The person who should be arrested for treason is Rep Louis Gohmert, who is now calling for a revolution if Trump is not elected. He should also face some consequences for helping to spread false information regarding Dominion and Scytl.

I see no reason to believe that. I'm sure some of our 27 Amendments changed things that some believed would never be changed too.

No, you are missing two other choices.

1) Get the hell out. Try Argentina or Chile.

2) Give it a whirl and go to jail. Wave hello to the F.B.I.

Agreed, 100%. Censure - I guess - would be the only consequence?

I actually think that the different systems make it more difficult for our elections to be hacked.

Irony. I remember the exact same thing coming from the other side 4 years ago.

Civil War? Really?

Sadly, it would mostly be a repeat of the last time. One of the reasons the South failed the first time was that they lacked the economic strength that the North had. Not much has really changed. The GDP of Republican states is far lower than GDP of Democratic states, even when you factor in the population difference.

So interference in an election from Russia is bad.


But interference in an election from other Americans from another state is OK?
