We'll never know since fraud is very difficult to detect and because nearly all the evidence was destroyed.
Trump was acceptable only because the alternative was Billary.

Oh, yes we can.
The gutless spineless amoebic Republican Party can throw Trump under the bus and refuse to recognize him as a Republican candidate and refuse to give him campaign money.
If Trump wants to run, he can run on his own dime as an Independent.

Why not?
It would only push the US that much closer to a civil war where the Liberals are crushed forever.

No, it does not, but I expect as much from low-information voters.
The Constitution is silent on the issue of citizenship and you cannot prove otherwise.
Birth-right citizenship is a Left-Wing Liberal concoction. It does not exist.
To understand the meaning of anything in the Constitution, one need only read the meeting minutes of the various committees that drafted sections of the Constitution, and their private diaries and journals, and the letters they wrote to other committee members and to members of the different committees.
To understand the meaning of anything in the Bill of Rights, one need only consult the meeting minutes of the 13 State-level committees, their personal diaries and journals, the letters they wrote to other committee members, and the legislative history in the State legislatures.
To understand the meaning of anything in any Amendment post-Bill of Rights, one need only review the legislative history in the US Congress.
Thus, to understand the 14th Amendment, one need only consult with the Congressional legislative history.
The 14th Amendment bound all of the States to the Due Process Clause in the 5th Amendment.
It
did not bind the States to other clauses in the 5th Amendment, nor did it bind the States to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th, or 8th Amendments.
Only someone totally bereft of intelligence could not conceive the possibility that many would claim that the Due Process Clause did not apply to the newly freed Slaves
because they were not citizens.
Congress contemplated using the phrase "black Slave" (as it appears in the texts) instead of "person" but the issue of members of the 560-odd aboriginal nations came up.
In order to guarantee and ensure that the Due Process Clause of the 5th Amendment applied to everyone, meaning both the newly freed Slaves and members of aboriginal nations in the US, the word "person" was chosen.
It is crystal clear for the meaning, language, and intent of Congress that the 14th Amendment applies only to the newly freed Slaves and members of the various aboriginal nations
and to no others.
To suggest that the 14th Amendment was intended to protect people who violated US laws and illegally immigrated to the US a century later is absurd, baseless, and without merit.
Furthermore, it is a well-established legal doctrine that no one can ever benefit from an illegal act. That is 800 year-old English Common Law repeatedly reinforced by the US Supreme Court.
Accordingly, a person born to illegal immigrants in the US cannot be a US citizen because the parents were not lawfully and legally situated, nor did they have "clean hands" and to allow people to profit or benefit as a result constitutes an absurd result, and the US Supreme Court has repeatedly maintained that no law nor contract nor action can ever be interpreted in such a way as produce an absurd result.
