Less optimistic than your ideas, though. Mostly thinking that if they do have some solid evidence to that extent, that they are worried that fallout that come from it would do more harm in the long run. It would have a huge effect on how people view our entire system. Even more than it has affected it so far. Then there are also the Cult of Trump people who are likely heavily armed and batshit insane. Such turmoil would benefit our adversaries greatly. A couple months ago I asked on here where do we go even if we had such evidence. What course of action could we take that wouldn't do great harm to the country?

Who knows? It would make for an interesting TV show if we didn't have live in it. I hope things are not as screwed up as they appear, and that Trump is just a shitty president who will lose most of his power to cause harm sooner than later. Then in two years we'll kick out most the conservatives, and in four years we'll hopefully have a good candidate who will become president and fix what damage Trump & Friends have caused.
