Is there any chance the 2016 election results and everything done since then could be nullified?

I find myself feeling hopeless and clinging to what I'm sure is an unrealistic fantasy.

The daily horrors brought on by the Trump Administration and Republicans as a whole are overwhelming.

what is happening now is not either. It will be proven that the 2016 elections were tampered with in favor - GOPs and the EC also.

We are not living in normal times. This is not normal and therefore it changes the aspect of the outcome.

That's my opinion and I feel I'm right.

But these threads will continue to pop up periodically anyway. Proof that hope really does spring eternal.

I wouldn't rule anything out, seriously. But I'd say Brexit recall is the litmus test. If they manage to dodge that bullet, and they might, then I think there's a chance the Apprentice in Chief might get fired. That Wall Street keeps tanking is also a good indicator that he might get canceled before the season ends so to speak. Like his pal Roseanne.

of the Democratic candidate for president. That is not acceptable within a democracy.
