Good luck getting him to actually pay it!

It's all fun in games with they can blame it all on Trump. When he's gone, BLM dies.

Well...……………… when there were 300,000 fake ballots, that should be pretty easy.

Trump said many times how this would exactly play out. I went to bed at 3am with Trump up significantly and the betting markets predicting it. Then all of sudden hundreds of thousands of votes came in for Biden and zero for Trump.

But hell, let him be his divisive self that no Trump supporter will admit he is.

It’s almost a surprise to some people that the Trump campaign would want him to win the election. Why wouldn’t he call for a recount, it’d be insane not to. Why would he call for a recount in places he won, the Biden campaign can do that, it’s within their right.

It’s almost if people are surprised the Trump campaign is taking logical steps that are within their rights to do so.

I guess a Democrat has never asked for a recount before.

Wisconsin wards with more presidential votes than registered voters? 90% voter turnout state wide?

The difference is other POTUS's who asked for a recount did so one the tallies were in. Trump said before the election that he would contest a loss. Please.

3 protests going on in Madison Wi now to try to prevent Trump from stealing the election & making sure the votes are counted fairly. The protests were mistakenly identified as BLM protests.

I do believe there needs to be proven irregularities to generate a recount, I have not heard that is the case except for some random claim on Twitter.
