Interview: "Little Secret”? Trump’s Likely Plan to Steal Election with GOP House Speaker Johnson
Elie Mystal says the secret is almost certainly a plan to force a contingent election, whereby no candidate wins a majority of the Electoral College & the president is instead chosen by the HoR.
Even if Dems challenge such an outcome, the case would go to the Supreme Court with a conservative supermajority that is likely to side with Trump.

the last time it happened was 1824, the house voted and that gave us president #johnquincyadams and defeated #andrewjackson who had the most popular votes
(and the anger from that led to the creation of the #democratic party- a very different party from today, like #lincoln's #republican party is nothing at all like the #GOP today)
the question is: can #MAGA engineer a tie?
i don't think that it could
i fear being proven wrong

i was dubious of your suggestion
but i think about it, you're right
they fling enough shit, delay just enough, to get their #SCOTUS ghouls to rule in a way that gives us #trump "in the name of expediency"
like the assholes ruled for #bush over #gore in 2000, when if the count continued, gore could have prevailed and no #iraqwar
#harris has to win outright in a large amount of states to squash shit flinging scenarios
people: you need to #vote!
