Hawley and Cruz did NOT believe the election was illegally and
unconstitutionally administered anywhere, and only a fool would think they did. What they believed was that they could advance their own political fortunes by promoting a massive lie for which there was no evidence whatsoever, much less “ample” evidence. You conveniently ignore that this was proven by the failure of five dozen legal challenges to the election results by the Trump campaign. Nonetheless, Cruz and Hawley enthusiastically attempted to deliberately deceive the American people into believing their democracy was under assault, just as Trump did, and unfortunately they convinced many gullible Americans. The results played out at the Capitol on January 6. Hawley and Cruz may or may not be guilty of sedition but they certainly are guilty of perverting constitutional processes for their own personal benefit, and much to the detriment of the nation. You clearly can’t see that because of your biases, but history, assuming the likes of Cruz and Hawley do not prevail and write it, will not treat them kindly.
