A path to Trump´s victory through the House

A little known fact is that the US Constitution allows for state legislators to call the election results, just so happens that in the most contested states the Republicans have a majority in the House through state legislators.

In the video below, author of The Constitution Study, Paul Engel, goes into details of how this can be achieved by the Trump administration.

Perhaps this is why Trump seems very confident lately?

I have seen stuff like this but my understanding is that it would cause a constitutional nightmare.

It would be a travesty for democracy and when you consider that the judges are chucking out all the voter fraud cases the claim that they're doing it because of fraud wouldn't really have a leg to stand on. I don't think they would do it, if they did it would show just how outdated and in need of a fix the whole concept of the EC really is.

This also makes a massive argument agains the idea of fraud, with so many republican contorted states why didn't they do anything to stop this alleged fraud?

Interesting thought though.

I love though how it goes on to talk about Sharpie-gate....again the courts laughed that out of the room.

Biden will be found ineligible, giving trump his second term.

Will definitely be an outcome that only remotely involves ballots cast by the citizenry.

It would be even worse than a constitutional nightmare. Americans on both sides would never again trust the election process, and neither would other countries. It's not the way to go.

and when you consider that the judges are chucking out all the voter fraud cases the claim that they're doing it because of fraud wouldn't really have a leg to stand on.

This is nothing unusual or out of the ordinary. Look at any past election challenges and you'll find both sides won and lost cases. It's who wins the final case if and when it goes to the scotus that usually wins overall.

Nef brought this up recently and I agree with both of you to some extent, but when you have a government that is nearly as divided as its citizens, it becomes hard to get anything done on a larger scale. The Trump administration has warned republicans of this for some time. Al Gore made his own plea for better safeguards back in 2000.

if they did it would show just how outdated and in need of a fix the whole concept of the EC really is.

The only people who want to do away with the electoral college are those who don't understand how it works and what it does for both parties. The EC is the only thing keeping this country out of the hands of majority rule. Do away with it, and the destruction of America will follow.

Would you expound on that please?

Which States do you have going against either their Constitutions or laws that mandate the State's Electors get appointed to the Party winning the popular vote of that State?

How about all the states that currently violated their existing election years for sending unsolicited ballots, and counting them up to 7 days after the election.

Just ask Sam Alito, he has been slapping them down repeatedly.

Uh, actually you should probably reread that Alito thing, he was telling them that the extension that was granted from the 10th to the 12th should be segregated which they were. Too bad for you those votes were never counted in the total to begin with.

What about a Trump tweet "Biden is ineligible as he was born on Venus" giving him a second term. Real news

No, but it would definitely cause a nightmare for TDS sufferers.

Ummm... this view is a direct result of the mistaken belief that this country is a democracy. It is not. It is a Constitutional Republic, that happens to incorporate some democratic principles wrt selecting Representatives.

As for the rest...

There is more than enough statistical data to prove that Trump voters had their constitutional rights violated under the 14th Amendment. This is all that's needed in order for the SCOTUS to throw the election to the Congress.

Also confirmed by Jerome Corsi below...

When the case reaches the Supreme Court, the justices have been traditionally reluctant to pick winners and losers in elections. Also, the Supreme Court is likely to insist that questions of voter fraud had to be settled in state and federal trial courts. In the federal court system, the Supreme Court would expect the federal district courts to have adjudicated whether or not voter fraud occurred and if it occurred in sufficient numbers to award the presidency to Trump. Unfortunately, given the Constitutional deadlines, including the setting of the inauguration day on January 20, 2021, there may not be enough time for the federal district courts to conduct the trials that would be required.

Fortunately, the Constitution provides the Supreme Court a remedy. When the Electoral College fails to vote 270 electors to any one presidential candidate, the solution is for the Supreme Court to throw the election to the Congress.

The Election Goes to Congress

According to Article II, Section 1, Clause 3 of the Constitution, as modified by the Twelfth Amendment, the U.S. House of Representatives votes for the president and the U.S. Senate votes for the vice president. In the House of Representatives, each state gets one delegate vote in the vote for president; in the U.S. Senate, the candidate receiving the majority of votes becomes the vice president.
