‘We don’t want to have a recount in any battleground states’: Trump’s 2012 tweet comes back to haunt him
Donald Trump has been mocked for a 2012 tweet in which he argued against asking for a recount in the presidential election, warning: “Obama will steal it.”

The president on Wednesday announced that he was seeking a recount in Wisconsin, where only 20,000 votes separated him from Joe Biden, who was declared the victor.

In November 2012, when Mr Obama was seeking a second term, challenged by Mitt Romney, Mr Trump weighed in, urging voters to come out in force and avoid the need for a recount.

“We don’t want to have a recount in any of the battleground states,” he said. “Obama will steal it. Make sure all your friends and family vote.”

The suggestion that a recount could lead to the incumbent president “stealing” an election was seen as deeply ironic.

Note: The Trump campaign said on Wednesday afternoon that they were seeking a recount.

“There have been reports of irregularities in several Wisconsin counties which raise serious doubts about the validity of the results,” Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien said in a statement, without providing details of any reports.

“The president is well within the threshold to request a recount and we will immediately do so.”

recounts should be MANDATORY in any state at any time withing a 1% margin, when all ballots are counted

It was his way or the highway, fate, being Ironic by nature, has put Trump on the curb of his own highway. A cautionary tale.
