Donald Trump is NOT happy about the potential recounts!
As you surely know, over the weekend, Hillary Clinton‘s campaign lawyer revealed that the former Secretary of State would be participating in the Wisconsin recount after Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein headed the efforts earlier in the week.

In an open letter about the recount, Clinton’s lawyer Marc Elias wrote:
“It should go without saying that we take these concerns extremely seriously. We certainly understand the heartbreak felt by so many who worked so hard to elect Hillary Clinton, and it is a fundamental principle of our democracy to ensure that every vote is properly counted.”
While Elias noted that the Clinton campaign had NOT been privy to any information about vote tampering, they felt they should stand by Miz Stein and her efforts — especially in other states like Michigan and Pennsylvania. Obviously, this sent the President-elect into a tizzy as he (first) sent out a statement on the matter and (then) took to his beloved Twitter to rant about the issue.
One highlight from the tirade was when he falsely claimed that he had won the Electoral College in a “landslide” and accused Hill’s HUGE popular vote win of being made up of illegal votes (below)!
In addition to winning the Electoral College in a landslide, I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally

Our future President, ladies and gentlemen! Be sure to ch-ch-check out his full temper tantrum on the matter for yourself (below)!
At first, the Trumpster tried his hand at being a professional by releasing a statement:

Unfortunately, Donald couldn’t maintain a sense of professionalism as then took to Twitter and penned:
The Green Party scam to fill up their coffers by asking for impossible recounts is now being joined by the badly defeated & demoralized Dems

The Democrats, when they incorrectly thought they were going to win, asked that the election night tabulation be accepted. Not so anymore!

Hillary Clinton conceded the election when she called me just prior to the victory speech and after the results were in. Nothing will change

It would have been much easier for me to win the so-called popular vote than the Electoral College in that I would only campaign in 3 or 4–

states instead of the 15 states that I visited. I would have won even more easily and convincingly (but smaller states are forgotten)!

Serious voter fraud in Virginia, New Hampshire and California – so why isn’t the media reporting on this? Serious bias – big problem!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 28, 2016
Smh! It’ll certainly be inneresting to see if this recount unearths any corruption from voting day.
Stay tuned!
