I think the real crisis is that the election was close enough to swing, even given your premise that a foreign power did it.

is 3 million votes really that close? The electoral college is an anti democratic institution but that is a separate matter.

That's an unfair way to put it because Trump would have campaigned differently given a direct popular vote, and may still have won.

Many things might be in alternative universes. We'll never know. What we've got is votes that we can count. And a fascist leaning sociopathic liar as president, whom the majority of the voters did not vote for.

But who won the election. We agree on a lot of stuff, my point is that there are 60M Americans who voted for Trump and that is the challenge and crisis we face.
