So it now appears likely that the official tally will have Trump losing Michigan by about 70,000 votes. Here is something to think about if you are concerned that Michigan was stolen. 1/

A banker's box of sealed paper can hold about 5,000 sheets. That's while the pages are unprinted, unfolded, and sealed. If you turn those pages into marked ballots, you're gonna lose space, and if they're folded and placed in envelopes, that's even more space. 2/

But let's set all that aside for a minute and just pretend that these ballots, in whatever form Democrats snuck them inside, could somehow take up no more space apiece than each page inside a sealed ream of paper. 3/

What that would mean would be that Democrats had to somehow sneak 14 bankers boxes worth of material inside the polling place. Which is just huge from a volume standpoint and is something any GOP poll watcher would've immediately noticed. 4/

When you factor in that the ballots in question are supposed to be mail in ballots then they would unquestionably have been at the very least folded just so they would pass the laugh test, which means that in reality you're talking probably at least 20 boxes worth of ballots. 5/

I don't wanna rule out hijinks here - you never do - but in order for the amount of hijinks to have actually changed the result in Michigan, it would take a pretty serious and implausible feat. 6/
