Still highly improbable, but not unfathomable. Clinton diehards will cite the ongoing WI "recount" & Trump's crazed tweets as justification.

If you genuinely believe that Trump is a fascist menace, it would make logical sense to block him from power using this extreme method.

Even if you have to toss centuries of precedent in the trash and cause a full-blown Constitutional crisis: it'd be worth it to stop Trump.

Difficult to say -- GOP electors forge some kind of pact with Dem electors so neither gets 270, throw it to the House.

Seems pretty far-fetched. State electors are party regulars, including elected officials. They aren't impartial like jurors.

I agree that it's far-fetched. I'd say there's about a 5% chance of it happening. Small, but not 0%
