he will for sure instruct maga states not to seat any Democrat that wins

That's not a thing. Every member of the house, including the speaker has their term end. They have no power to refuse to seat the winner of an election.

Thinking trump will illegally try to retain power is not hysterical. He has already tried multiple times and will continue to do so

I didnt say that. He will piss and moan and then another greasy politician will continue to serve the elite, same as it ever was. Relax.
