TRUMP SLAMS RECOUNT PUSH AS 'A SCAM,' SAYS ELECTION IS OVER (Fake News)
AP ^ | Nov 26, 2016 | Steve Peoples

President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday condemned a growing push to force recounts in three states pivotal to his Nov. 8 victory, confronting the Green Party-backed effort for the first time even as he worked to address key Cabinet vacancies.

The New York billionaire, who charged the election was "rigged" on a daily basis before his victory, called the developing recount effort "a scam" in a statement released by his transition team.

Trump had been ignoring Green Party nominee Jill Stein's fight to

The bias and tone in the article is amazing. The press is declaring all out war on Trump.

Worst Case - Trump can lose Wisconsin AND Michigan and still win with the firewall that is Pennsylvania, which Trump won by 1.2 percent of the vote. Clinton/Soros would have to steal 70,000 votes to overcome his margin and Philadelphia is already tapped out. He keeps PA and he has 280 electoral votes, 10 more than is needed. Why Jill Stein had standing is beyond me; with one percent of the vote in these states, she has no dog in this fight and can’t possibly get enough votes to win. She is obviously a stalking horse for Clinton/Soros and the nefarious scheme they have cooked up in an effort to steal the election.

This is a Team Hillary effort, and the goal is to make Hillary president.

By any means necessary. The only way to get rid of the Clintons is to put a proverbial stake through their vampire hearts.

Are Hillary’s supporters supporting her words?

I don’t think Jill Stein needs to have any legal standing to request a recount in Wisconsin, but I believe in Michigan she would have to demonstrate that she has a chance in hell of winning the election in order to get a recount even at her own expense.

New Hampshire is much closer than either Pennsylvania or Wisconsin. Why isn’t Stein calling for that state to be recounted as well?

I totally agree. We’re probably looking at them manufacturing tens of thousands of votes.

But Hillary is not interested in having a discredited or weakened Trump presidency. She’s playing to be king.

Michigan Republican Party Chairman, Ronna Romney McDaniel, issued the following statement regarding a potential recount in Michigan:

Gezz they are everywhere

“On November 8th, Michigan voters went to the polls, cast their ballots, and Donald Trump won Michigan. Despite no evidence of election tampering or hacking, and being 2.2 million votes behind Donald Trump, Green Party candidate Jill Stein appears to be going forward with a challenge to the Michigan election results. The Michigan Republican Party has been in touch with the Republican National Committee and the Trump campaign, and we are prepared to recruit volunteers, train them, and monitor all recount efforts to ensure that it is done in a fair and legal way.

SOS (Dhimmicrat) in Wisconsin has agreed to the recount.

I woould think that SOS in Michigan and Pennsylvanis (both Pubbies) would decline citing “no standing” as Stein lost by massive number. “Integrity of the vote” not withstanding.

He didn't limit his comments to the system. He also said the election was rigged.

My concern in Michigan would be Wolf Blitzer’s Election Night mantra - “Clinton’s is losing Michigan because her margin and total votes in Wayne County (Detroit) are down)”. This tells me that George Soros, a man without patriotism in my view, will fund a group called “BVM” which will demand a specific recount in Wayne, which will “find” 10,000 uncounted votes in boxes, thereby bringing the results up to the “expected” level. It will be MUCH more difficult in Pennsylvania, where the official Secretary of State website shows Trump leading by 70,528 votes. This is far too much to steal, even for Clinton/Soros and having the corrupt City of Philadelphia in the State’s cornerstone. Without Pennsylvania, Clinton/Soros can’t get below 280 without individual electors switching their votes.

Recount every where. Omit the dead votes, illegal votes and duplicate votes.
