The PM is PM through having the confidence of the HoC. It's a poor comparison to make with the US President, who is President by virtue of the votes of the Electoral College (notwithstanding 25th Amendment exceptional circumstances).

      But then, Littlejohn is a cock.
      Maybe I am not familiar enough with the US election process but Trump doesn't actually have to leave until the 20th?

      A delay for recounts etc has been standard previously.

      Disputing votes was a feature of the 2000 and later elections.

      What has Trump done that is illegal?

        Nobody was suggesting he left early until he incited a mob to storm the capitol as they were trying to sign off on the vote replacing him.

          Inciting insurrection that resulted in multiple deaths

          And many other crimes he did before

            Some Republican supporters in Florida staged a violent protest in Miami, calling for the recount to be stopped. Although the protesters claimed to be "local", most were later identified as Republican aides from Congress in Washington. The protest became known as the "Brooks Brothers Riot" - a nod to the smart suits and ties worn by those involved.
            Other crimes?

              He's knee deep in tax fraud, bank fraud, election fraud (the real one)

              He'll get first indictments on 21st Jan when his immunity goes away

              The best part is that he'll struggle to find good lawyers willing to represent that fat ugly POS

                He's going to pardon himself though so it's all OK.

                    Pardon does not cover state charges

                    Self-pardon will definately be challenged and overturned (after years of litigaton) - personally I hope he tries exactly that, then pardons for federal crimes would also be nullified

                      I look forward to the criminal cases.

                      Tax - he would be an unusual president if he did pay tax.
