President-elect Donald Trump is still having his regular Twitter tantrums. He should’ve taken Hillary Clinton’s advice and shut down Twitter.
Usually, Trump rants about Saturday Night Live on Sunday mornings. However, this week was a rerun, so the Mango Menace ranted about the election recount that is happening.
Jill Stein raised money to have recounts done in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan. Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said she supports these recounts.
One of her lawyers reported:
“Since the day after the election, we have had lawyers and data scientists and analysts combing over the results to spot anomalies that would suggest a hacked result. These have included analysts both from within the campaign and outside, with backgrounds in politics, technology and academia.”
The same man who was talking about the election being “rigged” against him is now raging over this recount. We all know that Trump would be doing recounts in all 50 states if he had lost.
Here is what he had to say on Twitter this morning:
Hillary Clinton conceded the election when she called me just prior to the victory speech and after the results were in. Nothing will change

Trump’s Twitter rant is just making him look bad. We are going to be a laughing stock with this guy leading. Every foreign leader he visits will be worried about being included in a Trump Twitterstorm.
He’s talking about respecting the election results, but his party wasn’t happy with the Obama elections. He had a ginormous tweetstorm after the 2012 election when President Obama won the second time. This is the same man who spent the last eight years saying our president is a Kenyan Muslim. He has no right to complain about this recount.
Here is an interview with Trump’s campaign manager Kellyanne Conway talking about the recount among other things:
