Hillary Clinton said she wouldnt rule out challenging the legitimacy of the 2016 presidential election if Russian interference turned out to be deeper than previously thought.
No, I wouldn't rule it out, she said in an interview with NPR published Monday.
The defeated Democratic nominee stressed, however, that she does not believe there is a means to officially challenge the elections outcome.

Thanks for posting that. I was also thinking about that sanctimonious bit of hypocritical virtue signalling that Clinton spouted during one of the debates — the one where they asked Trump (but not Clinton) if he’d respect the election results.
replays showed Carbo had missed the plate entirely while trying to avoid Hendricks’ tag
What the hell does she think she's been doing since Trump was declared the winner on election night?
You appear to not have even the most vague idea who Antics are.
For the good of America, she needs to be in jail.
LOCK HER UP!
Another Clinton lie!
Gee, so much for liberals asking Trump if he would accept the results of the election.
True... and the ump gave the O's an assist by blocking the plate. Teamwork is everything! ;-)
Great target, can you do one with the circles and numbers?
If anyone believes this statement, I have beach front property at the top of Mt. Everest that I will sell to them.
Not soon enough...
Does she really want to open up that can of worms?
OK hills, let’s start with New Hampshire then

Do not take my word for it. Don’t even take Tribe’s word for it. Listen to former AG Mukasey; he knows what he’s talking about.
‘Laurence Tribe, Professor of Constitutional Law, Harvard Law School
(Via email:) “Under the laws and Justice Department regulations governing federal prosecution, a President Trump would not have legal authority to direct the Attorney General to appoint a special prosecutor to ‘look into’ Hillary Clinton’s email situation or the Clinton Foundation or anything else. That’s not within a President’s power.’

‘Judge Michael Mukasey (former U.S. Attorney General, 2007-2009, under George W. Bush; U.S. District Judge, 1987-2006, appointed by Ronald Reagan; partner, Debevoise & Plimpton)
Asked in a telephone interview whether Trump could order that a special prosecutor be appointed, “No, that’s not within his powers. I think he said, ‘I would direct my attorney general’ to exercise the power to appoint a special counsel. “The AG’s proper answer would then be, ‘I’ll think about it.’ Or ‘I’ll review the facts,’” Mukasey said. [His point is that the attorney general must exercise independent discretionnot merely carry out the President’s whims.]’
There’s much more at the link.

She would also have named Scalia's replacement. Would that make you happy?
