Could Trump call a private armed militia to effectively stay in power as president?

[Hardkill]

As of December 14th, the electoral college met and ultimately awarded Biden all of the 306 electoral votes that he earned from the election, without any faithless electors. Also, earlier today, a number of GOP senators, including Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell, finally acknowledged Biden as president-elect and Harris as vice president-elect. Therefore, the US Congress, including the GOP senate will not help out Trump overturn the results on January 6th, which is when Congress meets to discussion and ultimately ratify the results of the election permanently. This all became apparent after all of the local judges all the way up to SCOTUS, all of the state officials and state legislatures, in each of the battleground states that Trump contested, made it clear that they were unable to help him manipulate the results of the election for him due to lack of sufficient logically compelling arguments and lack of concrete evidence of their being massive/nationwide voter fraud. 

Now, I know this is going to sound really crazy, but it is possible that Trump could actually raise a private armed militia who would be to effectively intimidate the US Congress covertly, including the GOP senate, to overturn the results of the election in favor of Trump?

The problem is that the constitution cannot allow this 

Nothing can save Trump 

He is too deep in the trench now.

Well, obviously it can't allow that. Though that of course wouldn't stop Trump from doing whatever it takes at all costs to successfully stay in power. Let's not forget that he got the Russians to illegally interfere in the 2016 election. Also, US History Professor Allan Lichtman said that there are two ways that Trump could possibly succeed in retaining his seat as the president: voter suppression and Russian interference. Also, well-known political commentator Van Jones said that someone like Trump might call upon a private armed militia to intimidate lawmakers to overturn the results for him.

However, what if for instance, Trump was able to hire some like mercenaries (from Russia, Proud Boys, White Supremacists, Neo-Nazis, etc.) or a bunch of enraged MAGA protestors to trespass into the living residences of all of the US Congressmen for the purposes of covertly holding them and/or their families hostage until all or at least enough US Congressmen decide to overturn the election results for Trump without the public knowing anything about this at all? I know this sounds totally like something out of a hostage thriller movie, but could or would Trump, who seems to be capable of doing virtually anything illegal to get what he wants, really do something like this?

I know this whole idea sounds totally insane, but I am really worried about this being a possibility.

@Hardkill  he can't do that. 

White supremacists are cowards. They can't do anything other than brag with a Tiki torch. 

Russia won't help Trump because they don't want to go down with a losing president

Lol, this thread is entertaining! Hardkill you should consider writing fiction. Biden is not the president elect, Jan 6th is the date set for such things.

Trump made an executive order in 2018, look it up. There is a report coming out maybe friday, look it up.

Possible that it might end up being the states electing the president, each state gets one vote.

Also, not that you will believe this but Trump is a spiritual warrior, you just don't recognize that.
