There is no 'conspiracy theory' in the clear and obvious observation of an insurrection on Capitol Hill wherein many attempted to thwart the Jan 6 validation of votes.
Despite Dragon's decent response, it is far from clear what the outcome would be where the vote to have been stopped.
It's also false to suggest that the laws are clear enough to disambiguate these situations.
At very least, there would be a constitutional legal war the likes of which the country has never seen.
But most importantly - the issue is one of populism: if 1/3 of the country does not believe the results of what was by all accounts an unambiguous outcome - and were capable of literally stopping the process - then it 'doesn't matter what the law is' because already the system will have gone beyond objective reality and due process. It's Game of Thrones then.
