Since you seem to have given this scenario some thought you may also have considered some options to respond.

At the core, there are two possibilities. The first is simply to accept it and have four more years of the same circus. With that precedence, the 2024 election is irrelevant as the PTB can simply install whoever they choose to the office.

The other choice is to not accept it. That opens a whole range of possibilities from having two competing Presidents to passive opposition to more active measures.

In either case, large numbers of people will be operating outside of any Constitutional framework. The last example of such a situation led to much bloodshed, although it is not a given that history will repeat itself.
