trump claims a mandate or he can t most presidents can say they won more votes than the other person. he can t say that. it s an important fact in terms of his popular mandate. two things that he has done today, one, allowed these recounts to get under his skin when they re not going to change the outcome and, two, made this false accusation that millions of people voted illegally. i just find it mystifying, especially when he has so much else to worry about in assembling a government. andre, do you agree with ryan s point, that he shouldn t allow this to get under his skin? i think what you see is not a guy that s mad, a guy that s passionate. a guy that went out and did what he he seemed mad to me, andre. he didn t seem too happy about this, andre. look at all his tweets overnight and today. clearly, this is getting under his skin. you saw a guy that almost 2-1 did as many rallies and public
