A. Clinton's campaign supports the recount even though they have categorically denied any reason for a recount.

B. Stein filed on the last day, in the last hour and half before the deadline. Factually that's "waiting until the last minute".

C. If fraud is found, it will have to be proved to be significant enough to change the election. I agree that would cause the Electoral votes to be invalidated, which is why I laid out that scenario in my original post.

D. I agree the recount is following a legal and constitutional process. Exactly as I laid out. My issue is with the puppeteering that drove the request for recount. A request made by a candidate that won only 2% of the vote, calling for a recount that will not change anything, as stated by the HRC campaign.

I submit that it has everything to do with losing. And posturing for donors, the sake of appearance and the creation of an alternative story line after memories have faded.
