Well, 3/4 of the US would be perfectly happy to agree not to do election just because Trump asked, so they only have to stop them in certain places. And even in those states its only a couple counties that don’t already vote for Trump. Look at a county level election result map and you will suddenly see a pretty achievable military objective.
Most Americans are not interested in what you describe. There is an absolutely huge swing (about 30 percentage points) towards Democrats in recent special elections.
Also, the penalty for a state skipping an election is that they don’t get represented in Congress. So it’s just fine if Republican-run states dont hold elections but Democratic-leaning ones do
