How ridiculous are Donald Trump’s claims that he would have won the popular vote if “millions” of people hadn’t voted illegally? So much so that even over at Fox News they’re making fun of the President-elect.
Last night on her show, Megyn Kelly took Trump spokesperson Katrina Pierson to task for this patently absurd claim:
“Mr. Trump is not questioning the legitimacy of the election. He’s questioning the popular vote.”
That means he’s questioning the legitimacy of the vote, you incompetent fool! As Kelly rightly pointed out:
“He should stick to the facts, though. Why isn’t it enough for him that he won the electoral college? Why does he have to make up information that he also won the popular vote, which he lost.”
Pierson began babbling about “government corruption” and “the media” so Kelly turned to fellow guest and Democratic strategist Mo Elleithee, who noted:
“By saying that there were millions of illegal votes, that questions the sanctity of our entire electoral process.”
If it doesn’t, I sure as hell don’t know what does. But Pierson could not resist saying:
“Well, it’s an insult to the people who work in these counties who see [voter fraud] every election cycle.”
Kelly had the last word by reminding the perpetually clueless Pierson:
“You can’t have it both ways.”
Here’s an idea: If Donald Trump believes there was so much fraud in the election, why doesn’t he fork over the money needed for a recount of every state? Then we can get a fair and accurate count. Might it be because he knows he might have lost? Or is he merely saying and doing whatever Vladimir Putin tells him to?
