I also heard that obama may try a recess appointment of Garland to the SCOTUS. These people will do anything. Or at least TRY anything.

Constitutional crisis? Yep. As Limbaugh says, with libs everything is a Constitutional crisis because the Constitution stands in their way. It is their roadblock....thank God!

Obama could only appoint Garland if the Senate is out of session for at least ten consecutive days at some point over the holidays. McConnell won't let that happen.

If you recall, Obama tried to appoint a guy to the NLRB a few years ago during a holiday recess. In the end, SCOTUS smacked him down and the vote against him was unanimous.

Spike,

McConnell is the reason the Garland nomination went nowhere. He's not about to change his mind at this point.

The people who are thinking about challenging the election are bat-sheet-crazy. Their premise is the voting machines might have hacked.

Why do they think that? It's because The Witch From Hell did worse in three swing states where machines were used than they did in areas of those states where paper ballots were used.

PROBLEM!

Paper ballots were mostly used in big urban areas and machines were generally used in rural areas.

HEY, MORONS!! Rural people are far more likely to hate Clinton's guts than are those in urban areas. That's why she didn't do as well when machines were used.

Jeeesh!

Too funny!

The college professor who raised this theory now says he does not think a recount will produce a different result.

Seriously!

There is too much momentum now for the election to be nullified and declare clinton the winner. If that were to happen, there would be hell to pay.

As far as the crier in chief making a recess appointment for a Supreme Court justice, Article II, Section 2, paragraphs 2 and 3 sum it up. The Senate has an active role no matter what.

First, Clinton is not thinking about it others are asking for it since she is up by more than 2 million in pop vote.

Professionally if I were her I think she should she's up by more than 2 million in pop vote. Personally if I were her I would let it go since it would do more harm than good.

No matter the side you are on this election taught us one thing - this is what happens when the people who should be running don't. Two terrible choices that make you feel like you are kissing your sister before you go to bed.

These are the results when the people will not vote at any costs for those who should have been running and those who did run as in all of their predecessors. What could make anyone think that the status quo, same old same old political conspirator would suddenly change their stripes this year and be your guardian angel? The people bought enough of these losers B.S. and promises and said enough is too much. Well, some people anyway. Some here still believe in these fairytales. This is the reason are country is in such disarray but there will be those who just can't let go of the good old "stick it up their a$$" and they will like it days. The bending over days are over for me. That one is your call. Donald Trump is the not the final answer to all our woes because not a single person could ever be. Outside of executive orders what can he truly accomplish on his own? Make deals. That's it. No tickee no laundry. He is smart enough to surround himself with the best minds available and delegate. He like all others will take the credit for the successes and the abuse for the failures. At the end of the day ALL final matters are his call and the results will lead to sleeping well or sleeping with one eye open.

Objectively, she shouldn't because she lost according to the electoral college.

That's why it's there. To hell with the popular vote. If that's the case, then someone like Katy Perry would be elected.

Winning the popular vote and not the electoral college is the runner up or participation trophy...

I think you have to have standing to get a recount. When you get 1% of the vote as Jill Stein did, I don't see how you have that.

WHAT? JILL STEIN SLAMS HILLARY For Joining Her Hillary-Supported #Recount2016

Jim Hoft Nov 26th, 2016 7:12 pm 144 Comments

Guest post by Tom Franklin at American Lookout:

hillary-jillstein Jill Stein’s recount is slipping into the bizarre.

It’s Liberals’ last chance to overthrow Trump’s historic win. So all the crazies are joining forces.

One problem: The crazy Liberals don’t seem to like each other.

The Gateway Pundit reported that Hillary people are joining the recount:

Hillary Camp to Join Jill Stein in Recount Efforts—

Hillary Clinton’s lawyer for her presidential campaign published a statement Saturday morning to Medium that the Clinton campaign will be joining the efforts by Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein in seeking to overturn the election of Donald Trump as president by seeking recounts in key battleground states.

Marc E. Elias wrote that the Clinton campaign had been intensively investigating the election results for evidence that could be used to deny Trump the presidency without success and had not planned on seeking recounts.

However, with Stein taking the lead in seeking recounts, Elias stated Clinton will join the recount effort in Wisconsin since Stein officially filed for the recount on Friday.

Except Jill Stein doesn’t want Hillary’s help.

Stein took to Twitter and put out these tweets:

Why would Hillary Clinton—who conceded the election to Donald Trump—want #Recount2016? You cannot be on-again, off-again about democracy.

— Dr. Jill Stein (@DrJillStein) November 26, 2016

Why would Hillary Clinton—who holds "public" and "private" positions—want to engage in something as transparent as #Recount2016?

— Dr. Jill Stein (@DrJillStein) November 26, 2016

Ouch! No love lost between Jill Stein and Hillary!

And just for good measure, Jill Stein threw out some Communist language. Just so everyone would remember she’s still a Communist, maybe?

Election integrity cannot be led by a party w/o integrity, just as a revolution cannot happen in a counterrevolutionary party. #Recount2016

Yikes!

She needs to grow up and let it go. Both of them.

Jill Stein's comments fit right in with the lunatic fringe 1% that voted for her. They're as nuts as she is.
