Our republic’s founders set up several levels of safeguards, or what they thought might be safeguards, to protect against the stealing of a presidential election. Elections run by the several sovereign states (spreading out the risk of a single person party or group being able to rig an election), electoral college, state legislatures vested with power to select the electors in event of election fraud, congress with substantial say- so in disputed election situations, and yes the courts ( at least since they seized the power over the elected branches of government). So far, however, none of the protections, safeguards seem to be working. Our elections are now rigged like those in Banaba Republics, idle mic and communist countries, and the old Soviet Union. As Benjamin Franklin said, our founders gave us a republic so long as we can keep it. And as Stalin said, voters don’t decide elections, the vote- counters do.

1.) Currently the Progressives more closely resemble the old Communist hierarchy than a traditional American political establishment. Nearly all the decisions are made at the federal level, then passed down to the agents at the state and local levels. As such, there's no one on the Democrat side looking out for the welfare of their constituents...it's all about what's best for the Party.

3.) Antonin Scalia tried pushing back against the Left, particularly the Obama regime. Look what happened to him. The message was clear. Since the Progressives control all levels of the Federal Government bureacracy, especially law enforcement, justices better fall in line.
Otherwise...
