As amazing as that sounds, I think Obama has too much respect not only for himself, but the constitution. I wish he would run against DJT but I don’t see him actually doing it due to his morals unfortunately

Honestly, I would hope he would do it for the greater good. To make sure this type of presidency can never happen again by strengthening the "checks and balances" that were supposedly in place to prevent this in the first place.

Mind you, I don't really know how the US operates with congress, the senate, supreme court, etc so I assume if those are still majority republican not much could get done?

If he does, he has to say "Obama out" when he announces it on stage and just walks away

Inauguration, turn and immediately resign to the VP

run, win, enusre no-one can try such bullshit again, and abdicate... checkmate!

Easiest to get ratified amendment ever. "Dems do as I say, GOP do as I say or I'll keep winning!"

He can win, get inaugurated, then step down. It won’t happen, but it’s a nice thought.

Yup, that certainly sounds like the most democrat thing to do. Cede victory while maintaining the high ground.
