It would definitely harm Trump and the GOP even more among educated suburbanites especially. But still, maybe only North Carolina flips in both the House and Senate. That's probably the only major difference that would have been possible. Maybe Ossoff also wins outright. However, Biden performs much better in the major swing states and wins the popular vote by 6 points or so perhaps. Also the House races go much better for the Democrats.
However, this is a hypothetical that is impossible because the insurrection was a product of the election's result entirely. The closest thing we actually to it was the Gretchen Whitmer/Mike DeWine foiled kidnapping plots and those were barely a blip on the radar by the time of election day, as shocking as they should have been.
