A serious attempt by legislators or a candidate to invalidate a plainly valid election to install someone who plainly lost the election as president is not a "legal hack" or "finalizing results". It is treason. It is a treason against the United States and its citizens. We shouldn't dance around it.

Treason requires a declared war. The correct legal term is “sedition”. Just as it was on J6.

The founders would have understood it as treason, and would resort to war against someone who attempted it, and punish it with hanging. Other countries would prosecute it as treason. That is what it is. Folks should be clear eyed on it.

I think it's more sedition than treason, at least up until the point where they take up arms to try to install the loser by force. (Metaphorically it's treason either way.)

Akshually treason is defined as giving aid and comfort to the nation's enemy in time of war. Staging a coup is not treason but is still a bad crime.

A candidate for President publicly solicited a billion-dollar bribe he is likely to collect and the Attorney General complained about how tough his job is the same week almost. We’re in trouble.

Don’t get upset. The Supreme Court and thinks it’s no biggie.. Neither is peddling nuclear secrets all day long to make some extra millions.

They are going to challenge the results win or lose. The point isn’t “winning” it’s breaking the system so that they can be the new system with absolute authority.

Such an action is commonly known as a coup d'etat.
