    Your core point is wrong. Romney lost the popular vote by just shy of 5 million votes.

    Barack Obama - 332 electoral votes, 65,915,795 total votes
    Mitt Romney - 206 electoral votes, 60,933,504 total votes

    You are entitled to your own opinions, but your opinions are not facts.

    It's definitely sore loser Clinton supporters who are funding her. If anything they should do recounts in so-called "sanctuary cities" to make sure that illegals didn't vote.

    So you want the right to waste their money to recount in a way that has 0 chance of changing anything, instead of the left wasting their money to recount in a way that has 0 chance of changing anything?

    At least Pence won't start Twitter wars with former Miss USA winners who hurt his feelings. Sad how low my hopes and expectations are for this administration at the moment.

The first /popcorn moment though will come when the debt ceiling debate comes up in March watch all the factions in the Republican party pull out the knives and stab each others political capital to death but that is a topic for another day.
    Yeah I think you're right. I don't think it will happen quite that quickly, but I think if/when things go south he'll be the scapegoat.

    Don't read through his posts too much, it will make you sad.

    I should have been clearer and pointed out that is the appetizer to the main course and be a preview of what will happen later. If Trump thinks hes going get a legitimate infrastructure plan (even if its basically built around private road construction and tax breaks) and have republicans fall in line hes a bigger fool than we think.

    Then we still have the major elephant in the room where it appears we will be heading into a nasty recession here in the next few years and republicans could easily make it worse by removing key regulations like they are promising.

    20K+ votes is not slim. Slim is approximately 1500 votes Hillary won New Hampshire by. Why are the lefties not crying for a recount here if all they are looking for is to make sure an accurate election count was made.

    I hope us republicans somehow magically lose this recount (we won't) so that we can show the left how to act once again when the left wins. All building will stay intact.

    Because it is the left. They will respond with no u remarks and preach to be the bigger man, but never acting upon it. What they really mean is don't do what I do, do as I say.

    While the person you want as president will spam twitter with rigged election, demanding riots, and saying you have to fight to correct things.. Yep.

    The nonsense spouted by several right leaning people in this thread is indicative of why we have an imbecile on his way to the WH.
    Romney won the popular vote in 2008... oops, I mean 2012. Soros destroys counties. Etc...

    Facts seemingly have no meaning to the "new" right.

    My apologies to the non Americans reading this. You'll have to indulge us for the next several years. You can be sure the majority of the US likes this even less than you do.
    Rudimentary creatures of blood and flesh. You touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.
    You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it.

    20k votes is less than 2 percent of the overall vote in WI. I said that in my opinion, recounts should be mandatory in elections where margins are slim, that would include situations like in New Hampshire. Honestly I thought she lost NH, apparently I haven't been keeping up with the news.

    All that willfully ignorant trash aside, Romney of course lost the popular vote by five million in 2012. People who pretend their subjective viewpoint matters more than objective reality are hilarious. Probably something to do with the palpable desperation of trying to mask such incredible insecurity that they would feel the need to lie about something so petty. Someone should definitely do a study.
    There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." - Isaac Asimov

    It's more about maintaining the integrity of the elections than Left vs Right. Any Clinton supporter who thinks this will actually lead to her being president is extremely delusional. There is a chance sure, but it's very, very minor.

    The majority does not, which is why Trump is president.

    Also this.
    Yet none of it has happened.

    Also, you had me ignored from the classic wow server thread. Decided that you are going to attempt to come at me again?

    The majority weighted by the filter of the electoral college, not the majority of the US. The majority of US citizens did not even go out to vote. Also, Barack Obama is president, Trump is President-Elect.

    I agree. I think to do a recount because there is noway Hillary could of lost unless Trump cheated is ridiculous.
