Another scenario: Republifascists succeed in mucking up the count to the point where neither major party candidate gets to 270 Electoral College votes. Under the Twelfth Amendment of the slave-owners’ Constitution, the election in that scenario is sent to the US House of Representatives, which votes by state delegation instead of by individual members. Trump wins under that scenario since the Republicans are the majority in more state delegations in the US House than are the Democrats. (The criminal neofascist Trump coup attorney John Eastman was trying to activate this 12th Amendment scenario in 2020-21.)
