    They should request a recount but at the same time Trump should request a recount in Minnesota, New Hampshire and Nevada.

    Recount won't change result.

    So if the recount shows that Hillary won those three states can President-elect Trump ask for a recount of the recount?
    And if so what if the numbers show that he won?
    The American election process is completely ridiculous.

    i'm sure there's an appeals process. but if that happens (it won't), i am guessing you will be eating your words about the "hateful and violent left/radlibs". the violence that would erupt from this would be historic.

    Even if there was the left/radlibs will always be hateful and violent fullstop.

    Why would he be?
    America voted he won.
    Now you have all the whiners desperately clinging to a faint hope that their nightmare is not real.
    President-elect Trump is your next ruler folks.

    But Obama allies are dead-set against the multi-state recount effort. Former Obama White House Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer mocked it on Twitter:
    "The amount of Democratic energy and money being wasted on recounts instead of trying to win the Louisiana Senate Race is mind boggling," he tweeted on Thursday.

    Trump spent the last couple months telling everyone that the election was rigged. For once everyone believed what he said, and now he's mad. I just don't get this guy, nothing pleases him!

    And the Clintonites kept telling us to accept the results...

    It's not a game. Trump is complaining about this audit being stupid, but he is the one who told everyone it's rigged. That is a clear absurdity.
    The Democratic party isn't calling for or paying for this audit. The Green Party is. So I am not sure why you thought your come back about "Clintonites" was apt. Last I heard, Jill Stein couldn't stand Clinton.

    Stein won't become POTUS if this audit finds something amiss so essentially she does stand Clinton.

    Only by default. I think Stein actually is just standing for a fair election. I don't even like Stein, but I think that is the real point. At any rate, the "Clintonites" have nothing to do with it.

    Yes the clintonites do have a lot to do w/ it.
    They sit back and let others do the work that may get them in power.
    Stein is supported by the defeated not her voters.

    So the Democrats have a lot to do with it because they aren't doing anything? Huh. Interesting.

    It is interesting.
    It would also be interesting to hear TBs analysis.
