    Breaking

    Tim Ryan appearing just moments ago on - Meet the Press -
    was asked about the recount and what he thinks.
    The Ohio Congressman who this coming Wednesday faces a
    leadership vote challenging Nancy Pelosi.
    He said he's focused on taking the democrats into the next
    year.And that he advises against a recount challenge.
    His counsel would be Not to seek a recount.

    She backed off on her first claim of what would happen to the leftover money to the new quote about it being in a blind trust for the recount. Someone evidently advised her of the law.

    Donald "Shane" Trump is giving the cyber-bullies a taste of their own medicine, what a man..:)

    DON- "So you're Jack Wilson. I've heard about you!"
    WILSON- "What have you heard Don?"
    DON- "I've heard that you're a lowdown lying tweeter!"
    WILSON- "Prove it"
    DON'S GUN- "Bam!Bam!Bam!"

    Today it is 19 days past the election. What the hell is Stein thinking? Can she beat both Trump and Clinton?

    Look, Clinton has to be congratulated over winning 14 out of 50 states. What would Democrats say if Trump demands a recount in some states that Clinton came close to losing?

    Never underestimate the cunning strategy of evil.

    The goal here is not a recount. The last recount in WI lasted over a month and the current recount has to be in by December 13. Stein is demanding a hand recount which will take even longer especially since the population has doubled since last recount. The goal here is to nullify the vote of Wisconsin Michigan and Pennsylvania. If they can't be counted by the deadline they cannot be included in the electoral count. Then it would be up to Congress to decide to include them or not.

    Trump won so you will never know.

    We do know Hillary lost, and is doing exactly what she lambasted Trump for. :roflol:

    Why would Hillary Clinton—who holds "public" and "private" positions—want to engage in something as transparent as #Recount2016?

    Why would Hillary Clinton—who conceded the election to Donald Trump—want #Recount2016? You cannot be on-again, off-again about democracy.

    Election integrity cannot be led by a party w/o integrity, just as a revolution cannot happen in a counterrevolutionary party. #Recount2016
    3:30 PM - 26 Nov 2016

    Yet, this recount drama is just beginning. On Monday, Stein is expected to file a recount petition in Michigan, while in Pennsylvania, the deadline for a recount has passed. Stein will have to challenge the results in court, according to The New York Times.

    Oh, and Stein is interested in other states where deadlines for recounts haven’t passed. This is just a total clown show.

    I will do a recount in any state where the deadline has not passed. Help my staff find state deadlines: http://ceimn.org #Recount2016

    Yep, the Left is cleaving to the principle of hypocrisy with both hands during this election cycle, and I wouldn't have it any other way. For some reason they fail to comprehend that every time they do this stuff they drive voters away from them. All they are doing is keeping their base loyal, and that's not enough to win elections . . . or not the elections that they must win. So this stuff is great!

    I wasn't thinking about that until you brought it up. But it does remind me
    of Nahum Goldmann's famous quote -- he was founder and long time President of The World Jewish Congress --


    "I hardly exaggerate. Jewish life consists of two elements: Extracting money and protesting".

    Obama Administration: No One Hacked The Election; ‘The Will of the American People’ Was Reflected.....


    As Green Party candidate Jill Stein plans to file petition to recount the votes in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, the Obama administration has come out to say unequivocally that the election was no hacked, and that the “will of the American people” was reflected in the results, according to The New York Times. Stein’s recount effort is grounded in allegations, very shoddy ones to be exact, that machines were hacked, which was exacerbated by an article in NY Magazine. Keep in mind, there’s zero evidence that any hacking occurred as well.

    The publication added that no increased cyber activity was detected on Election Day, and that Stein’s recount challenge has to wait until Monday to be filed, so be on the lookout for that development. In Pennsylvania, Stein will have challenge the Pennsylvania result I court, as the deadline for a recount in the Keystone State has passed:

    [In Michigan, Ms. Stein must wait for a Monday meeting of the state’s Board of Canvassers to certify the results of the Nov. 8 balloting before filing for a recount. In Pennsylvania, where paper ballots are used only in some areas, election officials said that the deadline to petition for a recount had passed, but that a candidate could challenge the result in court before a Monday deadline.

    The recount efforts have generated pushback by experts who said it would be enormously difficult to hack voting machines on a large scale. The administration, in its statement, confirmed reports from the Department of Homeland Security and intelligence officials that they did not see “any increased level of malicious cyberactivity aimed at disrupting our electoral process on Election Day.”]


    Again, folks; Trump won the election. There’s no way recounting the votes will determine voter fraud. It’s incredibly difficult to rig an election in the manner liberals are hypothesizing. And it doesn’t negate that fact that Clinton lost because Trump drive up the margins in the rural counties, millions of Obama supporters flipped for Trump, and that Clinton couldn’t get the Obama coalition that dominates the urban areas excited enough for them to turnout in droves like in 2008 and 2012. Why? Because Hillary Clinton isn’t Barack Obama and Democrats learned the hard way that their eight-year honeymoon was only made possible because they had a solid candidate. Clinton is one of the worst candidates to ever be nominated by a major party; she was under FBI investigation when she won the primary contest. Going from a charismatic, vibrant black president to…Clinton? Yeah, SNL had it right for that opening skit with host Dave Chappelle. Of course, no one was excited for Clinton. That’s why they stayed home in Flint, Detroit, and Milwaukee. It seems we’re still months away from the “Clinton sucked and that’s why she lost” stage of the grief process on the Left......snip~

    Why does the left persist to say BO the peep was lying? That the peep doesn't know what he is talking about. Just why are those of the leftness turning against BO the peep?

    America has become so divided into " Me Right You Wrong" that it seems impossible for any to took at something objectively and say "regardless of politics this is a good thing". Bloody hell - we recount every other election and have cought out fraud. But then that is easy for us because of mandatory voting. A system not only has to be fair but must be seen to be fair

    Recounts, no matter who won, are a good thing

    Or is there a fear that the votes WERE hacked?

    This afternoon from Mar-a-Lago, President-elect Donald Trump sent out tweets suggesting that he won the Electoral College and the popular vote
    Alleging widespread voter fraud, Trump said he 'won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally'
    Trump then said it would have been easier for him to win the popular vote - as he would have just campaign in three or four highly-populated states

    I don't know about scam, but the cost of the recount is more than Jill Stein's presidential campaign. In other words, more than green party supporters are likely paying for it.
