Trump Attacks CNN Reporter Over Voter Fraud Claims
POLITICO ^ | November 28, 2016 | By Christiano Lima

Posted on 11/29/2016 4:14:17 AM PST by Fennie

Donald Trump lashed out on Twitter Monday night over a CNN report refuting his unsubstantiated claims of mass voter fraud on Election Day.

The report by CNN senior Washington correspondent Jeff Zeleny, airing on "Anderson Cooper 360" earlier Monday, dismissed Trump's assertion that he "won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally" as "blatant and baseless" and accused Trump of acting as a "sore winner." Zeleny also highlighted that the president-elect had yet to provide any "hard evidence" to back up his "staggering claims of fraud."

In response, Trump fired off a series of tweets aimed at CNN and Zeleny, some original and some retweets of his online supporters, including one user who apparently is a teenager.

"CNN is so embarrassed by their total (100%) support of Hillary Clinton, and yet her loss in a landslide, that they don't know what to do," the president-elect said.

Just sayin'.....part of DJT's style is to put statements out there that sound unfounded, even outrageous. When he does that, he doesn't cite his sources. The result? All of the sellouts yell and scream and rant and rave. Then they end up looking like total *sses when the facts support what Trump said.

Does the domestic globalist enemy really want a serious recount? It would give Trump a list of non-citizens who voted illegally. That would be a cause for deportation.

Cha.....Ching!!

PS: I like using "DJT". It just sounds so in command.

I live in NC and they ask your name, look you up on voter rolls, have you sign a paper and supposedly match your signature but you are not asked for any sort of ID, not even your voter’s registration card.

That's how it works where I live in PA, too. But the chances are pretty good that when you go to vote you'll run into someone who knows you or recognizes the name you announce and you'd better be you!

I live in Louisiana. When I vote they first look my name up in the registered voter log and I sign my name exactly as it appears on my drivers license that I have to show.

No fraud here that I am aware of.

ABC radio news spent all day sniping at Trump over this. Top and bottom of every hour they’d run the Ohio State knifer story followed instantly by a blurb “debunking” Trump for his popular vote comments. Pretty obvious they were doing this for “balance” since they knew the Ohio State story helped Trump.

Here’s the thing — everybody knows Trump is right about this. The exact number is unknown but it ain’t zero and Trump’s 3 million is a reasonable conjecture.

It’s just like with the Muslims dancing in the streets after 9/11. Trump was mistaken about thousands in Jersey City but his bigger point was right on target and it was good to see someone finally say it out loud.

Trump is no "sore winner"

One of the election night programs -- I think the one hosted by Katie Couric -- had the stunned panel mulling over the devastating likelihood that Trump was about to win. One of them wondered if he would win graciously. Another replied, does he do anything graciously?

The irony was palpable, as they were losing and grumbling, but as on all the other programs that night, they were lost in the wilderness.

Bingo. Trump needs to push thru a national protect the vote bill that would create national standards. And improve the integrity of the system.

Good points. Since voting is a state issue it will be tough to sink in the fed teeth into this but I think there is a way: 14th amendment.

There is no ID required to vote by mail. The Denver CBS outlet found proof that dead people were voting.

Every time they lash out at Trump for this sort of thing I’m reminded of the guy in the Jerk yelling, “He’s not carnival personnel!” It’s in the same spirit, and just as funny.

“””

“Here in Virginia (case #1) the Gov added 60,000 felons to the voter rolls”

Her Thighness carried VA by roughly 210,000 votes, so 60,000 felons voting Dem is not insignificant. Are health clinics required to register people to vote? Who funds county health clinics?
“”

McAwful tried to sign up 200,000 but was stopped....and I was told that under Obama it was mandatory to ask each person, it was part of the health clinic job....as you can see I was not happy that voter registration was added to their job detail. So yes in my opinion, fraud would be easy...
