He also held up her concession speech in which she accepted losing

She'd called his suggestion to call a recount if he lost election 'horrifying'

In a twitter rant he repeated remarks she made before the election

Donald Trump launched into a furious Twitter rant Sunday morning, calling Hillary Clinton a hypocrite for joining Jill Stein's call for recounts in three key election states.

Clinton's team said on Saturday that it would be part of a recount initiated by Stein in Wisconsin, and would support recounts in Michigan and Pennsylvania.

Trump responded Sunday morning with a six-tweet-long screed in which he held up Clinton quotes from before and after the election, in which she called his own similar remarks about election recounts 'horrifying.'

Clinton has backed Green Party candidate Stein's movement to recount Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania votes after experts said they could have been hacked

At around 7am EST Sunday, Trump Tweeted that 'nothing will change'. He then began a six-tweet-long screed in which he quoted Clinton's own remarks before and after the election

At around 7am EST, Trump tweeted: 'Hillary Clinton conceded the election when she called me just prior to the victory speech and after the results were in. Nothing will change.'

Then, an hour later, came the six-tweet message in which he initially quoted Clinton's remarks from the third presidential debate.

'Hillary's debate answer on delay: "That is horrifying. That is not the way our democracy works. Been around for 240 years. We've had free and fair elections.

'"We've accepted the outcomes when we may not have liked them, and that is what must be expected of anyone standing on - a during a general election.

'"I, for one, am appalled that somebody that is the nominee of one of our two major parties would take that kind of position."'

Trump then paraphrased a remark she made in a rally speech after the debate.

'Then, separately she stated, "He said something truly horrifying ... he refused to say that he would respect the results of this election. That is a direct threat to our democracy."'

Finally, he quoted from her acceptance speech after losing the Electoral College vote.

'She then said, "We have to accept the results and look to the future, Donald Trump is going to be our President. We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead."

'So much time and money will be spent - same result!' he concluded. 'Sad.'

Trump implied that Clinton was a hypocrite - though the complaints against him were about writing off the results before they were called, not calling for a recount after they came in

Trump's take on Clinton's criticism of his pre-election remarks does leave out a little detail.

Criticism of Trump's calls for a recount were specifically about him challenging the results of the election before it had even taken place, due to what he said was 'rigging' of the polls.

In a rally in Delaware, Ohio, on October 20, he said he would 'promise and pledge ... to all of my voters and supporters, and all of the people of the United States, that I will totally accept the results of this great and historic presidential election - if I win.'

That comment, and others like it, dismissed the possibility of a fair Clinton win, and implied that he would challenge the election's results even if it was not a close call or there was no sign of rigging.

The challenge by Stein - and now Clinton - comes post-election, and after experts have suggested that results in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania may have been altered by hackers to ensure Clinton lost.

After receiving criticism before the election, Trump amended his remarks to be more vague.

When asked point-blank if he would respect the election decision in the final debate said he would 'tell you at the time, I'll keep you in suspense.'

It was immediately after that remark that Clinton responded with the 'That is horrifying' comments that Trump tweeted Sunday morning.

The President-elect had previously accused Stein of just trying to 'fill her coffers with money' by initiating the 'ridiculous' ballot recount.

'The people have spoken and the election is over, and as Hillary Clinton herself said on election night, in addition to her conceding by congratulating me, "We must accept this result and then look to the future",' Trump said in the statement obtained by Bloomberg.

'This recount is just a way for Jill Stein, who received less than one percent of the vote overall and wasn't even on the ballot in many states, to fill her coffers with money, most of which she will never even spend on this ridiculous recount.

'All three states were won by large numbers of voters, especially Pennsylvania, which was won by more than 70,000 votes.

'This is a scam by the Green Party for an election that has already been conceded, and the results of this election should be respected instead of being challenged and abused, which is exactly what Jill Stein is doing.'

On Saturday evening, Trump tweeted to his followers about Stein's 'scam' to 'fill up her coffers' adding that she has now been joined by the Democrats

Trump did not attack Clinton in that statement, but later went after the Democrats for joining Stein in her campaign.

On Saturday evening, he tweeted to his followers about Stein's 'scam' to 'fill up her coffers', adding that she had been joined by the Democrats.

'The Green Party scam to fill up their coffers by asking for impossible recounts is now being joined by the badly defeated & demoralized Dems,' he wrote.

Later he tweeted again about the Democrats, saying they pushed him to accept the election results but that was 'not so anymore'.

'The Democrats, when they incorrectly thought they were going to win, asked that the election night tabulation be accepted. Not so anymore!' he tweeted.

His aide Kellyanne Conway also said the Democrat's campaign couldn't 'accept reality'.

