This is going to be interesting

Reading the reports I'm fascinated as to how Dr Jill Stein of the US Green Party is going to get anything other than a biased outcome from her request for recounts in Michigan and Pennsylvania. The Republicans are hardly likely to do anything to aid her request other than hamper her legitimate efforts to have the voting confirmed one way or the other.
We've already seen the FBI interfering in the election process by throwing Hilary Clinton's emails into the fire just before polling and Donald Trump will be mustering all the firepower he can bring down on Dr Stein just in case. Having said, before 8 November, that the election was rigged it now seems he's probably right. Though now it appears to be all fair and above board.
Over to Brexit in the UK. Any suggestion that there might be a second referendum is met with gallons of vitriol by those who backed Brexit. Perhaps they don't want to find out that there were 'statistical anomalies' here as well. Mr Farage, who claims credit for screwing up the country along with the former Prime Minister, seems to think everything was fair.
Nothing changes like opinions. Everything is unfair, biased, rigged etc unless you're on the winning side.
