So why did Trump not take immediate action to prevent it from happening when he saw the potential for it leading up to the election. Furthermore why did he concede the stolen election and hand the office over to domestic enemies?

There are legit things about Trump to criticize.

This isn’t one of them. States run their elections.

There is no such thing as a federal election. Instead we have 50 different elections run by 50 different states under laws set by state legislatures. It is up to the people within each state to monitor what their state is doing.

because he isnt a dictator and he follows the law

he is not the guy you idiots claim he is

now your turn, should he have sent in the military to take over every state in the country and have the military run the election? because only the states control elections

the problem wasnt why didnt he do this or that after, the problem was he did nothing when the democrats were setting the steal up.

democrats filed lawsuit after lawsuit, setting themselves up, in case it was a coin flip, and they could try to steal it. Even Rush himself mentioned it for 2 weeks leading up to the election.

Trump and his team did nothing, didnt get boots on the ground to catch the thieves, nothing.

Rush limbaugh was adamant that the democrats were setting it all in motion, by getting boots on ground filing law suits, and readying their game plan. Trump and his team did nothing in both battle ground states.

He didn't, but is being accused of insurrection anyway.

So, he might as well have.

Trump by himself did not have the resources to create and manage a multi state challenge spearheaded by election law experts in each individual state.

But you know who did?

The Republican National Committee.

So why didn't they do it and left Trump swimming with Lin Wood, Rudy Giuliani and Jenna Ellis?

I'll answer with a question.

Why would they seek to overturn an election that produced the result they wanted?

On the other hand, Democrats assembled a 600 lawyer army prepared to call what is now known as the safest most secure election in history the most hacked and fraudulent.

Republicans never fought for Trump for 4 years, did anyone think they would fight when the believed they were finally rid of him?

They did, they were dismissed for "lack of standing". It's easy to say you didn't do something early or well enough if you lose, whether or not it's true. We knew they were planning things, we just didn't know everything they'd do, and Republicans don't operate in the same context that Democrats do. We assume the Constitution will be enforced, the courts will almost always get it right, and "they" won't allow people to get away with things.

We're now operating under the understanding that none of that is true. This is why my "principles" are locked up in storage and my goal now is winning, even if it means... well, I won't say it here. But anything short of shedding innocent blood (and not in the "innocent until proven guilty" sense), is fine in my book.

Because the president doesn't have nearly as much power as some of you think he does

Federal takeover of elections would be a terrible thing its up to the states to figure it out

Any lawsuit filed before the election was dismissed for no cause of action or lack of standing (since the fraud had not yet occurred). Following the election cases were dismissed for laches because we were told they should have been filed before the election. A few cases did make it through. Like in Wisconsin where they rules hundreds of thousands of illegal votes were counted.

Further, elections are run by the individual states. What remedy do you propose Trump had as President?

All they had to do was focus on 5 cities. Detroit, Phoenix, ATL, Philly, & Milwaukee. These 5 cities are where the election was lost. Trump won all 5 states these cities were in in 2016. They knew what they had to do & they did it. Just look up what strange things happened in these 5 cities. They rigged the machines & dropped the mail in ballots in the middle of the night. It is on video but nothing happened to them. No consequences. They stole it.

He took action in September 2018 with Executive Order 13848-Imposing Certain Sanctions in the Event of Foreign Interference in a United States Election.

Now people can understand why the Marxists allowed J6 to happen to shut down the Congressional reaction to the election only to revive it in an emergency setting without allowing any reaction whatsoever.

I prefer to call it a well planned coup de tat.

They are trying to indict him on what little he tried…. Look at Georgia…. There is no way to stop or investigate election fraud. Cheat, or get left behind….

You do well to put that word in quotes.
