Donald Trump seems strangely in the dark about the process of counting votes ... or at least he’s pretending to be.
Trump has been lamenting that he had big leads in an array of states as the polls initially closed in them but that his margins disappeared as more and more votes ― especially those cast by mail ― were tallied.
