(1) The USA has the best constitutional system but it's not the only one that has three branches of govt as a check and balance on the others.
Folk who don't understand the current crisis don't understand why a country needs an

(2) The enemies of the people have tried to brainwash citizens into a distorted and dishonest idea of how government works.
The legislative branch is often more important than the executive branch.
They make the law. Executive carries them out. Judiciary interprets the law.

(6) This crisis will be a day of reckoning for (mainly) the GOP reps in each statehouse; and for any Democrat or other reps who care about the nonpartisan issue of electoral integrity.

(7) We can already see that many of our elected or appointed officials at the state level are, like their federal counterparts, enticed by the rewards of "working with" powerful, well-resourced individuals, foreign and domestic.
I don't buy their excuses about threats.

(9) There's a lot of talk out there from people urging you to do other things in an effort to help the wishes of the majority of eligible voters to be respected. Some ideas are useless, others are downright harmful to the cause.
