Donnie literally said the only way he loses is if Democrats cheat, and that was back in August of 2020. Projection as usual.

If the dems don't control the house, they will do this again
Even if the Dems control the House, they will do this again.
The way it works is you sow enough chaos to invalidate the Electoral College count. If you pull that off, the President is chosen by the House.
But the vote in the House isn't one member, one vote... oh, no no no... it's one STATE one vote.
So California with all it's 52 Representatives? 1 vote. New York? 1 vote.
Since there are more red states than blue states, that would throw the election to the Republican.
Source?
I’ve never heard one state one vote. If it was the senate, 2 votes 2 states would make sense, but the House of Representatives never runs on a per state basis that I know of (maybe ratifying the constitution I guess, but that’s not a House only process).
US Constitution, Article 2, Section 1, Clause 3.
But in chusing [sic] the President, the Votes shall be taken by States, the Representation from each State having one Vote;
Jesus fucking Christ, our constitution is so flawed, it's not even funny.
What an antiquated, garbage document. It needs some thorough updating or we need to start from scratch.
It was designed to be specifically undemocratic in a couple of situations. The intent, of course, is that Congress could block populist or extremist candidates from the presidency. But that depends on the legislature not being composed of complete imbeciles.