'What a pack of sore losers,' Conway said. 'After asking Mr Trump and his team a million times on the trail, "Will HE accept the election results?" it turns out Team Hillary and their new BFF Jill Stein can't accept reality.

'Rather than adhere to the tradition of graciously conceding and wishing the winner well, they’ve opted to waste millions of dollars and dismiss the democratic process. The people have spoken. Time to listen up.'

Trump's newly-appointed general counsel Don McGahn has already been briefed for a legal battle in regards to the Wisconsin recount, Bloomberg reports.

It comes after Marc Elias, Clinton's campaign's general counsel, wrote in a statement they had quietly taken a number of steps in the last two weeks amid calls for an audit and recount.

He said while the campaign had not planned to initiate a recount, they intend to participate given one will go ahead in Wisconsin.

The campaign received hundreds of messages in recent days urging them to investigate claims the election results were hacked, particularly in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

'Because we had not uncovered any actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology, we had not planned to exercise this option ourselves, but now that a recount has been initiated in Wisconsin, we intend to participate in order to ensure the process proceeds in a manner that is fair to all sides,' Elias wrote.

'If Jill Stein follows through as she has promised and pursues recounts in Pennsylvania and Michigan, we will take the same approach in those states as well.

'We do so fully aware that the number of votes separating Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in the closest of these states - Michigan - well exceeds the largest margin ever overcome in a recount.'

The Wisconsin Elections Commission announced its plan to begin recounting votes next week in a statement issued on Friday

Wisconsin announced its plan to start recounting ballots after Stein filed for a recount on Friday.

She has raised more than $6million for recounts in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania amid claims the election result has been tampered with.

She claims voting machines used in some states were susceptible to cyber attack and therefore cannot be trusted.

Elias wrote that the campaign had consulted with experts to investigate any irregularities or to see if there is anything to suggest a hack.

'The campaign is grateful to all those who have expended time and effort to investigate various claims of abnormalities and irregularities,' Elias wrote.

'While that effort has not, in our view, resulted in evidence of manipulation of results, now that a recount is underway, we believe we have an obligation to the more than 64 million Americans who cast ballots for Hillary Clinton to participate in ongoing proceedings to ensure that an accurate vote count will be reported.'

A recount in Wisconsin will do little for Stein's own chances in the state given she only won one percent of the vote compared to Donald Trump's 47 and Hillary Clinton's 46.

An Obama administration said on Friday it stood by the election results as recount proceedings began in Wisconsin.

'We stand behind our election results, which accurately reflect the will of the American people,' an official told Politico.

'The federal government did not observe any increased level of malicious cyber activity aimed at disrupting our electoral process on election day,' the official added. 'We believe our elections were free and fair from a cybersecurity perspective.'

In a statement on Friday, the Wisconsin Elections Commission said it would begin recounting once it received full payment from Stein's campaign.

' The Wisconsin Elections Commission today received two recount petitions from the Jill Stein for President Campaign and from Rocky Roque De La Fuente.

'The Commission is preparing to move forward with a statewide recount of votes for President of the United States, as requested by these candidates,' Administrator Michael Haas said.

De La Fuente trailed behind Stein in Wisconsin, winning just 0.1 percent of the vote.

Clinton, however, lost by just one percent, some 27,000 votes. According to experts who have cast doubt over the election results, hackers could have cost her as many as 30,000 by tapping in to apparently vulnerable machines.

The recount will include paper ballots in addition to electronic votes, the commission said.

While a recount would do little to help Stein, analysts claim it could prove Clinton was robbed of thousands of votes by hackers and theoretically put her back in play for the presidency

The computer experts used a statistical analysis to conclude Clinton did worse in states with electronic voting machines - which they argue could have left the door open to hacking

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? Wisconsin Wisconsin is the first state to respond to calls for a recount because it is so far the only state to have received an official petition demanding one. It has until December 13 to complete the recount of all its votes and return its findings, so long as Stein's campaign stumps up the required fee. As of Friday afternoon, the total cost was still unclear - administrators at the Elections Commission said they were working to determine an estimate. Wisconsin has 72 counties. Clerks from each are responsible with carrying out the recount while the Elections Commission's role is to make sure it is performed lawfully. If candidates disagree with the recount result, they will have five days from when it is returned to take their grievance to the circuit court before a judge. Pennsylvania In Pennsylvania, voters or candidates can petition courts for a recount of the vote. A judge is required to make a decision on whether one should go ahead. If granted, county boards are tasked with performing the recount. Michigan Unlike in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, the election winner in Michigan can object to a recount. Stein cannot request a recount until the vote in Michigan is certified, something that is not due to happen until Monday. Its deadline for a recount petition is Wednesday. If a recount is granted by the director of elections for Secretary of State, clerks have until December 19 to complete it when Michigan's electoral college meets. Could a recount overturn the election result? It is unlikely. Donald Trump won with 290 electoral votes over Hillary Clinton's 232. Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Michigan account for 46 electoral college votes. If recounts show, as analysts say is possible, that Clinton should have won all three, she would technically win the Electoral College. Clinton has shied away from talk of ballot recounts, staying quiet on the subject while Stein pushes on. It would be up to the sitting president to respond to any election recount results.

