Trump will have to pay $7.9M UP FRONT if he wants a recount in Wisconsin, where he trails by 0.6%.

My guess? They will take a hard pass.

Neither does a campaign with a reported $1.6B in debt.

I'm with SkyDog, I bet it doesn't happen. Made doubly confusing by the fact that WI is one of the ~30 states that used some Dominion voting machines.

If he has any sense he will forget about it. I think this is all a ploy anyway. He wants to keep his base interested until he goes to Mar-A-Lago for vacation and never returns.

He has no real interest in overturning the election, it's just another scam he's pulling on his followers so he doesn't have to admit he got beat.

Yep, and there's no way he's going to be flushing $7 million of that revenue stream down the toilet by recounting WI when he knows it will be turned off soon.

Wait, I thought Trump was a successful business man worth Billions...that's what you Trumpists tout...if he's a billionaire, $7.9 million is a drop on the bucket for ole Don...if he truly feels he won, he should have no problem paying that out for a recount.

I read somewhere that maybe he's playing at insanity/dementia in order to skate on any charges, due to 'diminished capacity'.

We'll know by Wednesday if he's willing to pay. November 18th is the deadline to pay for the recount.

Then what the heck is all the emails the Trump campaign is sending out requesting money to fight on?


Oh, that's right. To pay off the campaign debt. Line Trump's pockets. Pay off everyone but those 30 bus drivers that were stiffed that night in Iowa.
