Three weeks ago, Donald J. Trump was declared the winner early Wednesday morning on Wednesday November 9 around 2:45 a.m. EST. Hillary Clinton conceded the election to Donald Trump sometime later Wednesday morning. From that time forward President-elect Trump has been working on his transition into the White House by making cabinet picks. Then all of a sudden this past week, former Green Party candidate is filing a petition for a recount in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The Clinton team are joining in the effort as a well. A Trump aide is launching a defense fund.
A recount is a long and complicated process in which there is a lack of time since Stein waiting three weeks to file a petition on recounts in three states. The deadline to certify the election results is within a matter of days within Wisconsin or Michigan. Pennsylvania doesn't allow for statewide recounts like Stein requested unlike some other states.
Most experts believe the outcome isn't going to make any difference because Trump will still come out on top even if the election were to be thrown in the House of Representatives. This recount effort is probably being spurred on by George Soros of MoveOn.org and the Democrats. They're using Jill Stein to do the dirty work. I believe this recount is nothing but a distraction. If a recount was going to take place, it should've immediately taken place following the election--not three weeks after. It's a sham, as far as I'm concerned. Time is running out before the electoral college meets which is December 19. Click on the above link to read the full story.
