If the election was stolen...

... not just the Presidency, but also some house and Senate seats, and then they handed themselves a tax cut, while bankrupting the government, isn’t that also part of the crime?

Assuming there was conspiracy to commit treason against the 323 million people of America, what would be the legal basis for Taking back what is rightfully the property of the majority of Americans?

Once real statesmen are in power once again, what emergency measures might be employed?
For example:
1. Seizure of assets
2. Temporary government control of banks to protect against flight of illegally obtained assets
3. Military operations to seize information and assets in tax haven countries because they are known to hold stolen property of the citizens of America
4. Emergency healthcare funding for anyone that lost their health insurance
5. Reversal of Appointments by convicted felons
6. Tax increase on beneficiaries of the tax cut for the wealthy and estate tax cut to make up for losses incurred since the legislation was passed
7. New elections for any office that may have obtained through use of stolen data or other conspiracy, even if the person who was elected was not convicted of a crime

This time may be coming. Happy 2018!

The rich and powerful do not usually pay for their crimes.

And maybe it is the price we pay for electing morons, the greedy and the
power hungry. And not securing our voting system.

Our only hope of reversing this is enough Governors, Congressmen, Senators to enact a constitution that will give democracy a fair chance. No gerrymandering, no electoral college, reverse citizens united, federal oversight and control of elections, public funding of elections, and many other reforms. Our democracy is seriously flawed and it scares the shit out of me. We now have a mob family in charge of our government. The process that allowed this to happen must be fixed or America will indeed be a fascist government. It may be too late.
