“So much time and money will be spent – same result! Sad,” Trump tweeted, posting part of Clinton’s speech telling her supporters to accept that “Donald Trump is going to be our president”.

Kellyanne Conway, a senior Trump adviser, also called Clinton’s decision to join a recount effort “incredible”.
