This is a terrifying precedent, though. If it becomes demonstratable that a sitting president can ignore the vote and veto the election, then every president from then until the end of time can argue against the “damage” the next president will cause. This was Hitler claiming “emergency powers,” and you will immediately have a dictatorship, not a democracy.
I’m not saying another Trump presidency is “fine” by any regard, but I don’t believe in being a fascist to prevent fascism.

The alternative is do nothing and then act surprised when the GOP do whatever the fuck they want anyway, regardless of Democrat high-road stances.
It’s already happened. It can’t be undone.
The Supreme Court could be undone.
Not in this political climate. Dafuq you talking about?
That means it won’t be undone, not that it couldn’t be.
