piss off don.
Trump charged in a statement that the effort was nothing but a fundraising ploy by the Green Party and its nominee, Jill Stein.
"This recount is just a way for Jill Stein, who received less than one percent of the vote overall and wasn't even on the ballot in many states, to fill her coffers with money, most of which she will never even spend on this ridiculous recount," the President-elect said in a statement, which labeled the effort as "ridiculous" in a headline.
On Saturday night, Trump tweeted, "The Green Party scam to fill up their coffers by asking for impossible recounts is now being joined by the badly defeated & demoralized Dems."

(46,166 posts)the republicans can be outrageous as they've been to president obama and actually mimic righteousness. for 8 f'n years we've had to gag that down. then someone to the turnip's left wants to do something that's perfectly legal and he starts stinking up the joint with a shit-fit.
spanone, i can't take this for 4 years let alone 8. i'm going back to donate another few bucks. heck, i had lunch out today with friends and it cost me 10 bucks. another 10 for the cause won't kill me. but if it helps to put a torque on his ass for a single day it'll be money well spent.
amen.

They're going to slip up. And when they do, it's going to blow up in their faces.

matter of fact, that tweet you show trump saying "the green party scam to fill up their coffers by asking for impossible recounts" sounds like it was written by a few on du (only hours before trump said it!)

Trump knows a scam when he sees one, that's for sure.
