Shouldn't that at least be checked out to ensure the results weren't tampered with? Wouldn't his presidency be less legitimate if they just ignored his allegations that there was fraud?

It's funny that you defend Trump by denouncing conspiracy theorists when Trump is the biggest conspiracy theorist of them all. It must be difficult to try to claim the election results were perfectly legitimate when he himself is spreading conspiracy theories that he got from alt-right websites that suggest the results have been tampered with. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-millions-illegal-aliens-voted-greg-phillips-three-million-tweet-infowars-alex-jones-a7443006.html The next few weeks will be hilarious.

sharkman Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Well, I mean something new. Like in now that the Dems real strategy seems to be to simply draw out the results after they lectured Trump on accepting the results.

They've simply joined an effort to examine the votes in a few states to ensure there was no hacking done by Trump's Russian backers. Hell, it's Trump who is claiming there was widespread voter fraud.

Omni Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 It seems no one thinks the recounts being considered will in any way effect the overall outcome, (which is of course sad) but it was Trump himself who kept on blathering about "it's rigged". So, let them go ahead and see if they can find rigging. I would say check for oligarch connections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smallc Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Trump said the election was rigged. Might as well find out for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkman Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) Well, now the Dems are claiming there could be voter fraud, even though there is absolutely no evidence of a Russian hack and the White House has apparently said so. It simply looks like an attempt to force the Congress and Senate to vote in Trump instead of the electoral college. Which is just more politicking from the left.

Guest Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Basically, it's like this: If you think you're going to win, the election is not rigged. If you think you're going to lose, it might well be rigged. If you win, all previous opinions are no longer valid, and it wasn't rigged. If you lose, all previous opinions are no longer valid, and it might well have been rigged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cite? Trump, not the Dems and not "the Left", is the only one claiming there absolutely was voter fraud. Do you think people should take that seriously and look into it?

?Impact Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 After the election, Trump lost the popular vote by over 1.5 million and he is claiming that is because of illegal aliens voting. After the election, Clinton lost the 3 states in question by about 150,000, and is supporting a recount. If anyone is claiming voter fraud it is Trump, by at least a factor of 10.

We already know there was possible voter fraud based on an arrest in NY. Plus she was an illegal alien from Canada. That's makes Trump right on two issues.

Trump said unequivocally that there have been shenanigans. That should be investigated to ensure the results were correct. Just because you don't think there's any credibility to what Trump says doesn't mean people shouldn't take what the president-elect says seriously.

Trump tweeted only yesterday that there was rampant voter fraud in this election. Don't you think they should investigate his accusations before the electoral college declares the winner, just to be sure? Why should they ignore what he says? He's the president-elect. Don't you have any faith that what he says might, on the off chance, be true? Edited November 28, 2016 by BubberMiley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omni Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 Trump continues to put his foot in his mouth with his twitter account saying he would have won the popular vote if millions hadn't voted illegally.
