I think Trump has little interest in the policy aims of his Presidency, apart from converting DoJ into his own personal police force and exercising the powers of the office to maintain himself in it. But there are many competing interests who always seek to sway a President to their POV on issues. Look at how successfully the Supreme Court was flipped, after all.
Yeah, of course, but if Lake and Marchant blatantly switch votes/electors to TFG, all bets are off for US democracy. Imagine if TFG can call up Marchant, ask for him to "find 33597 votes," and that exact number of votes appear a few days later. If Michigan elects Dixon, she can certify an alternate slate of electors or just refuse to recognize some votes from overwhelmingly Democratic Detroit.
When I suggest TFG will be sidelined, if things devolve, he'll find himself replaced by his own party when he's in office. He's too stubborn and too self-absorbed to spread the wealth and power around. Why worry about laws when they can be shaped to your will with crazyass fake conspiracies? He'll be outplayed by Bannon or DeSantis.
There's a political theory called Curvilinear Disparity. If the party leadership buys into the crazy of its most extreme members, things go off the rails for everyone.
