I haven't been this optimistic about the country since Obama was elected. That turned out to be a huge disaster, so hopefully my judgement now is better informed.

The first and only thing Trump actually needs to do is fix the elections.
Single day, paper ballot, hand counted at each polling location not at a centralized clearinghouse where boxes can be 'found' in a bathroom or appear at 3 am out of nowhere.
Everything else will work itself out with honest elections, anything but will be meaningless and reversed in a few elections (or one).
It is amazing that there are no repercussions for losing ballots. Every person at that polling station should immediately be arrested.
Afaik, the President doesn't have the authority to do that because the power to manage elections rests with the states.
The Federal government has a great deal of authority over state elections for federal offices:
The President can get congress to regulate state elections that have any Federal office.
Also the DoJ right now can put people away for false registration or illegal voting, or conspiring to do so, altering records - which could stop at least some of the cheating.
And it also seems that federal funding can be withheld at a whim. So I'd tell them enact election Legislation that checks at minimum certain boxes or fuck you and your roads. Literally bully them into passing legislation you like. Is that legal?
It is, that’s literally why every state has the drinking age at 21, because this bullying was used
Boom.