Wisconsin is the first of the three targeted battleground states to respond to her calls for a recount.

Stein filed her petition with seconds to spare before the window for demanding recounts closed on November 25.

Unlike in Wisconsin, which the Elections Commission described as the 'most decentralized system' in the country, Pennsylvania requires a judge's consent.

Michigan allows the winning candidate to object to a recount before putting the matter before the Board of Elections.

Pennsylvania has until November 28 to receive petitions for recounts while Michigan's deadline is November 30.

The Wisconsin recount must be completed by December 13 to comply with regulations.

State election boards and county clerks keep record of ballots, including electronic voting machines, after an election.

One possible explanation for why a recount could show a different result is that hackers could have planted self-destructing malware before the election which was designed to tamper with results on November 8 but would no longer be traced.

Recounts in all three states could cost as much as $7million, Stein said in her website appeal to donors.

It was however needed to 'ensure that "We the People" can have confidence in reported results,' she said.

'To give you a sense of the problem, the voting machines used in Wisconsin were banned in California after they were shown to be highly vulnerable to hacking and malicious programming due to lacking security features,' she said in her fundraising appeal.

Clinton lost the Wisconsin vote to Trump by 1 per cent, roughly 27,000 votes, but analysts say she may have been robbed of as many as 30,000 by hackers targeting electronic voting machines

Trump took the lead over Clinton by more than 1 per cent in Pennsylvania, which has 20 electoral college votes

In Michigan, Clinton fell behind by just 0.3 per cent in one of the tightest races

JILL STEIN AND THE GREEN PARTY FORM FOR DEMANDING RECOUNTS Critics have accused Stein of 'conning' donors out of money This is not the first time a defeated Green Party candidate has demanded a recount in a presidential election. In 2004, David Cobb raised $150,000 to have the result challenged in Ohio amid wild claims officials had spoiled votes for John Kerry, pushing George W Bush into the White House. The recount did nothing to sway the outcome. It showed Kerry had in fact received some 300 more votes than first counted - not enough to change the result, according toThe Chicago Tribune. Questions surrounding Jill Stein's motives for a recount have grown since her efforts were announced. On Friday, she appeared in a Facebook Live video to insist her intention was not to overturn the result but to shed light on the voting system and its apparent vulnerabilities. 'We have raised at this point over $5million, the total cost will be $7million,' she said. 'We are well on our way to that. This is a real grass roots, people's campaign. 'The purpose here is not to overturn the results of the election, the purpose is to establish voting integrity, to verify our votes and to ensure we can, going forward, ensure we can count on the accuracy and veracity of our votes. 'We need to know that the system has not been tampered with or compromised.' Critics were quick to accuse her of 'conning' voters out of money, pointing to the fact that a recount is not necessarily guaranteed despite their donations. Stein ran for the presidency in 2012 for the Green Party. She has an MD from Harvard Medical School. Despite several efforts to run for president, governor and a house representative, Stein has only ever been elected to the Lexington Town Meeting in Massachusetts. Advertisement

She later took to Facebook Live to celebrate the pace her campaign had gathered but admitted she had intention of overturning the election result.

' We have raised at this point over $5million, the total cost will be $7million,' she said.

'We are well on our way to that. This is a real grass roots, people's campaign.

'The purpose here is not to overturn the results of the election, the purpose is to establish voting integrity, to verify our votes and to ensure we can, going forward, ensure we can count on the accuracy and veracity of our votes.

'We need to know that the system has not been tampered with or compromised.'

Calls for a recount collected momentum after a variety of independent analysts and data groups aired the possibility that voting machines in key states may have been hacked.

Some, whose claims were published in New York Magazine, said Clinton's performance in counties using electronic machines was drastically worse than in paper ballot zones and used this as cause for speculation of tampering.

Their calculations say a hack could have robbed her of 30,000 votes in Wisconsin where she officially lost to Trump by 27,000.

There is evidence she may have fallen victim to hackers in Pennsylvania and Michigan too, the magazine reported.

One of the quoted researchers later penned his own article for Medium to 'set the record straight'.

'The only way to know whether a cyberattack changed the result is to closely examine the available physical evidence - paper ballots and voting equipment in critical states like Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania,' said J Alex Halderman.

Halderman is the director of the University of Michigan Center for Computer Security and Society.
