Hi @freemo

I saw you claiming that you prefer Trump to Biden for US president, which surprized me as I was under the impression that Trump is so bad for democratic & rule of law standards that no reasonable person valuing these things could support him. I also saw you point out some anti-Trump propaganda that was just factually wrong, so you seem to be knowledgeable in that matter. Since I am now wondering whether my views are just a result of such propaganda I was hoping you could verify some of the things that led me to my conclusions.

I am not a US citizen and this exercise is mostly for anti-propaganda calibration purposes for me. You seem to enjoy this kind of discussion, but I know that you are a busy man, so I won't assume a lack of response to have big significance. I will still be grateful for any you give.

Thread follows, ordered by a combination of severity and how sure I am of specific claims.

If neither trump nor biden win the president is not picked by the military. In that case it is picked by congress.

The process by which the house votes is written in such a way that it is not possible for them to be unable to decide.

@Theverytechnologypony

Basically they are forced to remain in session until they agree on a president and should they still not agree on one the vice president of the last term becomes president until they do.. But since they must remain in session they will find a way to agree just so they can go home.
