None of the recounts were expected to affect the outcome of the election. Stein, who received about 1 percent of the vote in all three states, said she requested them to verify the accuracy of the vote. She has suggested, without evidence, that the votes were susceptible to hacking.
I stopped it there for two reasons.
First, you didn't write it and you didn't cite your source or give credit where credit is due, so we don't need to recount all of your plagiarism.
Second, you're quoting this as if it's criticism that someone suggested, without evidence, that votes were susceptible to hacking (or voter fraud, or malfunctioning machines, or whatever flavor of the moment it may be).
And that, more than anything else, is the rub.
You've been a staunch Trump supporter on these forums, repeating, parroting, quoting without citation and tub-thumping Trump.
But he did (and still does) exactly the same thing, and more. Not only does he continue to "suggest" things without any evidence, he outright states as fact things that are complete lies.
And I've never once seen you specifically criticize him for it. You make excuses for it, you compound the lies by repeating them, you pretend they weren't lies when there's actual video of what's being denied, but you don't criticize him for it.
That, more than anything else, is what's so frankly frightening about Trump supporters (and yes, many Clinton supporters as well). They are willing to blind themselves to even the most outrageous lies that Trump utters. They actually stand up and defend him, support him, and cheer him when he's lying out the left side of his mouth while
at.the.same.time denying lying what he's lying about out the right side of his mouth.
It simply
must be an insanity, and the other fearful part of it is that just what kind of insanity would lead someone to want to defend a known, proven liar like Donald J. Trump? And the really grotesque part about that is how no Trump supporter would ever recognize it as insanity.
How can this country ever be anything but the Divided States of America ever again when people are so willing to become part of the great lie that is everything Donald J. Trump represents?
Why is it, Nova, that you and others like you can't actually see what's happening, here?
