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.

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

Thats what he said in 2016. Guess who sued four states that represented his margin of victory to stop recounts of 1% difference in votes for Trump v Clinton.
Yeah he said it in both election cycles https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/512424-trump-the-only-way-we-are-going-to-lose-this-election-is-if-the/
Apparently he says that a lot, including when The Apprentice lost the Emmys to Amazing Race.
