    It's all starting with Jill Stein. Need more be said, really?

    Dems would welcome a populace dependent upon the government for survival.

    The wager on their end is they'll be dead by the time the sheep wake up - so it will be somebody else's problem. And, hopefully, their children or grandkids will have hired enough private security to survive.

    It's not starting with Jill Stein. It's starting with computer experts who look at these things and saw irregularities in certain states between votes done by computer and paper ballot. Among similar groups, Clinton's support was 7 percent less in key precincts that used computers vs. paper, and they suspected hacking done to help Trump win the election.

    These experts were trying to convince Hillary's campaign to ask for a recount, but Clinton was loathe to get into that mess. Jill Stein, however, could carry that water.

    Why Trump would want to throw gasoline on that ember is beyond me, except that he consistently says people are much more guilty of whatever he is accused of.

    Can you just wait for YF to respond and then cheer him on? You're not doing well flying solo.

    Even if you go down the road that the Russians padded the vote totals just enough to get Trump elected, it doesn't do the United States any good to know, does it? Nothing good comes from learning the truth.

    It creates at best-case an irreparable rift between the two parties on succession, a constitutional crisis, and at worst-case ignites a potential nuclear confrontation between the U.S. and Russia, doesn't it?

    Thanks. I knew Stein was the first one to seek a recount, but did not know the backstory.

    Trump? I think a lot of it is coming from who he's surrounding himself with and depending on for advice, the RWNJs and conspiracy theorists. Is he still no longer meeting with national security advisers for briefings?

    Who needs private security when you can buy more guns than you need?

    If you've got nothing to hide, what's the problem? Check those papers.
