This is only tangentially related, but did anyone else hear about Trump's reference to Thomas Jefferson's decision after the 1800 election? I was unaware of this until just recently and wasn't familiar with what actually happened, so I looked it up. Trump stated that if Pence had just done what Jefferson did, he (Trump) would still be in office. Turns out Trump, or whomever put the idea in his head, was completely opposite. Pence did exactly what Jefferson did, he read off the electoral votes and didn't question a damn thing even though Jefferson probably should have paused on Georgia's vote packet. Read up on this if you haven't; it's fascinating.
Why is it so?
