What the hell makes him think he'll be president again? If he loses the election he won't be president. If he wins the election Biden can just refuse to leave office. It's legal because everything a president does is legal. There is litterally a case before the SC where Trump is making that argument.

Supreme Court is dragging their feet on that decision. Probably not gonna decide til after the election. If Trump wins they'll decide presidents get total immunity, but if Biden wins they shoot it down.

The big funny would be if they decided that Trump was legal before Biden left office. The lights would go out when they came back on a lot of people would be disappeared.

Biden wouldn't do that. Granting total immunity would end US democracy, so I'd like to see Biden firing shots from the bow of the rapidly sinking ship. But I doubt it would turn out like that.

Not the craziest take I've read since losing harambee

Biden would have to do that, which seems doubtful.
