If the Trump/Russia conspiracy is ‘legally’ proven & 2016 election proven rigged?

@HillaryClinton should immediately be offered the Presidency.

after Trump is removed & imprisoned every action by Trump as POTUS & ALL laws should be reversed including his SCOTUS appt
I suggest as a remedy we separate the General election from the Presidential election and start the 4yr cycle forward after the removal of Trump. @HillaryClinton rightfully deserves 4 years in office.
Gosh, that idea must sound too radical.

I’ll grant you back in the normal days before the-hack-heard-around-the-world 2016 election I would agree.

Not anymore. We need radical changes to the outdated election system. I’ve been screaming it for years.
