I want Clinton to come out and say she isn't issuing the order for them to get involved, though in truth that wouldn't hold much water anyway.

Clinton campaign already looked into it and didn't find anything.  They are simply backing Stein and saying sure if you find anything we didn't then that's great.

They've flatly stated that they don't expect to find enough votes to turn the three states she would have needed.

On the other hand President Elect Trump now finds the election process very legitimate.

Quote:The news comes after Jill Stein, the Green Party candidate for president, initiated a recount there and pledged to pursue additional ones in Pennsylvania and Michigan. President-elect Donald Trump denounced the recount as "a scam by the Green Party for an election that has already been conceded."

"The results of this election should be respected instead of being challenged and abused, which is exactly what Jill Stein is doing," Trump said in a statement.

Which is a hoot from the guy who said the entire process was rigged against him...until he won.
