Get ready for Trump, the shadow president

We know for a fact President-elect Joe Biden won the 2020 election, but I don’t think Donald Trump is going anywhere.
Over the last two weeks and change, the Trump has refused to acknowledge that he lost the election, instead stoking conspiracy theories and latching onto half-baked legal challenges in a desperate attempt to maintain legitimacy.
With his party and many key government officials marching in virtual lockstep behind him, what the president is attempting to do could have rightfully been called a coup.
But late Monday, the General Services Administration declared Biden as the official winner and signed off on beginning the presidential transition of power. While seemingly everyone assumed Trump would rather be dragged out of the White House, Trump signaled that he supported the GSA decision, for the first time, it seems, implicitly acknowledging he did not win a second term in office. It’s clear Trump is looking at a transition of his own — into a president-in-exile.

But Trump can still leverage the political power of his large supporter base by carrying on his sideshow Twitter antics, transforming himself into the de facto leader of the Biden opposition. Trump has already suggested he plans to run for president again in 2024 and rumors have been floated that he may start his own cable news channel or Fox News may pay out to hire him. This way he can continue to hold his beloved rallies, and manipulate the national politics reporters who have devoted the last four years of their lives to extensively reporting the president’s every word, deed, and tweet.
Trump has primed the nation for his exile by insisting without evidence the election was stolen from him. That, along with his solid supporter base, would prime him for his new role as opposition leader.
