Why is Jill Stein taking the lead in instigating a recount?

82. That has been my thinking for the past couple of weeks

The Republican's are masters of projection. Every "terrible" thing they say Democratic candidates, and Democrats in general, do are the very things they themselves are doing — racism, sexual assault, child molestation, deleting email evidence, gaming welfare, etc.

So at the third debate, Trump says the whole thing is rigged and he may not accept the election results. Clinton says that's horrifying (I think that was the word). Democrats (and other normal, reasonable human beings) are outraged, of course, that a candidate would say such a thing. Trump ends up "winning" the election. Guess what? We all just said we'd be horrified if the "losing" candidate did not accept the results. If Democrats say anything, KellyAnne's all over the news screaming "SORE LOSER! EMAILS! BAWK-BAWK-BAWK!"

Granted, I don't want to accept the "results" of this election. Clinton won. By 2,000,000 votes and counting.

So if a third-party candidate, or someone other than Hillary Clinton herself, demands examinations and recounts, good.
