Michigan’s top GOP legislators made an appearance at Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., on Friday after attending a meeting at the White House with President Trump that sparked widespread scrutiny. Photos obtained by the Detroit Free Press show Michigan House Speaker Lee Chatfield (R) and other state GOP members gathered inside the hotel on Friday. CNN reported that Chatfield and Michigan Senate Majority Leader Mike Shirkey (R) both stayed Friday night at the hotel, which is located just blocks from the White House, following their meeting with Trump earlier in the day. Images of the GOP legislators were also projected on the outside of the hotel building Friday night, along with the messages “The world is watching” and “voters decided.” It wasn’t clear who was behind the images, according to The New York Times. Trump invited the legislators to visit the White House amid a broad effort by the president and his legal team to challenge Michigan’s election results.
