Despite pushing Trump's "Big Lie," the Michigan GOP is defending its candidates who submitted fake petition signatures.
Trump practically made a career on spreading lies about widespread voter fraud in 2020. Now a recent Michigan signature scandal proves Republicans are the fraudsters.
The legal action follows a series of 2-2 deadlocks at the Michigan Board of State Canvassers Thursday, disqualifying five GOP candidates for governor.
