In a last-ditch effort to stop the Trumpocalypse, Green Party presidential nominee Jill Stein announced yesterday that she was raising funds to pay for a recount in three key swing states. Within 10 hours, she had met her goal of $2.5 million, more than likely enough to thoroughly audit the votes and discover whether anyone tampered with the election results. While a happy ending is unlikely here, many people took to Twitter to express their support for such an action in the name of democracy, or at least make a few jokes about the whole situation.
Some people think the mere existence of the #recount2016 movement is a bad sign for Trump.
Some point out the irony that people are finally looking to Jill Stein to save the country.
Maybe Trump was bragging every time he said the election was rigged....
Let's learn from history.
Yet another nasty woman for him to go after.
Besides how offensive this is to rats, I agree with it.
Jill's kickstarter skills are unparallelled.
Some are still mad about her running against Hillary in the first place.
Others were skeptical of where the money was really going....
...or where it was really coming from.
We'll see if anything comes of this latest twist.
