Baseless lawsuits essentially say 'Black people are corrupt'

Dave Boucher
Detroit Free Press

Michigan's top law enforcement officer blasted the legal efforts of .. Donald .. on Wednesday, saying they include no evidence of misconduct, unfairly attack Black voters and workers in Detroit and will not change the outcome of the election.

Attorney General Dana Nessel ... said there is no evidence to support any of the president's claims of election misconduct, or the claims are "demonstrably false."

"Really the themes that we see, that persist, are this: Black people are corrupt, Black people are incompetent and Black people can’t be trusted. That’s the narrative that is continually espoused by the Trump campaign and their allies in these lawsuits" ...

She argued that if she tried to file a lawsuit with claims that were "this baseless and this frivolous, I would be sanctioned and I would likely be looking at a loss of licensure."
