Executive Order 18438, titled “Imposing Certain Sanctions in the Event of Foreign Interference in a United States Election".
This E.O. was issued and signed by President Trump.
Since Dominion Software Systems is a foreign based company as well as Smartmatic SGO Group, President Trump could unilaterally declare the elections in any of the thirty states who used such companies to be null and void. He could use all the preceding law to invalidate those elections.
Nutshell: If Congress or Pence fail to block the electors or if the state legislatures fail to recall their electors, then Trump can on his own, without backing from any party or branch of government, impose martial law to cancel the previous election and order new elections.
