Then the election goes to the House of Representatives, where each delegation gets one vote. Trump wins.

House of Representatives vote for President, however vote is by state, not by member. So whichever party has the majority of reps in each state has the advantage.

Unless there is 1 faithless elector which there were many last time.

I see now the vote goes to the House. I honestly do not know if the USA could survive if this was to happen

Oops my bad... Each state votes, not the individual members. Civics class needed for me.

a simple majority of states (26) based on representative districts wins.
Louisiana: 5-1 Trump (Trump win)
California: 33-20 Biden (Biden wins)
So it's 1-1 at that point. Both need 25 more.
easy Trump win.
