Obama urged Clinton to concede on election night

President Barack Obama called Hillary Clinton to persuade her to concede the White House on election night, according to a forthcoming book on Clinton’s defeat.

“You need to concede,” Obama told his former secretary of State as she, her family, and her top aides continued to watch results trickle in from the key Rust Belt states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. The latter state, called after 1:30 a.m. by The Associated Press, was the clear tipping point for the White House race, ensuring Trump would crest over the 270 electoral-vote threshold needed to win.

Clinton ultimately heeded Obama’s advice and called Trump to acknowledge her defeat in the early morning hours Wednesday.

There are fissures opening up in the democrat party, thanks to Trump

But now the Clinton camp is secretly hoping Jill Stein’s efforts to overturn the election will happen, while the Obama camp thinks the multi-state recount effort is going to sink the democrat party, making them look like bitter, hypocritical sore losers. (It was the Clinton camp that haughtily sniffed and asked Trump if he was going to concede after he lost, or was he not going to go into that good night without an embarrassing non-concession.)

What is sticking in the craw of the loons who will try everything and anything to wrestle this away is Trump. If it was anyone but him this would not be happening.
