I don’t think that this is directed at us. I think that this media spin is a projected “safe bubble” at the few deranged that they think are still watching or reading.
The first phase is denial, and they are ministering to the TDS victims they have created. They don’t want their remaining ratings completely tanked by mass suicide, after all.
But what happens when approx. uncounted 20,000 ballots are found in the Wayne County Administration Building basement in Detroit?
There will be outraged cries of racism - why are black people’s votes not counted? How racist is our system??!!
Then there will be cries of - count every vote!!
Nahh, the plan is out there. Force recounts in those states with no chance of changing the results BUT forbid the electoral college delegates for those states to abstain, thus denying the magic 270 votes.
Really, though, all this is just a massive scam to give Jill Stein a much bigger war chest at the expense of desperate Democrats.
In my opinion, this talk about recounts has nothing to do with suspected voting irregularities. The Democrats know that Hillary lost, and know there’s no way the results of the election are going to be overturned. The real objective here is to portray the Trump presidency as “illegitimate.” They are dusting off the Al Gore playbook from the 2000 election (”Bush was selected, not elected.”) The talking point will be “Hillary won the popular vote and should rightfully be the president, but the Electoral College stole the election for Donald Trump.”
According to the article, it’s not “official” yet, as the results have not been “officially certified”:
“The state’s Board of Canvassers will officially certify the results on Nov. 28. The electoral college in all the states, including Michigan’s 16 electors, will cast their votes on Dec. 19.”
Looks like we’ll have to wait until November 28th before the total national EV count is “official”, and President Trump actually reaches 306 EVs.
Right, it’s not official. But I think the networks should project a winner here.
Like I said, this is a case of liberal cherry-picking.
10,000 votes is a sizable margin. A recount in fact would likely increase Trump’s vote lead at the margins.
Then again, liberals are stuck on stupid.

One should not bank on the Democrats’ ability to “find” misplaced votes or to reinterpret trump votes into Clinton votes or to disqualify APO votes.
We need to sit back and enjoy the victory and look forward to the scene on January 20, 2017 when Melania and the rest of the Trump clan watch Donald J. Trump being sworn in as the 45th President of the US. I especially look forward to the reactions of the Obamas and the Bidens as the man who is about to undo their legacy is sworn into office.
It’s over. Trump won. Ignore the rest of the noise. Time to focus on the Trump agenda and appointments.
Whatever became of the additional electorate vote for Trump from Maine, which would bring him to 307? Is that still in play?
you just answered the question I’ve been askin,which is, what’s the point of all this ?
But doesn’t that throw it into the house ?
There is no out here for Chillary...only Stein amassing a larger debt.
“Right, it’s not official. But I think the networks should project a winner here.”
They won’t. I already checked. Pretty much everyone in the media/enemedia wait for AP to pronounce these things “official”, and AP will wait until November 28th.
I'm wondering if the Congressional Black Caucus will try to screw with the confirmation process on January 6th. They tried to mess with the process in 2001 before George W. Bush was sworn in. They filed complaints, and made a big stink. I can see them doing the same thing this time.
Did y’all notice that in ALL but one of the recounts, the Republican had the initial lead, but in the recount enough Rat votes were “found” to throw the win to the rat. Only in the GWB/Algore contest were there too few Rat votes stashed and ready.
How about polls are wrong. I refuse to pick up my phone to answer poll questions. And if for some reason I decide to pickup the phone, I give false answers to screw with the pollsters the way they screw with us. Pollsters usually have agendas, they want to know if their “enemy” is polling well so they can figure out their cheater strategy. *It was HRC who called Republicans “the enemy.” I love it when truth rolls off of lying lips. I was praying and am still praying that the lips of the Dems are unbridled and they speak their truths so people know their souls and I was praying that Mr. Trump could bridle his pride, so he would speak the truth on those things that matter and be able to let go of the ridiculous, though sometimes that which was ridiculous turned out okay. He won! Hurrah!
One solution to that is to have 20,000 Trump votes found in the basement of a red county. I mean, I don't condone it but an eye for an eye and all that.
It is much more likely that this noise level over voter fraud will lead to universal Voter ID than a change in the 2016 election results. For every left-winger convinced that people can’t change their mind in a swing state, there is a right-winger convinced that only voter fraud that allowed illegal aliens and dead people to vote made the results this close. Trump should have won this election by a much higher margin.
There was also the 2006 Florida 13th congressional district where the Republican held onto the lead.
