Complete headline: Trump invites Michigan Republican leaders to meet him at White House as he escalates attempts to overturn election results

Trumps campaign has suffered defeats in courtrooms across the country in its efforts to allege irregularities with the ballot-counting process, and has failed to muster any evidence of the widespread fraud that the president continues to claim tainted the 2020 election.
Trump lost Michigan by a wide margin: At present, he trails President-Elect Joe Biden in the state by 157,000 votes. Earlier this week, the states Republican Senate majority leader said an effort to have legislators throw out election results was not going to happen.
