I regret everything about my decision to check that out except this -
Because man, some of the stuff that popped up somehow was...wild. Some guy ranting about a great reset and the importance of returning to the gold standard. Weird shit.

And Trump's gonna start running issue ads encouraging folks to call Republican Legislators and encourage them to overturn the vote.
Fuck literally any channel that chooses to run this.
I'm hoping they limit their "destruction" to ripping up the hegemony of the republican party.
It'll be interesting to see after the Georgia Runoffs if these "republican spoilers" actually contribute in any major way and cost the GOP the senate runoffs, or if they're simply a loud minority. I think, unfortunately, that it's likely the latter, and that most GOP voters will do what they always do... fall in line and vote for the person with the R next to their name.

I'm less worried about large insurrection, that shit would get shut down real quick before anything happened. Lone gunman type are something to worry about, but that's something to always worry about.
But I do agree, I want the GOP to eat themselves alive, right wingers are now blaming QAnon for being democrat infiltrators, if youre not crazy enough your a rino and a traitor, I hope it screws them in GA and well the rest of the country and they never recover.
There will always be members of the oppressed who will sell out other oppressed people for their own survival but also for their own greed. There were slaves who sold out other slaves to the masters and there were Jews who worked alongside Germans to send fellow Jews off to the death camps.
I think for all the bluff and fluster these specific GOP nutters put out, the majority of GOP voters are generally just... not tapped in to what's happening in any meaningful way. Meaning the majority of people also probably aren't particularly exposed to the memelord shitbird-types who are now trying to tank the republican party from within, ESPECIALLY considering that the GOP's mouthpieces like Fox and the greater Murdoch media empire have tried to very swiftly quell any such "Trump or no one" sentiment becoming known.
As I said, though, that's my impression. I think the only appreciable sort of metrics we'll see on this are going to be in the Georgia runoffs, but even that isn't "pure" data on the matter.

Why do republicans think, that "It was only dismissed on standing, not on merit" be good for them?
It shows, that around 20 attorney generals do not know, how constitution and the law actually works. Which should be enough reason to fire them. Or they know, and filed anyway. In which case they honestly should be fired and charged.
Secondly, the "lower courts" have so far concluded, that the merits of the accusations so far were nill. So even if it was heard, it would probably go the exact same route.
And thirdly, hell, yeah of course it was dismissed based on standing before being heard. Because otherwise every state could now go, out of poor motivations like vindictiveness and sue different states, making the whole justice system a mess. Scotus does not open that can of wurms.

short answer yes
slightly longer answer, if 1 person of both chambers object on jan 6th, they separate and debate and both must vote to sustain the objection for it to matter. But since the house is dem controlled(note this is the new congress not the current one) they're not gonna go along with any objections. And the next step is inauguration. So after Monday yeah Trump can't do anything.
I wonder, how many republicans will get "cold feet". Now, after the SCOTUS ruling, attempting to keep Trump on the "throne" is pretty much plain sedition, and doesn't have even the flimsiest justification, and can get your ass in jail. Which.. as many of Trump's lawyers in the around 50 lawsuits, they are probably simply not willing to do. Trump has exhausted every legal option (which were doomed to fail, but now their failing is also cast in stone).
The SCOTUS already rejected the lawsuit, and with it now being the weekend and electors voting on Monday, Trump is effectively out of time.
It's possible he might try to keep contesting all the way until the inauguration, but there's no legal precedent for overturning an election after the electoral college votes, and the SCOTUS already rejected two suits.
So, if you want to hear Trump in court, you'll have to wait for all the investigations and lawsuits waiting for him when he leaves office.
I wonder if Trump can run for President of Russia have all the Trumpster immigrate there.
