Donald Trump summoned two Michigan state legislators to the White House on Friday, as the U.S. president made an extraordinary and sure-to-be futile attempt to block Joe Biden's victory in the battleground state and subvert the results of the 2020 presidential election. Michigan has yet to certify its results for Biden, who won Michigan by more than 154,000 votes, according to unofficial results. White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters that the meeting with Michigan officials was "not an advocacy meeting" and insisted Trump "routinely meets with lawmakers from across the country." But election officials have said there has been no evidence of impropriety or fraud in Michigan. But election officials across the country have said repeatedly there was no widespread fraud.
