In a recount, all you are doing is recounting the fraudulaent votes.

This is not exactly true.
In a recount the number of fraudulent votes may increase.
This is what happened in the first Florida recount
where the number of Democrat votes increased significantly
in every county except 2.
Statistically such a result was impossibe if there was no fraud.

Correct. You can increase fraudulent votes. Since I assume the Republicians would not be manufacturing votes, all that would happen is that Johnson would have a chance to increase his margin. NOT a good thing.
