The right wingers in my office are going ape-shit right now.

[SpankMe]

They're all buzzing and bitching over the fact that Hillary's campaign is participating in a recount effort, saying that she's a hypocrite for "not accepting the results of the election" after she insisted that Trump accept the results.

Apparently, they know nothing about reality. Clinton joined Stein in a recount on one area only. They have made no statements about trying to turn around the election. They're just trying to keep the record straight. Hillary's conceded. There's pretty much no going back now.

But, you can't stop these "experts" from putting words into Hillary's mouth.

From an article:

Brian Fallon, a spokesman for the Clinton campaign, rejected the notion that the campaign’s actions might suggest to some that it was not accepting the election results. He also disputed that the campaign had “backed a recount.”

“The post says we would not have sought the recount on our own, that we see no evidence of tampering so far, and acknowledge the margin in Michigan, which is the tightest of the three, exceeds the largest deficit ever overcome in a recount,” Fallon wrote to The Washington Post. “We note we are guarding our prerogatives now that someone else has launched a recount. Not sure what you could point to to suggest there is anything here that calls the results into question.”

2. Haven't they heard that it was Trump ..

... who insisted that millions of people voted illegally?

Shouldn't their messiah be wanting to get to the bottom of such malfeasance for the good of the country, and the integrity of our voting system?

3. Trump isn't producing any evidence of voter fraud causing him to lose the popular

Vote total, when are they going to demand the truth from Trump.

4. I'm not sure that truth and tRump can be used in the same sentence

BTW. I loved Ann Richards, wish she was still with us

She took no prisoners

10. Perhaps he obtained this information from the same source he got the

Information of Muslims dancing on building tips in NJ.

Yes, Ann Richards was a hero to me, can still hear her speech of Poor George, she was good.

5. Never argue with a crazy person

That one rule has saved me untold grief in my life.

If they have a lucid moment, you can explain how it doesn't alter the result, it just calls into question why there were more votes than people in some counties and that crooked election workers can threaten both parties, don't they want to get rid of the crooks?

That lucid moment might never occur for many of them. That's when to invoke the rule.

The rule doesn't mean you can't contradict bigotry. You just issue a flat statement and say you're not going to argue with them and make your escape. Not arguing with crazy people is key.

6. Good advice!

7. Nobody should be expected to accept election results

when there are substantial rumors of hacking, or a huge difference between the polls and the result.

Nobody who cares about the integrity of elections should object to a recount.

8. I think the Clinton team generally and

her legal eagles particularly handled this issue beautifully.

The right-wingers will squawk at anything, including at things that aren't even there.

9. Just say "Hey, she won. By about two and a half MILLION votes.

What do you think about that?"

[anamandujano]

11. "Hillary's conceded. There's pretty much no going back now." Not true. Concessions mean zip.

[Barack_America]

12. They do realize that Trump has publicly called the election into doubt?

While Hillary has officially said nothing.

[JHB]

13. Have right wingers ever accepted the results of an election they lost?

If memory serves, their usual response is undying hatred and doing their level best to imitate a car boot. "You can only move if _I_ say you can move!"
