What if games. Hmmmmm. What if Biden keels over dead in the next two weeks. Kamala couldn’t be sworn in because she was not elected to the office. So would Trump continue until a special election were held?

Yes she could. If the president dies, the vice-president becomes president. Article II.

Unless something changes the current election results then Trump is out of office at noon on January 20th. There is nothing in the Constitution that allows for special elections for the president or for remaining in office once his term is over.
