President elect Mango Jesus now claims he won the popular vote when you deduct the millions who voted illegally. This thin skinned petty prick can't even accept the results when he wins. Thanks again Republicans.

Trump now falsely claims voter fraud in Virginia, New Hampshire, and California. We have a President elect who is purposely spreading fake news to cast doubt among his gullible followers about a recount of votes in some states. He's convincing these rubes the system is rigged against him whether he wins or loses. This crazy a-hole is seriously frightening and disturbingly unpredictable in his madness.
Do any of you Trump voters have a comment about these developments?

Edit: Will Trump voters fail to see the irony of their candidate criticizing a recount and simultaneously claiming massive voter fraud?

They are going to claim that Hillary is doing the same thing with the recount, even though for one it's Jill Stein initiating the action. It's all part of a Stein/Clinton/Soros conspiracy. Of course even if that were true that this is a team effort, their behavior is hardly the same as the Nectarine Nightmare. I think it's best to quote Robrt Reich on this one:

Trump issued a flurry of tweets last night and early this morning, accusing Hillary Clinton of hypocrisy for joining Jill Stein’s recount in Wisconsin and potentially other states, since during the campaign Clinton had criticized Trump for suggesting he wouldn’t concede if she won.

Baloney, for 4 reasons:

1. The issue during the campaign wasn't whether Trump would forfeit his right to participate in recounts or contest a close result; it was whether he would commit to accepting the election result, even where the margin wasn’t even close. He said the election was going to be stolen from him regardless of what the actual result showed, claiming there would be massive election fraud even before it was even alleged to have occurred.

2. At an October 20 rally, Trump backed away from this and said he was only preserving his right to a recount in a close result. “If Al Gore or George Bush had agreed three weeks before the election to concede the results and waive their right to a legal challenge or a recount, then there would be no Supreme Court case and no Gore v. Bush." Well then, fine. He should have no trouble with the recount that Jill Stein and Hillary Clinton are now doing.

3. Trump won the election because he carried three critical Rust Belt states by about 1 point or less -- Wisconsin by 0.8 percent, Michigan by 0.2 percent and Pennsylvania by 1.1 percent. If Clinton had won by such close margins, it wouldn’t be unreasonable for Trump to participate in recounts in one or more of those states.

Also, the Trump supporter is likely to say "give him a chance, he's not even President yet". I'm more likely to say "Jesus Christ, how's he going to act when he's got the power".

I will say, at least it's reassuring to know that Trump never had a private email server.:sarc:

It wasn't a vote for HRC, it was a vote against fear and hatred. I'd be even more afraid of what lies ahead if people merely sat back, "gave him a chance", and normalized his behavior. His pick for security adviser raises eyebrows, and his pick for attorney general is alarming. I can only imagine who his supreme court nominee will be. True he has walked back some of the campaign promises that appealed to the so-called alt-right that helped him get elected, but he is a pathological liar with no ideology of his own. I'm sure some will try to spin that as a positive. By the way, let's call the alt-right what they are. They are extreme white nationalists appropriately referred to as Nazis. That moment when Godel's law doesn't apply.
pathological liar...let me see, who would fit the Bill....

I don't know about the rest of you, but this seems pretty concerning to me. The infusion of fake news stories into American journalism by Russia might just be a little more important than a broadway musical. There's nothing to stop this practice from continuing for the indefinite future.

If it weren't for fake news stories, Trump would have nothing to talk about.

Pussygrabber is considering a man with a p***y weakness and conviction for knowingly passing classified Intel to his mistress for position of Secretary of State. Irony much? Who knows what secrets he will give up for a quick handjob from a sexy spy. Looks as if Trump is trying militarize his cabinet.

I thought he was already married to a spy... straight out of late sixties James Bond.

I'm still waiting for those elusive tax returns and a coherent explanation about why there weren't any leaks and/or hacking of the Republican party and Trump campaign.

I will be concerned when we have real, hard facts. Everything is speculation at this point.

People are so concerned that we had a record 4 day sales period and the stock market continues to soar. so the sky hasn't fallen yet.

When a young guy from Chicago took over eight years ago with ties to radical groups and individuals...proven ties, the world didn't end.

Lighten up Francis.

Speculation was all that was needed for endless investigations by Repubs for the last eight years why the sudden shift? Of course we could find out more but it seems the House Oversight Committee has suddenly lost their sense of curiosity. The majority of voters voted against Trump and he overwhelming lost the popular vote so most voters want some answers.
