Donald J. Trump was officially declared the winner of the presidential election in Michigan on Monday amid calls for a recount there and in two other states. Mr. Trump, a Republican, defeated Hillary Clinton, his Democratic opponent, by 10,704 votes in the state, or less than a quarter of a percentage point, the Michigan Board of State Canvassers announced, nearly three weeks after the Nov. 8 election.

The results, should they hold, bring his Electoral College vote total to 306, well beyond the 270 needed to win. Mrs. Clinton has 232. Michigan contributed 16 electoral votes to Mr. Trump’s total.

I think Jill Stein should be a responsible grown up now and donate the $6 million she's raised to a children's charity.

What do you think?

Most certainly she should try to grow up. Rapidly


I think she should donate it to pay off the growing national debt that is at almost 20T, as in Trillion... even though it would only pay for about 6 minutes in growth of that monster.

Can't wait until Trump's "infrastructure plan" is shown for the giant grift that it is.

Ah yes, because if there's anyone responsible for the national debt, it's Jill Stein.

Nowhere near as effective as Obama's shovel ready jobs and Green energy investment, am I right?!

Who said anything about responsibility?

Its a waste of money that could be applied towards and already existing problem.

Myself, I would rather we just take all of you who vote for people who want to tax more and borrow more to spend on more and more and more silliness, divide all that debt up amongst you, the obviously willing.

You? No, you and the O bomb a lover types want to spread the wealth, or in this case the geometrically expanding debt, with all of us.

trumps plan actually makes sense as he wants to divert money from the UN climate scam to help pay for it.
only I bet he doesn't pay a dime until the work actually starts unlike Obama who just gave out money with
no results.

that is if the house doesn't stuff it.

I agree with that. Obama's was a fiasco. No reason to think government will do any better with another try.

Hey, thanks for telling me what I think. I do appreciate it.
 
Stein and now Clinton are the biggest hacks on the planet at this point.
they are attempting to thwart a legal election with conspiracy theory claims.

This isn't about voters rights or anything else. This is in fact now about not allowing specific states to
get their electoral votes in before December 13th dead line.

why is this?

stein asked for a recount in WI. They decided to give it to her even though she only received 1% of the vote.
They rejected her on a hand recount which could take months not weeks.

She has filed suit against the state for rejecting the hand recount. Of course in court she actually has to provide evidence
which she says that she doesn't have any that any fraud or hacking occurred. more so hacking since that is her main claim.

Stein sues to force recount by hand in Wis., files suit for Pa. recount

She missed the deadline to file for a recount in PA.
yet she has sued for a statewide recount in PA even though she hasn't filed the proper paper work or has the proper
method, and the fact that she is late.

Jill Stein requests recount in Pennsylvania but has no evidence of fraud.

The fact is that hack she is using as a source is wrong. the claims of a cyber attack on machines not connected to the internet is frankly idiotic
even the person himself came out and said that his comments were taken out of context but the fact is he shouldn't have made them in
the first place.

Even so she is sueing but again she has 0 evidence to support herself.
the only reason to do this is to upend an legally done election.

MI should be the same thing as PA. She has to prove some kind of fraud or hacking.
since she can't do it then it should be thrown out.

What is worse is Clinton is dragging on her hind heels supporting this disaster.
this is an attempt to fraud the election.

First, what is grift? Do you deny our infrastructure is in sore need of repair and replace? Why would you root against finding a solution to both infrastructure neglect and a significant jobs program that could put hundreds of thousands of new construction workers on payrolls?

Is it that important to you to win, if it can even be called that?

I have a hunch that Trump's "infrastructure program" will be little more than a giant kickback to construction companies.

Happy reading. It's a blast. Dummy version: it's a tax cut for investors who are backing "profitable" construction projects. Nobody's even expected to expand existing employment.

I have a hunch you could be wrong.
