WSUS - Server 2012 R2

Is the error when you run this from the console, or from RSAT tools from another machine?

Based on this my guess would be the firewall is block connections locally. . . .
I agree. I would definitely disable the firewall to see if it resolves it.

Using the local console via RDP. Can't open WSUS and have it connect.
-
Yet this is saying the firewall isn't the issue. . .
And the firewall has exceptions for the WSUS ports. . .
-
I could delete the file at %appdata%\Microsoft\MMC called "wsus" but I don't know if that is actually the issue.

@dustinb3403 - If it isn't, the only problem is that you will have to recreate your custom update views, if you have any. So it won't hurt to try
Edit: These are what I am referring to -

Nope, removing the file simply removed the connection with MMC so now I don't even see the WSUS server (from which I'm running MMC and WSUS)
And I can't connect to the WSUS from MMC on this WSUS server. . . .
-
Not that I saw the server, but I saw the server and had the error in the OP.
-
Restoring the file gets me back to the error in the OP.

Open MMC, File Add/Remove Snap-in > update services..
Now you've created a new one.

That works, but im still unable to connect to the WSUS server (localhost, or ip or by fqdn)
-

What is the status of the actual Windows Firewall service?

Try restarting IIS, SQL and update services
Which I've done and the error above in the code block.

Site can't be reach on either 8530 or 8531

@dustinb3403 Does it give you a 403 or does it give page can't be displayed?
