State of the art progressive thought re: Trump refusing to leave office

It’s a topic that concerns me. He is preparing his base to see any loss as illegitimate. He didn’t even accept his loss in the popular vote, almost laughably declaring n+1 fraudulent votes after losing by n.
So I think it’s a legitimate concern.
Talk me out of it.
Only non-witches get due process.

loss illegitimate
The democrats are just asking for it.
They come down on the illegitimate side of every "voting rights" issue. They consistently favor enabling fraud. There is no need for Mr. Trump to prepare his base, that is done for him.

What form do you suppose an argument might take that could plausibly talk you out of this?

If after the election we had rioting at 1% of the scale of our recent riots, (and equally ineffectual at getting anything accomplished - Trump would still leave office) you'd all declare vindication of your concerns. Meanwhile, no politics is to blame for our recent riots, only a racist cop in MN.

Liberalism was a mental disease. Liberalism is dead. It has been replaced by some sort of fascist idiocy that could only happen after the brain rot of modern liberalism had metastasized.
What I find hilarious about this particular bit of insanity is the utter delusion of the morons "over there".. actually believing they have a snowball's chance in hell of beating Trump. Hell, they're not even a national party any more.
I have watched that bunch of fools shift in their values so much over the years... no principles, just party loyalty, like the sheep they are. I can remember a time when if you even used the word Socialism in jest they'd get mad as hell, and swear on their mommy's grave they were not and never would embrace Socialism. Today they all embrace Socialism.
A bigger bunch of idiots I've never seen.

Who are you even talking to? First sentence sounded like me, but I can't believe you'd attribute the latter point of view to me.

While I haven't seen you blame any leftward politics for the rioting, I do not suspect you see the situation as basically justified, as many others with concerns about Trump leaving office do.
