Could the Democratic Party sue trump and all the GOP for defamation and fraud?

For conspiring the promotion of election lies the Democrats stole the election, and to use to enact laws designed to prevent and steal votes from Democrats? Also to force trump under oath to admit his intent was all along to lie and commit fraud to get votes with. If they don't , they just encourage more of this to continue.

We sue, they countersue, discovery goes into sensitive areas like data, contacts, firms, donors, etc - so legal isolation needs to be set up.

And even before all of that, who do you even sue? There are probably hundreds of "gop" entities out there. National, state, county, presidential, congressional, senate, governors, state office holders, feeder org's, pac's, etc.

Each entity would have to be named, and if you go too broadly it becomes ineffective.

And in the end, what does it buy us? I don't know, just asking.
