And he was doing what shes doing right now. >> lets be clear now. what we were concerned what donald trump might do is refuse to accept the results, and challenge them not the way jill stein is doing within the boundaries of the law and within a time and process set out, but by simply refusing to accept the results and inciting his supporters around the country -- >> but he got 306 electoral votes. you need 270. so he won, hes going to be the president of the united states. so this whole notion ...

Fund-raising. when were they going to go forward and hit all three states. six or $7 million. what do you make of this report coming from the wisconsin elections commission? >> not too surprising because i believe there is a deadline today if i have that right to really get moving with this recount. look, i mean the first 24 hours, she raised $2 million to get this effort under way. one thing that if there is anything we learned about this election cycle is that this was the most divicive electi...

And there is enough states that passed that law now that equal about 178 electors. they need 270 in order for it to actually work. so we need to be taking all avenues here. trump must be stopped. and if its a legal challenge, if its an electoral college challenge, or if its just the fact that right now people are watching this, there are literally hundreds and hundreds of rapid response teams of citizens being formed in every city, village, and town across america. people are coming out, getting...

California which is a solidly blue state. >> to be clear if credible evidence comes forward at theres been some cyber russian hacking, cyber tampering, that should be looked into. lets not sweep any of this under the rug. but, big picture, if this is a case where we have buyers remorse as a nation a few weeks later because clinton upon the popular vote but donald trump won the electoral college vote yeah, i would be the first one to say the electoral college has outlived its usefulness but those...

0.2% between the two candidates. and hillarys count keeps and it really is -- i think its down to 9,000 votes now, or roughly, if two people who voted for trump had voted for hillary per precinct, hillary would have won michigan by now. we wouldnt even be having this count. recounts. electoral college. we need to challenge the conscience of the electors. this needs to be said. yes, the elites dont like it being said. you dont see many people on tv i think there is a whole host of things here tha...

President-elect? >> no, no. im saying that donald trump got to 270, exceeded that threshold, and by our current system, he is the president-elect. that is legitimate. assuming no credible allegations of voter fraud arise. but prospectively as we think about the system, its a legitimate conversation for us to have about the electoral college and its continues relevance. but thats going to be a bipartisan conversation, and theres no way to actually overturn it without blue states and red states, s...

I know you have been digging into this. is there anything tangible in these claims? >> so on the surface there does seem to be something. let me kind walk you through where our map is. so, you know, as donald trump according to nbcs count has 290 electoral votes. we still havent called michigan nor new hampshire but interedon trump over the 270 electoral votes you need to win the presidency. you end up seeing right now he has about 13,000 vote lead over hillary clinton. you go into pennsylvania,...

If she underperformed in a place like minnesota, it also makes sense on how she underperformed in the michigans, the wisconsin and the pennsylvanias as well. >> the experts have urged the clinton campaign to challenge the result. obviously the clinton campaign thought something was there that could change this election. would they pursue it? >> yeah, and even if you end up buying this, that meanins she h to run the table in wisconsin and pennsylvania to get over 270. were not really talking abou...

It was exactly two weeks ago today that hillary clinton conceded to donald trump. he blew past 270 electoral votes and he will be the next president, but it is taking a long time to get every vote that was cast on election day counted. as they have been counted, something interesting have been happening. the issue here, california. the biggest state in the country. nearly two million ballots have not been counted in california. we know hillary clinton is winning california by a 2-1 margin. most ...

Cant cover me this way, cover me this way, and thats not who we are. and he has been brilliant -- >> hold on. i dont think he was yelling yesterday. if anybody has reporting in the contrary, and it was a tone -- >> is david ignatius still with us? >> i would say right now, i would never do that in a billion years, and it was the most one-sided skewed coverage where you had people writing front page stories tweeting 20 tweets a day attacking donald trump. there has to be it going the other way as...
