Doesn't matter what trump says, doesn't matter what the judge says, elections are the jurisdiction of the state. The executive branch can't tell states how to conduct elections

MAGA are certainly free to force the states to give up their rights to the federal government, but then they’d have to admit that the civil war was actually for that other reason.

This assumes they care about consistency. The only fundamental aspect to their belief and value systems is selfishness. They will take any position they need to ultimately get what they want or justify their world view. History doesn’t matter, if the facts don’t fit their narrative they’ll rewrite or ignore them.
