White House doubles down on Trump's voter fraud claim
MSN AP ^ | January 24, 2017

Posted on 01/24/2017 1:14:38 PM PST by SMGFan

The White House on Tuesday stuck firmly to President Donald Trump's claim that millions of people voted illegally in the November election, but provided no evidence to back up his assertion. Trump spokesman Sean Spicer said the president "does believe" that he lost the popular vote to Democrat Hillary Clinton only because of widespread illegal ballots. "He believes what he believes, based on the information he was provided," Spicer said. But he would not detail what information he was referring to, citing only a 2008 study that called for updating voter rolls but did not conclude there has been pervasive election fraud.

Didn't the Democrats have a history of being concerned with the seriousness of the charges , not the nature of the evidence. But forget all of the actual evidence.

He’s giving them something to focus on while he gets meaningful stuff done. It’s the old bait and switch and their too stupid to realize it.

Have the RATS already forgotten James O’Keefe? Do they not realize he went far deeper into the lions’ den than his videos describe? Are they sure they wanna play with this?

Trump thinks there was voter fraud.

He didn’t claim it was 100% certain.

Our media hasn’t got the sense of an average intelligence third grader.

Democrats always fight voter ID laws; one wonders why.

Sure glad the media is giving Trump a ‘honeymoon’ period.

Obama got at least six years, and more like eight.

Trump didn’t get six seconds, more like eight.

HOW CAN THERE *BE* EVIDENCE?

There’s no checking of ID. Anyone can vote. Illegals in particular were encouraged to do so by our ex-president.

I have absolutely no doubt that at least 1.5 MM illegal votes were cast in California alone.

The ol’ razzle-dazzle and sleight of hand. Send them down a rabbit hole and while they’re down there, take care of business. :)

Exactly what I thought! Great minds and all that. It’s a great strategy that doesn’t allow the networks to focus on the nominees.

Up until about a week ago, the fake-news MSM was claiming the Russians helped DJT steal the entire election.

Now they're claiming there's no such thing as vote fraud.

I’m loving them obsessing over this while Trump is implementing real change to govt.

Goad the MSM into saying “where’s the evidence” and then order Attorney General Jefferson Beauregard Sessions to conduct a detailed investigation of voting rolls and records.

CNN is going nuts over this voter fraud.... I mean when expresident obamma said on nation TV that if you lived in America you could vote without worrying about being caught and deported. The democrats claimed voter fraud/hacking until the investigation indicated the screwed up polls were in the highly populated democrat urban areas. When you apply for a drivers license they ask you if you want to register to vote. Illegals in CA and other states can get drivers license.... and may register to vote. And then there are all the dead folks and those that ride the buses from poll to poll and from state to state. Clean this crap up.

Good move on Trumps part to kick this hornets nest.

This can very publicly open the door to a real investigation.

Fight back with the Detroit recount from a month or so back. 37% of precincts had more votes than people signed up

Thirty seven percent . . . .then project that over every big city . . You know there’s massive voter fraud in the inner cities, and there’s even been several reports of people who’ve bragged of voting for Obambi 7 times or more.

Oh yeah, and ask why Obama made the not so subtle suggestion that illegals should vote in the days leading up to the election

And why they’re so opposed to Voter ID
