I think it’s probably more simple than that. Trump is jealous that Putin has his own country and he doesn’t. In Trump’s mind he’s the best so he also needs to own an entire country just so he can outdo Putin.
He’s probably working with putin to achieve this goal, and the details we can speculate about, but the motivation is likely that petty.
Maybe the Supreme Court knows something we dont… for example some folks on the electoral college having been promised bribes… I mean “gratuities” for voting Trump in no matter what the popular vote is.
I’m not saying that’s definitely happened, but at this rate the corruption in our government has gone so far it wouldn’t surprise me in the least. Especially with the absolute crock of shit that’s been pouring out of the Supreme Courts rulings and how it’s conveniently setting them up for this, or something similar.
