[live love laugh]

1. If they stop Biden wins so....

[TruckFump]

5. So let's agree...stop the count where it is.

Biden's ahead and that works for me.

[NurseJackie]

25. Hey Trump, FUCK YOU! (Keep Counting!)

[Beringia]

2. Cheaters trying to use the law, what connivers

[SlogginThroughIt]

3. What is his game here. It doesn't make much sense.

Biden is ahead. I don't get it.

[regnaD kciN]

4. If they stop the count NOW, doesn't Biden win...?

Or is Cheetolini calling on them to throw out valid ballots that have already been counted?

[Blue_true]

10. My guess is they try to throw out ballots back to when Trump led.

That is a very anti-democracy group of people. They really don’t care about counting legal votes that don’t help them.

[WyattKansas]

12. tRUMP Logic:

I was ahead for 3 quarters, so the 4th quarter shouldn't count.

[Blue_true]

16. I believe they have a right to be present IF there is a re-count.

They have no right to be present when election workers are finishing the regular count of ballots. Maybe they could have a lawyer or two present, but that is it.

[Blue_true]

20. "Judge, if the game had been stopped after the third quarter, those three

touchdowns that were scored against us wouldn’t have happened. So we are asking that the three touchdowns they scored in the fourth quarter to beat us be removed”. Or something like that.

23. Are you talking about the election? Or the Detroit Lions?

Either way, same sentiment.

[Chicago1980]

6. Hilarious!

And yet he wants a recount in Wisconsin.

[Soxfan58]

7. Biden ahead?

[Statistical]

15. They want to halt not end the counts

they claim they aren't able to review that everything is being done fairly.

8. Here you go: They want access

“President Trump’s campaign has not been provided with meaningful access to numerous counting locations to observe the opening of ballots and the counting process, as guaranteed by Michigan law. We have filed suit today in the Michigan Court of Claims to halt counting until meaningful access has been granted. 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.”

[Blue_true]

11. I seriously doubt that both campaigns didn't have legal observers

present during the counting. What Trump wants is for proud boys types or bro-nazis, that are going to cause strife and threaten violence, to be in the room.

[unblock]

13. "meaningful" access? that suggests they've been given access they're calling meaningless.

i'm not sure what that would be.

maybe they're saying you can come and observe but you have to wear masks, and they're calling that meaningless?

[exboyfil]

21. Republican party members

who are generally decent and have witnessed the counts for years probably.

[BComplex]

17. The governor needs to call the national guard to escort trump's people to the

"numerous counting locations", and they should be supervised while they "review those ballots which were opened and counted".

Trump wants to make sure all the legal votes were counted EXCEPT for the ones his Post Office buddy shut away in back rooms.

[Roland99]

9. Specious claim

campaign has not been provided with meaningful access to numerous counting locations to observe the opening of ballots and the counting process, as guaranteed by Michigan law.

[lindysalsagal]

14. I'm sure he thinks he'll find enough hanging chads to cancel thousands of Biden votes.

He actually can't imagine losing. In his mind, it's not possible. That's what narcissists are.

[Cheezoholic]

18. The election commision probably wouldn't let the Michigan Militia watch n/t

[world wide wally]

19. They are math deniers

[Thomas Hurt]

22. Your Honor, the GoP cheated in 2016 and tried this time but Biden is ahead...

we demand more access to find out why our cheating didn't work this time. We want access to see if we can find some technicality to accuse the Democrats of cheating.

Or some similar bullshit argument.

[marked50]

24. They may be going after Sen. Peters.

He is still slightly behind James.
