Appeal to reason guys! Trump has gone to far!
Yeah so has the left! they burned down cities, harassed and doxed anyone right wing for 4 years, created a hoax investigation on a sitting president, used hearsay to try and impeach him, deplatformed right wing influencers and everyday people to censor them, then rigged an election. Clearly giving them what they want will be better right?

Darling, you are so mixed up. A cop doesn't have to present you with the proof of your speeding guilt before he pulls you over.

I support Trump but if he did nothing to properly ensure the election was secure he has no one else to blame.
You don't understand how little control the federal government actually has over the individual state election processes. To put it bluntly, zero. The states control their elections and there was nothing Trump could do to stop the illegality he saw happening before everyone's eyes.

Lowering to their level of brute force isn't the solution, it only gives them an opening to scream fascist and dictator, as we can already see from this thread. If Trump tries to use brute force to stay in the White House the left will perceive it as an outright assault on democracy and will make the previous riots look like childs play. And I think they would have some right to feel the election was stolen from them should the legal system decide there was no fraud. I don't think that resulting chaos would be worth it just to prevent Biden being President. Trump can always run again in 4 years and he will most certainly win after people realize how useless Biden is. It's guaranteed to happen so long as the election isn't completely rigged and many people will be demanding better security protocols over the next 4 years.

Seems like a more secure voting system should be a bipartisan issue, people in government should want a system they have full control over instead of private corporations.

The difference being these people are actually advocating a military take over, just like every communist that has ever sized power has done. Luckily this has no chance of happening.
Tell me what's "rational" about this idea?
What’s the difference between that and rigging an election?
Not much. But you need to prove it was rigged in court. Not on the internet. So far, they have not been able to do that.
I will wait! Also wasn’t the left saying they are making lists of trump supporters and wanting to cancel culture them.
The left says all types of crazy crap. Interesting that the right now sounds exactly like the left did after Hillary lost, no?

Benjamin Franklin once said: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

You absolutely refuse to see your inability to accept reality. Let me put this in all caps. EVERYTHING YOU ARE BASING YOUR ARGUMENT UPON IS THE STANDARD LEGAL PROCEDURE AFTER THE FACT YOU WERE ALREADY ARRESTED.
