Seriously, in what way is this a good idea? If he flip flops on this because someone supports a recount that will simply validate his win, its a clear signal that he is acting out of childishness, not out of a desire to act like a president. And once the prosecution is clearly politically motivated, it makes us a third world country.

In other words...this is about the recount, not the crime. This is a horrible idea. Why am I not surprised?
He said he wouldn't appoint a special prosecutor so the country could move on. Since Hillary obviously doesn't have the same goal, I see no problem with him changing his mind.

What country do you live in where being a politician is a guaranteed get out of jail free card? Being a current or former ANYTHING shouldn't prevent someone from going to jail if they're convicted, and Hillary has already admitted to enough that would get any normal person convicted just for her incompetent handling of classified documents.

This is a good point. Hillary conceded and said that Trump won but now she is pursuing this fruitless effort with Stein. So Trump should likewise counter with taking back his word to leave her alone.

As for Clinton, they been investigated for decades and nothing has been found or done. I'm really sure this will be the thing they nail her on.
The fact one of the demented duo was a sitting governor then POTUS while the other was a Senator and then SOS under the corrupt Obama may just have affected the investigations a wee bit no?

I'm going to go with: media was wrong.

Even in the so-called report that was used as proof that he wasn't, the words did not actually come out of his mouth, so I never believed it.

I can't wait until this recount is done, the EC voters vote him in, and January 20th rolls around with him sworn in.

Then we can stop this idiocy from the MSM, the left can continue to pout - who cares, and we can get down to the business of fixing what those morons messed up for 8 years, and fix what the idiots did before that.

Having said all of that...I never put much stock in to what this guy on YouTube says, as he has been one of those click bait types, and he's been stupidly wrong in the past.

We just have to wait and see what will actually happen.

I too am looking forward to the 20th of January. Then we can focus on what he is doing more. LOL. Then folks on the right can discover how fun it is to stand in your glass house while people throw rocks.

Yes but as unpredictable as Trump is, his cabinet is pretty consistent. Considering that Trump is more going to be the face of a right wing populist movement, I'd say his cabinet will pretty much keep his promises for him despite his intentions.
