is to delegitimatize the presidency of Donald Trump.
Last time the Democrats were able to disrupt transition, delay the confirmation of a number of appointees and convince Al Qaeda that they could get away with a major attack on US soil that lead to a whole series of wars that we are still dealing with.
Don’t let them get away with it again.
On the other hand, if they do get lucky and “find” the votes they need I hope they understand the consequences. I don’t think our side will take it quietly and I doubt we will be willing to content ourselves with burning down a few buildings.
Amen!!!
Yes. Maybe he vow to reopen the Clinton investigation. Bet those recounts would go away REAL quick.
Hillary has been popping up in all these sweet selfies with strangers who are actually people she knows. In these pictures she does not look like someone who has lost. She looks like someone who is up to something. Obama and the Clintons are cheats. We should watch the recounts very carefully.
2 Words: Special Prosecutor.
Does anyone here know about the recount rules in these states?
I cannot imagine that Trump does not have the best lawyers on the case. I also cannot imagine that the recount officials can “find” boxes of Hillary ballots like Al Franken’s people did in MN.
As to electronic tampering, how can you tell when the tampering occurred? I cannot imagine a legal case for overturning the election.
How about the states where the bitch barely won? If she really wants a fair accounting of the votes, include those states also!
