Checking in
The Trump campaign said it is dropping a lawsuit in Michigan, after two Republican canvassers in Wayne county briefly declined to certify the county’s election results.
Rudy Giuliani, the president’s personal lawyer, said in a statement, “This morning we are withdrawing our lawsuit in Michigan as a direct result of achieving the relief we sought: to stop the election in Wayne County from being prematurely certified before residents can be assured that every legal vote has been counted and every illegal vote has not been counted.”
But, oops, the two Republicans stopped refusing, in response to pressure from an outraged public. Then they tried to go back to refusing but it was too late, the state board already has the certification.
One of the Republican canvassers in Wayne county confirmed that Donald Trump called her shortly after she and a colleague tried to block the county’s certification process.
“I did receive a call from President Trump, late Tuesday evening, after the meeting,” Monica Palmer told the Washington Post. “He was checking in to make sure I was safe after hearing the threats and doxing that had occurred.”
Yeah sure, that’s why he was checking in. He’s known for being caring and concerned that way.
