    Let's Think about the millions of illegal voter tweet the President Elect sent out earlier. Two problems:

    First, it's an abject lie. There is no evidence that "millions" of votes were made illegally. The future president is making wild, conspiratorial claims without the slightest concern about whether those claims have any relation to the truth whatsoever. I imagine him employing this same tactic as president when it comes to matters of national security, where lives are at stake, and it gives me a very queasy feeling.

    Second, the Clinton camp is trying to get a recount in several states. The man who WON has now JUSTIFIED those recounts by claiming that millions of votes were illegitimate. By his own words, a national recount of every vote must be conducted. That's according to Trump himself. The guy who won. The guy who won just questioned the legitimacy of his own win.

    And why? Because of his pride. Even though he won, he can't stomach the idea that fewer people voted for him than Clinton. So, just to service his damned vanity, he undermined his own win and called into question the authenticity of a voting process that just resulted in him becoming president.

    We are in for four years of this crap, folks. And I'm not going to play along. I refuse. Trump is wrong here. He's lying. He's being a prideful, reckless idiot and he deserves to be raked over the coals for it. And those who defend him on this deserve to be criticized right along with him.

    • Isn't he basically calling out illegal immigrants when he says votes were made illegally? I believe that's what's between the lines...whatthefunk

    • Again, omg, your sources are from an extremely conservative leaning source.inteliboy
    • inteliboy, how exactly are you justifying your fiction against the facts? Washington Post is liberal and Pew Research Center is a "fact tank"
      ********
    • 7% of journalists identifying as Republican might suggest that repeated exposure to facts and truthful information has a liberalising effectBuddhaHat
