The emerging argument of "Yes, the president and his allies want to overturn the results of an election and would do so in a heartbeat if at all possible, but it's not like they actually CAN," is not exactly very reassuring for the future of democracy.

"Not exactly very reassuring" это очень мягко сказано. Трамп продемонстрировал за эти четыре года хрупкость и уязвимость американской демократии.
