Trump Sues to Stop Vote Counting in Michigan

The Trump campaign is filing a lawsuit to force the State of Michigan to stop counting votes.
Trump campaign manager Bill Stepien claims the campaign has not been granted “meaningful access” to ballots.
“We have filed suit today in the Michigan Court of Claims to halt counting until meaningful access has been granted,” Stepien said, according to The Hill. “We also demand to review those ballots which were opened and counted while we did not have meaningful access. President Trump is committed to ensuring that all legal votes are counted in Michigan and everywhere else.”
Trump is actually not interested in all legal votes being counted, as he made clear just past noon in a tweet that Twitter was forced to mask and label as “disputed” and “misleading.”
They are working hard to make up 500,000 vote advantage in Pennsylvania disappear — ASAP. Likewise, Michigan and others!

At this point Michigan is a must-win for Trump, and he is behind in that state.
