Lock and load?

We aren't a true democracy so it wouldn't be getting overturned. The electors are allowed to vote for whoever they want. They are not bound by what voters did in their state. It was purposely set up that way.

Social chaos, violence and blood in the streets. A feeling of revolution in the air. A great purge on the way.

War.

White people riot. Nobody wants pissed off, rioting white people.

I truly think you'd see a revolution, especially if Trump fanned the flames a bit.

Nothing out of the ordinary will happen tomorrow. The left will melt and cry, but that's normal.

Initially I had read your thread as what happens tomorrow so I will actually answer both questions.
First what you asked
It will go to the House who will put in Donald Trump
In regards to what will actually happen tomorrow?
Trump gets voted on and the dems will plead with the house to not certify/object to the electoral college vote (which in theory can happen)
It wont and then they will plead with obama to prevent the inauguration.
When that doesnt happen they will plead with the House to impeach him.

There's a reason Trump has picked a lot of generals. Just in case we need the military to stop the globalists

Don't we live in a republic, and the very idea of the electrical college voting is the exact same boat as you are all screaming at the top of your lungs about the popular vote not mattering?!?!?
Seriously, frick all of you - and FWIW, the electors are selected by the fricking party that won. Blame the fricking GOP if this shite went down: protip - it fricking won't

Damn straight. I'm gonna go into Academy Sports in Bossier City and steal 100 Pro VI golf balls. And if they try to stop me I'm not going to jail. I'll take the greeter hostage with a five iron to the throat. Harsh? Perhaps.

Wikileaks releases the bank statements of all faithless electors.

I believe 29 states have laws saying otherwise and the rest have oaths to uphold the will of the people of that state.

Was is it good for?
(And, for the record, one of the reasons that violence is such a satisfying means of problem solving is that feedback is immediate.)

The fact that this is even a discussion is insane.
