And the hypocricy continues with hilLIARy

Nov 27, 2016 5:23AM PST

Jill Stein's 'scam' donations total over $5M now (with no guarantees according to her website) for recounts in three States that Trump won isn't enough for hilLIARy........she stated during two debates that she found it 'horrendous' and 'horrifying' that Trump wouldn't commit to honoring the election results, and yet her campaign has announced that they are joining Stein in the fight for recounts, in the hope that the Electoral College which doesn't formalize their votes until the middle of December, will swing in her direction for all three States giving HER the election instead. Even though her own campaign and Stein's have both said that there is NO evidence that ANY hacking has been done in those three States. hilLIARy must really love humiliating herself because she does it over and over again. Talk about a masochist......

The puzzle to me is that it's a candiate

that wasn't even close in the tally that is permitted to and is doing this. Unless she wasn't really serious about running, feels that her candidacy denied HC the blue ribbon and is now feeling personal remorse, I can make no sense of this.

That's why people are calling

Stein's efforts a scam.....the website itself says that attorney fees could be around $4M of the donations and that her campaign would then use the balance left for 'other' purposes, with no indication of what that might mean. I'm suspecting that since she got around 1% of the total votes nationwide that many donating are hilLIARy supporters hoping for a better result and that she will sweep in and get the election after all. More money going solely into Stein's coffers with 'some' money coming from the Clinton campaign.....but the State taxpayers are the ones who will pick up the tab for any actual recount. One of the things Stein is asking for, in addition to making sure the voting machines weren't hacked, is something that is totally illegal, from what I've been reading. She's asking for the paper ballots to be examined.....giving her personal campaign information about the people who voted because her campaign had no database to work with and this would give her that database in at least three States. She has one agenda, Clinton has another (just like Sanders coming under the Dem tent in order to get on the ballot).....and both are losers in this fight because not only will a recount not happen in any of the States since the vote wasn't even close, but no judge will allow the other issue Stein is hoping to get.

To quote Clinton herself.....and she conceded before the final tally was in via a phone call to Trump saying she would accept the results......'what difference, at this point, does it make'?

Don't worry about Hillary....

TheRUMP is going to LOCK HER UP....oh wait...this just in...he doesn't want to hurt her.

I guess charges aren't pending.

Pitty the fools that voted for TheRUMP thinking he was going to prosecute Hillary.

He can't win fer losin'

Folks chided or condemned him for threatening to do mean things to people.
Then, when he said he'd changed his mind and wouldn't do them, he's being criticized by the same folks for flip-flopping on his threat to do mean things to people. Ya' just can't make some folks happy no matter how hard ya' try.

Ya' just can't make some folks happy no matter how hard ya' try.

OR how many lies you tell or how many times you change your mind.

Is changing your mind the same as lying?

Is there any possible way i could meld LIAR into Trump?

TLIARump?

Two things....
Nov 27, 2016 2:59PM PST

Did you ever once consider that as a shrewd man (who won, btw), he could be appeasing BO into a false sense of security so he won't pardon the crook before he leaves office, leaving the door wide open for the crook to be prosecuted later on? The priority is NOT her so he can afford to bide his time with that while investigations continue (they haven't stopped in case you don't know that).

Second....his AG will make that decision....all Trump can do will be to recommend a special prosecutor that the AG will select.

So you admit his promise/threat to LOCK HER UP!!!! was beyond HIS control.

Did you ever once consider that as a shrewd man (who won, btw)

TheRUMP is "shrewd" and you love shrewd people...

You've called BO "cunning" and you don't like Obama, you don't like cunning people?

Love shrewd...hate cunning?

You're a very picky eater.

It's simple

Stein is setting herself up for 2020 and hopes to assume the Hillary "mantle" by doing this. She will probably do like Bernie and "join" the Democratic party to run for office. In doing this she endears herself to Hillary supporters for the future, raises money for use in campaign later, makes amends to those who blame her particularly for helping Hillary fail, since they assume her votes would all have gone for Hillary.
