Jill Stein slams Trump's 'Happy New Year' tweet

On Saturday, Donald Trump posted a tweet, "Happy New Year to all, including to my many enemies and those who have fought me and lost so badly they just don't know what to do. Love!"

It drew strong reactions from many including Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein who posted a series of her own tweets – "Hey, @realDonaldTrump: Calling yourself a winner involves winning the popular vote and running profitable casinos...Time for some humble pie," and "It takes a special kind of person to lose the popular vote and boast about it..."

Stein also referred to the recount effort she spearheaded in several states, tweeting, "If you're so confident about your election result, why were you and your crony lawyers scrambling to block Recount 2016?"

Others offered suggestions to Trump, including, "You could've just said 'Happy New Year.' Or nothing. Sometimes nothing is good too."
