The current Congress ends on December 31 or at it’s last adjournment, whichever comes first.
They don’t get “over time”.

As said before, the Constitution must be suspended for any of these scenarios to see the light of day.
The electoral status of Congress on January 20 is of NO consequence.
A Constitutional crisis exists if any ONE branch is not decided.
The only person authorized to suspend the Constitution in the time of crisis is POTUS.
On that event, POTUS -STAYS- POTUS until such time the Constitution is re-instituted.
Trump would remain POTUS until such time the election is satisfied.
