I think this very much remains to be seen. There’s a history of movements like this, essentially based around one figure and lacking a coherent ideology, crumbling once Dear Leader is perceived as a loser. It’s not inevitable that that will happen in this case, but it’s certainly plausible.

I would assume that most of his bluster about actually winning is aimed more at casting doubt on this in the minds of his followers than any realistic hope of overturning the process.

Not to make people nervous or anything but the US has had a president with non-consecutive terms before. It's not implausible to imagine Trump continuing to direct the Republican party while out of office.
