Guarding Democracy

Regardless of whether Jill Stein’s call for a recount in Wisconsin, probably followed by some other close states, is justified or not, the Trump camp is displaying its immaturity WRT the democratic process in its response:

Former Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway tweeted on Thanksgiving that their opponents were being sore losers.

“Look who ‘can’t accept the election results’ Hillary Clinton Supporters Call for Vote Recount in Battleground States,” Conway wrote.

They should be applauding and encouraging the effort in the name of the people. A citizenry uncertain that its voice is being properly heard is a citizenry that may be so dissatisfied that it’ll rise up and take out those in power. It’s happened before, after all.

A word to the wise: that would be Trump and the GOP.
