I think for legal purposes, it is far far better for any issues involving the election be resolved before the January 6 vote by Congress confirming the electors sent by the states. Once that vote is taken, whoever gets those votes will be almost impossible to dislodge by an Constitutional, lawful method. After that date, it would take military intervention, and decrees that have no basis in law or the US Constitution (for example, requiring a new election in the contested states or just declaring President Trump the winner based on evidence that we accept, but the courts and Congress ignored.)

What I hope happens is that information about what really happened is released, the public absorbs it, the conspirators are arrested, some charged with fraud, those who worked with China charged with treason, foreign bad actors are arrested by the military and held in military prisons, and some of those arrested include high-level politicians, businessmen, “journalists”, tech giants, etc. At the same time, control must be exercised over the media so that the word is allowed to get out to the public.

In that atmosphere, with the info out about a Chinese/globalist conspiracy to steal the US presidency and control of a $20 trillion economy, and with some of its members in jail for participating in it, Congress can then take its vote. One would hope they would do the right thing. If they don’t, there is still the military option, but it is not optimal, because it is not legally grounded.

I agree. What you’re saying makes sense. But that scenario can only play out if, as you pointed out, enough of the evidence is reveled to the public by then for people to accept it. If it isn’t then you’ll still have a sizable percentage of the population seeing it as a usurpation of power on the part of Trump and his allies.

Q seems to have implied in the past that it is important to resolve this within the bounds of the Constitution, which adds credence to your argument. Extra-Constitutional remedies are morally justified in extreme circumstances but should be avoided if possible.

The president is sworn to uphold and defend the constitution and to faithfully see the laws executed. ANYTHING he does to insure this under the current circumstances is “lawful”.
