He won't be able to.

He'll be too busy with his hand shoved up tRump's ass as his puppet master to be holding the Bible.

(BTW no way Trump "won" those states. So true. They

were given TO him courtesy of a his Russian bestie).

the election outcome legally because of the facts regarding Russia hacked the election, seems like there should be a do-over.

They interfered in it.

There are no mechanisms within the framework of the Constitution for a "do-over" election. There are, however, procedures in place to remove him from office.

Republicans will align to impeach and remove him, they control everything... The only thing he could do to piss them off is submit a liberal justice for SCOTUS and that's not gonna happen.
