With lying, external influence, racism, terrorism and general crime he was just democratically elected. Supporting democracy means that it has to be followed.
No, the US constitution literally has a protection for this exact scenario: the electoral college. The founding fathers knew that the general population was stupid and could fall victim to a tyrant, so the EC was supposed to vote against the popular vote if that happened. They couldn’t have forseen the internet, though.
Our government has a responsibility to protect the country and the constitution from those who seek to destroy it, and Trump and gang seek to destroy it. They all should face a military tribunal for sedition and treason, and be hung for it.
Technically, the US also has protections against wannabe dictators claiming they are above the law: a supreme court which, were it not undermined by that dictator’s toadies, should shut that shit down in a second. Still, there’s a difference between blindly following everything that court makes up out of thin air and supporting the actual rule of law. Same with democracy.
