Trible, you have 1 hour? (20-30 minutes of pure time)? We will resolve this interactively. Of not I will be unable to help you in future, but I believe some will do it after some time.

no problem I have the time.
Let’s start. I typing now…

Let’s recreate all keys from the scratch:
- We will remove all junk keys/files you have.
- We will add temporary keys.
- We will install fresh packages.
- Will remove temp keys and install all keys from both Archlinux and Manjaro jeyring into you local machine keyring.
1st Stage:
Enter this:
sudo pacman -Scc
answer y everywhere.
Then
sudo rm -r /etc/pacman.d/gnupg
Then
sudo rm /usr/share/pacman/keyrings/*
Show the output of:
ls -A1 /usr/share/pacman/keyrings/*
is it empty?
this is the output:
~
❯ sudo pacman -Scc
Cache directory: /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
:: Do you want to remove ALL files from cache? [y/N] y

Database directory: /var/lib/pacman/
:: Do you want to remove unused repositories? [Y/n] Y

~
❯ sudo rm -r /etc/pacman.d/gnupg
~
❯ sudo rm /usr/share/pacman/keyrings/*
~
❯ ls -A1 /usr/share/pacman/keyrings/*
ls: cannot access '/usr/share/pacman/keyrings/*': No such file or directory
a bit correction:
show the
ls -A1 /usr/share/pacman/keyrings/
please
no output
❯ ls -A1 /usr/share/pacman/keyrings/
~
❯
Empty. good.
sudo pacman-mirrors --api --set-branch stable --proto https --country Germany
I know, you could be not in Germany, but to be sure please switch known-to-be-many-and-good servers. later we will switch back to country you prefer.

Got several servers?
Saw it. Perfect.
No need to post output. I will ask you if it need, just in case do not clear the console content for now.
Stage 2.
sudo pacman-key --init

sudo pacman -Sy manjaro-keyring archlinux-keyring
press y there to import 2 PGP keys.
After that you will see the prompt to save or to remove the packages, not matter you answer y/n there.
Got errors again, what do I answer?
