Could we reverse a hacked presidential election?

11. There is only one way and to say it is unlikely is an understatement

First, the President has to be seen as complicit in the hacking. So lets make that a given for the moment.

Once an investigation is had and this is all proven, the Attorney General has to propose a deal to the President and other senior members of his party. To avoid prosecution once you are impeached or once you are out of office, you have to perform the following steps:

1. Your Vice President has to resign.
2. You have to name your erstwhile General Election Opponent as your new Vice President. Members of your party must vote to confirm this.
3. You must then resign as POTUS.

If this is not followed, the book will be thrown at the President and all co-conspirators, there will be a showy public trial and that entire political party will be dragged into the mud.

This has the advantage of being possible, which many other proposed remedies do not have. But it is still highly unlikely.

Update:
Now, if we take the hypothetical situation of a President who benefited from a hacking and honestly had no idea it was happening on their behalf? There is no mechanism to deal with that. You would have to have a POTUS and VPOTUS and party that viewed democratic elections as sacrosanct and would perform the steps I outlined above without any threats hanging over their heads. The GOP definitely does not fit that description. Would Democrats do it? I'd like to think so. I am not sure though.
