It's outrageously ridiculously implausible considered probabilistically:
Setting aside all partisan feeling for the moment--imagine you're a USA citizen coming back from a 1,000 years in the future when all this is ancient history--in the last six years we've had an Impeachment, a hung state in the Electoral College resulting in a less than plurality President, a tied Senate with control resting on a single Senator's switch of caucus, and now we're staring straight down the barrel of a tied Electoral College. And that's only in our domestic political institutions, never mind the Global insanity.
I think I finally understand why "May you live in interesting times" is a curse.

I noticed that. Not much politically surprises me anymore.
I really hope it's not a tie. It'll be interesting, but I'll probably lose my hair in the aftermath.
