Ok I’ve been doing some research on what the procedure might be should a sitting President refuse to relinquish the Office of President of the United States of America.
With regard to his failure in acknowledgment that he lost the election due to yet to be ratified results.....its bunkum !
Trump himself doesn’t have to acknowledge anything. The Legislature and the Judiciary do that and that would be enough to see a winning presidential candidate declared the winner.
Having declared a winner he can then be sworn in without having to set foot in The White House.
Trump then becomes a normal citizen as article 2 section 1 of the constitution states that a Presidents term officially ends when the new President has been sworn in.
The previous President then loses all privileges of office and is considered a citizen again.
Thus subject to the rule of law. So if necessary could be evicted

@Picklebobble2 And that is exactly what will happen, in spite of anything Trump or his supporters say or do. Trumps Alamo is that Pence refuses to annouce the official result on January 6. Even if Pence really had an option. Captain Bonespurs AGAIN shot himself in the foot with his phone to Georgia. Any hope Pence has of clinging to a legacy of principle rests on him doing his assigned duty now and following the established will of the people.😷
