It seems like, again, just following the plain logic of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence (which, again, I do not subscribe to), that every law passed under Trump, every supreme court justice appointment by Trump, every supreme court ruling by Trump appointed justices, all the illegal firing, etc, must all, necessarily, be null and void.
And if not following from the insurrection act, or from the oath of office, then following from the Declaration of Independence itself. The logic here being that a constitution is a contract between the people and their government, which the later upholds in order to maintain its legal status. The violation of said laws by the government violates "consent of the governed" (which, again, I have issues with the concept entirely but we're just going to ignore that) and therefore nullifies the authority of that government, granting " the right of the people to alter or to abolish it."
That seems a lot like the hard reset some folks have been looking for. Given that existing flaws allowed this state to be reached, it would also be necessary for the true authority to correct those mistakes before assuming authority that derives from these principles.
Now, personally, I don't subscribe to any of this logic but it's interesting to explore, as an outsider, where the logic goes.

I had seven moles surgically removed yesterday because my dermatologist didn't like the way they looked.
So now I have stitches all over my body and I'm not allowed to stretch unduly to prevent the sutures from coming apart.
I guess that's one way to keep me from reaching anything but the lowest hanging fruits.

Our friend Lenny has this shaggy orange cat who we took care of when he was off on vacation -- I think my cat photos are better than most of what gets posted to LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/paul-houle-a18809320/
