Then, after all of this, Trump tweets that the state, not the county, didn't certify the results that had just been certified.
Just to put a fine point on it, there is no serious reason to think that Trump was even close in Michigan. The campaign's attempt to gin up controversy was patently hollow. And Wayne County wasn't even the problem point for Trump in the state! washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…

The vote for President Trump was 'so overwhelming' that it 'broke the algortihm' that had been programmed, we are told by ... Michael Flynn's attorney. This was a function of 'communist money.'
Totally bonkers and nonsensical.
As I was typing this, Soros was looped in.
If your goal is to present a believable case for how the election results are suspect, you should not have Sidney Powell offering up theories that would make Alex Jones be like "maybe dial it back".
Show me actual evidence that there was enough fraud to swing the results in even one state — or even *close* to swinging the results — and I'll take this seriously.
That's all I ask.
Just to clarify:
• Not having as many observers as you want as votes are counted is not fraud.
• Unsubstantiated and unquantified accusations are not proof of fraud. Neither are debunked ones.
Oh, yes, I meant to add that sworn affidavits that don't actually show any fraud are also not germane to my point.
For the next two minutes, if you reply to this with the name of a state I will tell you if it has too many, too few or just the right number of counties.

I'm going to keep reiterating this graphic over and over and over until it's not constantly displaying new peaks in daily new cases. washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
Yeah, it is a real mystery why anyone would prefer a system of developing immunity which doesn’t pose a significant risk of health problems or death to one that does.
Biden didn't "take the lead" and saying he "took the lead" bolsters Trump's false claims about something sketchy happening. washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
Here's how the "lead" in Pennsylvania looks depending if you count from best-to-worst counties for Trump or best-to-worst for Biden. It's all artificial! Both land in the same place. washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
How polished a professional am I? In a hit for a TV program in India, I gave up my default example of relaying football scores as an analogy for counting votes and used cricket instead.
Biden having the lead in Pennsylvania was obvious two days ago but the counting had to catch up.
That's not a joke. It was obvious. The votes weren't there for Trump. Here's me at 9 a.m. on Wednesday. washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
Also, Biden didn't actually "take the lead." These votes were always cast. Assuming nothing wild happens, Biden led the whole time. It just looked like he didn't because of the order in which the votes were counted.
