How do states, Congress, and SCOTUS officially “recognize him as president”?
Besides that, the Constitution says that the POTUS can’t execute the office of the presidency unless and until they have made a specific oath. Everybody in the world could recognize him as president whether or not he makes the oath, but he would not Constitutionally be able to execute the duties of the office until he’s done the oath.
He refuses to show any proof that he’s done it. Says he did it privately without witnesses and won’t show anybody the tape. Who would decide whether or not the requirement of the oath had been made? What procedure would be used to decide that? Where is that procedure authorized?

All states were satisfied he was eligible. True, their standards were way below mine, but everyone did place him on the ballot. They also could pass a law requiring a candidate for President to have two citizen parents to go on their ballot in 2012, which would force the federal courts to rule on the meaning of NBC, since the Indiana courts have ruled otherwise.
Any member of Congress COULD have objected in writing to the election, and none did. Therefor, the Congress was content. No member of Congress has tried to introduce a law mandating two citizen parents.
And the SCOTUS has refused every case offered, administered the oath of office, and two members were nominated by Obama with no objection from the Court.
