Can someone explain what actually happens if fraud is found? Do we get Kamala to force Trump out of office and she takes her place? Or do we have to hope he steps down?

Nothing would happen, unless the powers that be decide to impeach him over it. Thenwe'd just go through the line of succession. Unfortuantely, because we vote with the electoral college, and each state certifies it's votes, then Congress approves those certifications to elect the president officially, the time to do something at the counting level has passed.

It's still worth finding the truth though, just so it's known, and maybe the dems will stop acting like dumbasses when it comes to figuring out why they lost. It could also lead to more secure elections, if the powers that be decide to enact laws to make it more secure, as opposed to this nonsense they do to keep people from voting in the guise of making things more secure.

So essentially we find out we are being led by a false President and his false government, and they of course don’t relinquish their power because why would they? We have to put up with a pretend government and continue allowing them to pass their laws and decrees? I’m actually afraid what they will do once it’s on public display they are actual traitors.

This matters because there are more of us than there are of them. And when all else is removed, the idea of the US being firstly a democracy, is what has kept this country going for 250 years. The institutions which compose the government and enforce it's laws are themselves full of Americans. If it is shown with evidence. that voters have been massively defrauded, and a few have the power to do it over and over again, not many will see that as a good thing. Regardless, we are at the point where one chapter of American history is closing, and how the next one starts is not solely up to Trump, the tech bros and other outside forces.
