Aired on 04/23/2021.

1. This Is Truly Strange

A company that’s never done a recount before, and isn’t following the rules, and oh by the way, is led by a QAnon supporter.

What could go wrong?

[Rhiannon12866]

3. And no one knows what they're doing, which is scariest of all!

[soothsayer]

8. I think there are privacy concerns about voter confidentiality and fear of scraping of some sort

It’s a travesty

[Aussie105]

2. Well, we are just going to do a recount

on our own terms, until we get the answer we want.

It makes sense. Sort of.

If they come up with an answer they like, what court will ratify it without questioning the process?

[Rhiannon12866]

4. I know! How many of these are they going to do??

And for how many months - years?? Five months since the election - and counting...

[CrispyQ]

9. Setting precedent for future elections? Confident the "high road" dems would never do the same? -nt

[SheltieLover]

5. Same way they approach legal actions

They cannot stand that Joe is fixing the country. People are being vaccinated, signing up for health insurance for Obamacare at record rates, & I'm guessung Dems have reverses the previous moron's cuts to food stamps.

How terrible!

6. FAKE RECOUNT for DELUSIONAL Trump Republicans

Call it what it is.

7. Major rebranding for stop the steal

To Start The Steal...

[Rebl2]

10. Can the

Democratic Party sue? Of course it will change the votes to favor trump.

[Ohioboy]

11. Sounds the election version of Benghazi...

just keep going over and over it expecting a different result.

[Ohioboy]

12. How is it that ballots can be turned over to anyone wanting to recount them?

And the people wanting to recount them don't have to follow rules? What the hell?

[bluestarone]

13. OK if this is allowed to take place in Arizona, Then why the fuck

Can't it happen in Florida, Texas, Arkansas and OTHER RETHUGLICON states? If it can Let's DO IT!
