“A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution. Our great ‘Founder’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections.” – Donald J. Trump
Now can we try him for treason?
(I know, I know, it would be a risky prosecution, therefore a case probably won't be brought.)
My impression is if he is brought to trial, probably for stealing classified documents, he will lose. It is one thing for him to be a creepy criminal in New York City, where the system is rigged to protect the very wealthy, and another to do so in Federal court, where even his hand-picked justices will think twice about blatant corruption. It would be a huge symbolic victory. HOWEVER…
It is not clear to me that convicting him would destroy or even very much weaken the fascist movement he jumped out in front of. We are still going to have to fight the political battles.

Nailing Trump won't stop Trumpism any more than sending Capone to jail stopped organized crime but not doing so is even worse. The courts must go after each criminal in turn as fast as possible and continue doing so
