So when trump said he would use his rights to fight the election if he didn't win a bunch of different news agency's and news papers were calling it things like "an assault on democracy" and acting like it was an awful thing to even think about calling for a recount. But now Hillary has done it and nobody seems to care. There is a perfect example of your biased media everyone.
Hell she even criticized trump for saying he would do the exact thing she is doing right now.

She did not call for the re count

Damn, that really is hypocritical. Oh well, maybe Bernie Sanders will end up kicking Trumps ass in 2020. I for one wouldn't mind.

Edited by Cultmeister: 12/4/2016 12:50:36 PMHillary conceded. If she's trying to fight the result of the election she's going about it a very funny way. Trump said he might not accept the result if Clinton won. That's not 'I will call for a recount' territory, that's 'i may not accept the democratic will of the people unless they pick me'.
-
What about when he called the Electoral College a disaster of a democracy?
-
Who cares about a recount? People are being paid to do it, and I'd rather have the election be correct, regardless of who is elected
-
Don't you want justice after all you all bang on about it.

Reading your replies below, I can tell that you are extremely biased. [spoiler]I have no weight in this debate since I'm not from America though.[/spoiler]

Let's understand what is going on here. Trump was saying he might not accept the election results if he loses. Hillary and others want a recount because closely-decided swing states were within the statistical margin of error. They want to make sure the count is right, not the they're contesting the results. Hillary conceded.
-
I got the impression he wasn't talking about a recount, he was implying he wouldn't accept the results of the election didn't go his way. If he'd been specific about wanting a recount I'd say anyone criticising was being unfair, but it looked a bit like he was trying to incite people to cause trouble if he lost. He was throwing some pretty wild accusations around. No one should be criticised for calling a recount, it's there to ensure the democratic process is fair.
-
She conceded already, you can't just take it back.
-
I wonder what the next one is?
-
Os it possible to run for president without any money?
-
I find it so funny that the so-called "Democratic" party is doing so much to protest the outcome of a democratic election.
-
Is anyone here surprised that politicians are hypocrites? I don't care if either side calls a recount. It's perfectly fair and democratic as long as they accept the results.
-
I say by all means do your recounts, that's a completely fair use of the systems of check in place for the republic. You still lost Hildawg.
-
Hillary hasn't done it the people donated money and Stein lead the way. You're spinning the story like the evil media
-
*sits in a polished black leather chair* "Every single media outlet no matter who or what they are has a subliminal agenda."
-
I thought Jill Stein was calling for recounts and Clinton basically went, "That's a good idea. You should do that". Still, I agree with you. People seem to forget that candidates fought against the outcome of elections before and called for recounts.
-
If the whole recounting is supposedly for "electoral integrity", then why aren't they doing recounts in places like New Hampshire where Clinton won by only 3,000 votes?
-
Hillary? Oh you mean Satan! [spoiler]Warp Speed![/spoiler]
-
Well, when you look at Jill Stein's "run" at the the white house; if that's what you would call it, she blasted Clinton as her main adversary...and now just like Bernie, she has flipped her opinion and is not only backing Clintons camp, but doing her dirty work. I wonder if cost the Clinton camp more $$$$ to get her to go after the recount than it cost them to get the Bern to try to sway his people to vote Killary???
-
Hilary conceded which means She gave up the right for a recount! So She's now going about it in the most underhanded unethical way possible. Trump need to throw her in Jail.
-
I'll enjoy Trump winning again.
-
Jill stein called for the recount.
-
To be clear, Jill Stein is calling for recount. Hillary's campaign is supporting it.
-
I'm just waiting for the leak to come out on how much Jill Stein is being paid to do this, by the Clinton Foundation and/or George Soros. She herself has NOTHING to gain by declaring a recount. NOTHING. I'd expect this more out of Johnson just because he's that weird.
