Trump’s lawyers filed a suit in the MI Appeals court to stop the recount. This was after the deadlock in the Canvassing board (2 rep+2 dem). MI AG filed this morning to block the recount and asked that it be sent to the MI Supreme Court to expedite.

This shit is getting crazy.
Hopefully the SC in Michigan will shut it down.
But don’t hold your breath.
Pennsylvania will end all of this Monday. No way they order a recount there.

PA will continue. 22,000 votes show up in a day. Now its 0.08% away from auto recount. U think HRC this close won’t manuf another 0.03% to get to that 0.05%. Of course they will. Gore had a tough time finding a 1,000 in FL; these criminals will find the 71,000 in PA and claim it.

I hope you’re right, Rooster Cogburn. I know the Rats are not all-powerful, but they they are extremely evil and conniving. I would love for all of this to get smacked down on Monday.

How is it that a Free Press is blocked?

Besides... he’s gonna win his recounts anyway. Nothing much is changing in Wisconsin.

Philly is known for voter integrity. "What's this?", You say?

But don’t hold your breath.

I heard a lot of positive things at the Mt. Pleasant MI, GOP monthly meeting last night.

Now, Trump has come into play. Should be interesting.

My area is not part of the "old guard" in the MI party. These guys and ladies aren't going to let this go, IMO.

The new plan is to get it below 30,000 so they get an auto recount. This thing is crooked as ever. It’s unbelievable that they are being allowed to do this

Where did these votes come from? In the articles I can find, there's no explanation for the discrepancy.

If there was a mistake in the original count, I think the errors should be called out. Because if it all came from a handful of locations, an investigation is in order.

She will flip it if they get a full recount. I would not be surprised to see tens of thousands of newly discovered ballots just waiting to be added in Philly and Pittsburgh.

Let’s pray that doesn’t happen then. Trump is the right man and the rightful President-Elect of the United States. This fight continues!

“these criminals will find the 71,000 in PA and claim it.”

If that happens, the country will splinter, at the very least.

We won’t splinter. If Hillary pulls this off, the GOPe will be the first in line to pledge cooperation and fidelity to Hllary after a divisive contest...no doubt led by McLame and Grahmnesty.

It doesn't matter what the GOPe does. The populace will splinter. The resentment and anger will be incredibly deep, and it will have significant consequences.

Mostly verified provisional ballots and absentees from Philly that were not counted in election night tallies. Folks says these are all legit votes. Hildebeast actually gained 30K on Trump in Philly, but Trump gained something like 8K more votes statewide on the Hildebeast statewide outside Philly from his own verified provisional ballots and absentees to cut the damage to 22K votes shaved off his original lead.

Decision Desk HQ has his current lead in PA at 47,000+ with Washington County and some rural counties still waiting to finish their counts and certify their result. The remaining counties, including Washington went for Trump, so if the 47K figure for Decision Desk is accurate for final country results Trump should get near or possibly past 50K vote lead for the final, certified victory. All the large Rat counties have finished counting and have no more to count.
