“Yeah... they’re desperate so they’ll make up fake claims about GOP Elector defections.”
Let’s say, just for discussion, that Trump should be denied 270 electoral votes. Wouldn’t it then go to the House to decide? Being the GOP has a healthy margin i believe it would simply reaffirm Trump. However, grant that there’s no guarantees this would happen. Guess it would depend on how many never Trumpers there are in the GOP side.
No.
It would depend on who the other Republican, the one with 37 EV, was.
What if it was Paul Ryan? What if it was Mitt Romney?
I have zero confidence in the "Republican" House in such a scenario.
