I think that if no one receives a majority of electoral college votes a contingent election is held. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contingent_election Of course there are reasons that the American system has tended to gravitate to a 2 party system. However this was also the case in the 1930s in Germany. In 1933 all the conservative parties in Germany supported the enabling act which made Hitler a de facto Dictator.

An interesting guy. He's actually a Journalist called Justin King from the border of Kentucky/Tennessee who completely erased his southern accent at one point when entering left wing media. Now with his "Beau" persona he lays his southerness on extra thick. Him talking about his accent, identity and Beau persona: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=1669042139875580

It's an interesting question. I think a lot of the people at the protest/insurrection truly believed that the election was stolen by the Democrats, and that pandemic restrictions and lockdowns are a nefarious attempt by the liberals to impose tyranny on the American people. The fact that these people were unbeknownst to them actually taking part in an insurrection to prevent the lawful transition of power to Biden after he won the election raises the question who should actually bear the brunt of the punishment: the duped Trumpists or the media figures, corporations, and politicians who fostered these falsehoods?

Is anybody worried something next-level crazy is going to happen in the next 8 days? Trump and his cronies have legitimate worries that they are going to be taken out once they leave office. There are probably crimes nobody is even speculating about right now that will come to light once lower level government officials feel free to bring them to their superiors. On top of this rational is the fact that armed protests are being planned for January 17th and 20th.
