But those looking to the nation's Founders, or the Constitution they framed, for answers to such a crisis will come up empty-handed. There is nothing in the Constitution about what to do if a president refuses to step down when his term expires, according to three historians and a constitutional law professor.
"No, the Framers did not envisage a president refusing to step down or discuss what should be done in such a situation," said Yale historian Sean Wilentz. "There's obviously nothing in the Constitution about it."

The left cares about the constitution....
Just like how the left cares about Christianity right before they sentence a murderer to death they drag out “thou shalt not kill”.... even though themselves advocate the killing of innocent babies...
And all of the sudden, the Rats have necessary interest in those slave-owning, gun-toting, Bible-thumping White guys.
Fantasy.
President has not refused to step down.
Electoral College hasn’t voted. Inauguration day hasn’t happened.
Divorced from reality.
Nor did the founders make a place for someone declaring himself king. Unless you count the second admendment.
The Founders never thought one of the Political Parties would be SO EVIL as to try to destroy the US
The above is actually a bigger deal than a President justifiably uncovering voter fraud.

In case you haven’t noticed, Legally, President Trump is still our President, and will be until January 20th, 2021.
Check out the Constitution for more information.
They also did not prepare for dishonest voting.
This person joined two days ago. Is laughing at responses.
Needs to go.
Wake me when he refuses after his last official day (assuming the steal is successful). Otherwise this is just nonsense.
These purveyors of seditious perfidy and traitorous behavior are “concerned”? Hopefully, they will end up in prison for their many and continuing crimes.
Fortunately the Founders DID prepare for a would-be president that tries to steal an election.
Namaste.
Welcome to Free Republic.
Try posting something supportive.
Trump has never said he would not step down if he lost in a fair and not fraudulent election.
He does not have to concede nor does he have to make you or anyone happy until January of 2021.
Funny, as yet no President has refused to relinquish
the office.
This is a projection of the democrat party going
all the way back to 2016...
Baseless as the media is so fond of using.
What has President Trump done that’s illegal or unconstitutional???
Please explain or head back to Democrat Underground where you came from....
