FLASHBACK: Remember When Hillary Said Not Accepting Election Results Was “Horrifying”? [VIDEO]

Hillary Clinton, now a private citizen after conceding the election to Donald Trump, wants in on the recount effort Green Party nominee Jill Stein launched Friday, even though she previously called such a notion “horrifying.”

During the final debate between Clinton and Donald Trump last month in Las Vegas, Fox News Channel’s Chris Wallace asked Trump if he would honor the results of the election even if he lost.

“I will look at it at the time. I’m not looking at it now. What I’ve seen is so bad,” Trump responded.

Wallace pressed the question further, and Trump replied, “What I’m saying is I will tell you at the time.”

“I’ll keep you in suspense,” Trump said.

Clinton, apparently taken aback by Trump’s response to the matter, hit back “That’s horrifying.”

She went on to say, “That’s not the way our democracy works. We’ve been around 240 years. We’ve had free and fair elections and we’ve accepted the outcomes when we may not have liked them and that is what must be expected of anyone standing on a debate stage during a general election. President Obama said the other day that when you’re whining before the game is even finished it just shows you’re not even up to doing the job. “

She added, “And let’s be clear about what he’s saying and what he means. He’s denigrating—he’s talking down our democracy. I for one am appalled that somebody who is the nominee of one of our major two parties would take that kind of position.”

Clinton was later asked by reporters about Trump’s statement at the debate and she said, “I truly doubt he has ever ready the Constitution.”
