    He’ll try to cancel the election, but the states run their own elections. So at most all hell accomplish is red states not holding elections and the Dem candidate winning in a landslide.

    Then shit really gets crazy

        But it’s the new Congress that would select the President in this manner, and if Red states don’t hold elections, they can’t send any representatives to that new Congress.
