A candidate can request a recount if all of the following conditions are met:The candidate ran for one of the following offices: president and vice president, state executive (e.g., governor), U.S. Senate, U.S. House, circuit judges, or state senators and state representatives elected from districts that span more than one county The request "alleges that the candidate is aggrieved on account of fraud or mistake in the canvass of the votes" The request "shall contain specific allegations of wrongdoing only if evidence of that wrongdoing is available to the petitioner. If evidence of wrongdoing is not available, the petitioner is only required to allege fraud or a mistake in the petition without further specification." The request "sets forth as nearly as possible the nature and character of the fraud or mistakes alleged and the counties, cities, or townships and the precincts in which they exist." The request "specifies the counties, cities, townships, and precincts in which the recount is requested."

If he breaks the 1% threshold not sure there's a lot Trump can do. Michigan is a bit more complex - According to Ballotpedia The Rules are So , not very easy to get a recount and would look to be almost impossible to get a Statewide recount as you have to specify issues at each county level at a minimum. Biden currently leads in Michigan by 0.7%

A roughly 2/3rds Ratio for Biden would win it and he's been doing better than that in the last few updates.

If Georgia goes the way I urban and the last update of rural votes has gone that is 320k-35k win for Biden too, Trump is getting North Carolina.

Now they are not letting anymore in (dunno how manynif any are in there) and there is a crowd outside demand to be allowed inside, the police are stopping them. Trump now calling for counting to cease until election "monitors" are allowed back inside the hall. Live on sky now.
