The only reason I have hope that this is true is because ALL of Trumps Supreme Court picks betrayed us while Alito and Thomas seemed dumbfounded. It seems unrealistically inept for Trump to not get at least one right...
That's my theory, at least where Dr. Rand Paul is concerned (none of the others you listed I would trust without more evidence) Honestly, I was indignant about this at first, until I read his reasoning... Dr. Rand Paul is one who I highly doubt can be corrupted. (He's already had a number of attempts on his life!) I don't think Rand believed that the Congress had the power to nullify state certification with out sending it to the state legislatures. He tried to get the Congress to do the right thing by making the motion to send certification to the state legislatures but his effort failed. He's a strong 10th Amendment supporter, and believed that to decertify a state's certifications (without sending it to the state legislatures) would have been an usurpation of state's rights. He has been very consistent on minimizing the power of the federal government, so this is consistent with his principles.
I'd like to point out as well that there has never been even a 'role-playing' feud with Rand. (Though President Trump has either commented on or out right acted on a feud with Pence, for example)
He certainly did. He caved when we needed him most. Can't trust him anymore.
This cannot be overstated. We NEEDED the Republican state legislatures. We NEEDED our warriors in Congress. We NEEDED Mike Pence. We NEEDED SCOTUS.
They had our fate in their hands and they folded like lawn chairs.
I've never felt so betrayed in my life.

I could be wrong, but my guess is that a few people were told to stand down as you suggested. The ones Trump was pretty confident he could count on.
That would allow the hidden RINOs to be exposed.
Also, that allowed the DS to be distracted while the forensic audit movement gained traction.
There's a battle going on - on many fronts.

I think it's alsompossible that he's just a naive idealist who doesn't fully understand that this is a war.
