“This is this is a very serious thing..if you ignore it you do so at the peril of the nation, in the sense that if you look at history, unsuccessful coups that aren’t addressed within the legal framework in a nation of laws tend to be dress rehearsals and  I think that’s what we’re looking at right now in the sense that all of the actions seem to me not to be so much about what happened in 2020 anymore but about in preparation for what might happen in 2024.” Steve Schmidt
