It doesn’t matter if he refuses, once the next guy is sworn in trump would no longer have any presidential power. Articles like this are fear mongering gas lighting.
I disagree. It’s an projection from positions in Project 2025, Trump’s own desire for presidential immunity, the No More Political Prosecutiins Act and his admitted wish to be a dictator (for a day).
He did an insurrection. SCOTUS is still thinking about if Presidents are accountable to the law or not. Like how many more steps do you think are between a beer hall putsch and a night of long knives? Please get a clue.
Your party doesn’t think he committed insurrection. Garland has yet to bring charges for it. They may talk about Jan6 as if they believe it meant something but their inaction illustrates the dog and pony show that it is
The subject YOU brought up was insurrection. I pointed out your government does not think it was insurrection, otherwise they would have charged him with it. They’ve had over 3 years, and nothing
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.

That assumes nothing would happen to prevent the “next guy” from being sworn in.
Or that there will be a next guy at all. He could cancel the elections. Make himself president for life.
We are talking about future trump. What does for life even mean in that context. If he survives to finish his term I’ll be surprised.
In this scenario, he could just name a successor
That’s nothing but hyperbole bullshit.

Strawman and changing the subject, good stuff.

Have you been living in a cave the last four years?
His supporters surround the White House and storm the Capitol.
The generals don’t want a shoot-out at the White House as many of his supporters are armed.
What does the newly-elect do?
Make like Mussolini
Flatten it? That would solve both Trump and his moron following.

…Take his barely veiled threats seriously…
