    But what if Trump’s henchmen refuse to certify the election results where he lost, and refuse to swear in the new guy? Does the new guy get sworn in by a splinter group thereby locking the country with 2 non functional presidents? (Giving Trump even more opportunity to spout more lies that the election was a fraud and the opposing president is trying to take over the country, declaring martial law “for the sake of the country”)

    Ofcourse Trump is not going to leave, it will always be a severe downgrade for him if he leaves, he’ll lose so much status, power and opportunity to do what he wants, and gains a chance he loses his freedom/money if he did not get to give himself a get out of jail free card somehow…

    He’ll die in the saddle, or make sure someone within his family will take the throne so Trump can stay shielded 'till he dies.

    …Take his barely veiled threats seriously…
