Despondent Lefties Call for Trump-Hillary Recount

Democrats, media indulge in conspiracy theories about GOP electioneering

There is something about President-Elect Donald Trump bringing out the hypocrisy in his opponents.

He’s good at it.

Before the election, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton pressed Trump on accepting the election results. Trump was coy, never suggesting he would accept defeat. This angered many Democrats and liberals, who were sure Trump was headed to a certain and bone-crushing defeat.

Clinton supporters demanded Trump accept this coming defeat, ostensibly to help make Clinton a more legitimate president in the eyes of the public. They also sneered at Trump’s suggestion that there is election fraud.

Defeat didn’t arrive for Trump on Nov. 8. Now the Left is calling for an audit. And they want this audit only in states that could throw the election back to Clinton.

Advocates for immigration reform will camp our near the office of Rep. Ed Royce for five days, where they will stage a fast. They are asking OC's Republican leaders in Congress to publicly support an overhaul to the nation's immigration laws, including the so-called pathway to citizenship that would create a process for some 11 million people living in the U.S. illegally the right to become citizens.

Been here 23 years - how many steps has she taken to become a citizen? I am betting not too many, if any at all!!!

Over and over we have to remind the dumbed down LIV population that a Comprehensive immigration bill that includes a "pathway to citizenship" is nothing more than a RAT voter drive and will never ever result in funding for the border protection that passed in 2006 - (Secure Fence Act of 2006, Pub.L. 109–367) signed into law on October 26, 2006 by Bush 43. Congress has refused to fund that bill during the past eight years and perhaps before Obumbler also. NO TO COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION - secure the border first and THEN WE CAN AGREE TO TALK about what to do with the more correct estimate of 20 - 30 million illegal border crossing entries and visa overstayers, after we see the OPEN BORDER crowd is serious.

Never forget how Reagan got scammed with the "Bi-Partisan" Simpson–Mazzoli law (Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA), Pub.L. 99–603)

Excerpt -

Former Attorney General Ed Meese has recalled many times how Reagan did not like the amnesty provision and, in fact, “called it for what it was.” Nevertheless, on November 6, 1986, Reagan signed the bill, which also included (as he noted in remarks made during the signing) “employer sanctions [and] other measures to increase enforcement of the immigration laws. . .”

“The lesson from the 1986 experience is that such an amnesty did not solve the problem,” Meese wrote in HUMAN EVENTS earlier this year, “There was extensive document fraud and the number of people applying for amnesty far exceeded projections. And there was a failure of political will to enforce new laws against employers. After a brief slowdown, illegal immigration returned to high levels and continued unabated, forming the nucleus of today’s large population of illegal aliens.”

Thanks for the link. I couldn’t read the story because the site requires that I should remove my ad blocker, and i will not do that.

However, it is interesting that apparently some in the Obama Administration are putting a kibosh on the recount. I hope they have some kind of juice to make the kibosh stick.

No Democrat insider wants anything to do with a real examination of votes. They just want a few locations run entirely by Democrats to be ‘corrected’, thus their reliance on corrupt Federal judges.

So Democrats refuse to accept the results of the 50 states. They believe a small amount of states should rule the majority of the states. So, in the mind of Democrats, a dictatorship type of government, like what is in Cuba, should rule the States

Imagine what the media and Democrats would be saying if Trump had lost and were demanding recounts

The Rats and later Rinos refused to enforce the immigration laws so yes nothing changed and Reagan still gets the blame for the amnesty. If immigration laws had been enforced the issue would have been solved.

For every red state recount, there must be a blue state recount. I say California, and weed out the illegals who don’t correspond with an American birth certificate. Then check whether at least one parent on the birth certificate was American at the time of the birth. If not completed by the deadline, toss the EVs for the state.

I'd love to just pull up a chair, sit there with a good cup of coffee, and watch all those precincts turn red.

MI just concluded it’s FIRST complete count. I doubt they will give Stein a recount. It seems the goal is to tie WI/MI/PA up in recounts so they don’t reach certifications in time to have the electors eligible by 12/8 (or whatever the date is the electors meet to cast their EVs)
