New legal filing asks court to allow trump campaign to count PA mail in ballots. Not the Onion.

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/11/new-legal-filing-asks-court-to-allow-trump-campaign-to-count-pennsylvanias-mail-in-ballots/

President Donald J. Trump’s presidential campaign has issued a new legal filing asking the court to allow them to personally count the mail-in ballots in Pennsylvania.

“Due to confusion caused by the withdrawal of Plaintiffs’ lead counsel on Friday, Nov. 13, the Amended Complaint filed on Nov. 15 inadvertently withdrew numerous allegations contained in the original Complaint regarding the preclusion of observers at the canvassing of mail votes and the subsequent improper counting of mail votes in the seven Defendant County Boards of Election,” the court document states.


I don't even know how to react to this other than WHAT THE FUCK?!!!!!
