So, Just What If?

I don't have ANY faith that this recount or audit will change a thing. Nonetheless, just out of PURE curiosity, WHAT would happen should widespread fraud be found? How would it be handled, and who would do it?

1. I think we're living through our democracy unraveling. The system relied on a lot of trust

and credibility, not that participants wanted to bring down the nation. And, there was no concept of outside hackers, cheats and the like.

2. Donald would lose his shit and try to find a way to make it stop

But it would never stop. Ever.

3. We would have a full scale Constitutional crisis and perhaps civil war

Complete chaos, possibly the military being involved in a coup and over 200 years of democracy in shambles. It would, to maintain our republic with any sense of its traditions, require at least a constitutional convention to prevent it from ever happening again.
