The White House wouldn't have held a super spreader event and Trump would not have gotten hospitalised as a result. Provided he could avoid getting Covid until after the election, his margin is just under 1% better-so he wins Arizona, Georgia, and barely Wisconsin. This means neither Biden or Trump receive the 270 electoral votes needed to win but get 269 each, so the election goes to the House. There, no races go differently, and despite the Democratic majority, a majority of House delegations vote to re-elect Trump. On a uniform swing, David Perdue would have won a majority without a runoff and so the Senate would elect Mike Pence as Vice President.
Of course, without the butterfly elect, the effect of the RBG vacancy was minimal and it just made people even angrier and energised on both sides.
