      In the case of tie in the electoral college, the House gets to pick the president. It hasn't happened since 1836 tho.

            In the case of a contingent election, the house doesn’t do a simple majority vote. The delegation from each state chooses who wins their state’s vote. Currently republicans control 26 states, enough to give Trump his second term.
