The Trump campaign has demanded a second recount from GA.

Apparently they are allowed to request a recount indefinitely until the certification in December as long as the margin is still under .5%, and it's completely taxpayer funded every time.

Don't think this is right. The first recount was not requested by the campaign, but was part of the risk-limiting audit ordered by the secretary of state's office. Per the SOS, the recount that a campaign can request is less extensive and is unlikely to turn up as many changes as the RLA.

I feel like if the recounts come back 100% the same that should end that ability

Trump picked up about 2000 votes net from the first recount/audit. I would expect a much smaller change from a second recount, because it's not going to also be an audit, and everything caught by the audit will already be there.
