House Speaker Hakeem Jeffries gets all Dems and 20 well-placed RINOs in the House to refuse Trump any more than 20 states, more likely 15 states, and Biden is inaugurated.

In 1992, Ross Perot got almost 19% of the vote and didn’t win a single state. Not only that … he only finished in SECOND place in one state (Maine).
