If you take up arms against your country on or near Inauguration Day (or any day, really) in order to try and change the outcome of a free and fair election, you will be charged with sedition or treason. Let the courts sort it out later. Even if Trump is able to pardon himself, I see a lot of court cases explicitly accusing Trump of inciting and lying their clients into sedition. This could get really interesting.
