I know that after you leave office as POTUS it is some sort of unwritten rule that you withdraw from politics.
Why did Trump not withdraw?
Also why isn't he a senator or congressman during Biden's term?

He doesn’t want that. He wants to be the guy who was “wronged” in the last election.
I mean, he’s making bank off of donations just from beating that dead horse. Why work when you can just scream and cry and have people throw money at you?
Also, considering the size of his ego, he probably doesn’t want anything less than being the top guy. That’s all that matters to him.
Another poster said something about a “gentlemen’s agreement”, which isn’t wrong. The US has (generally) tried to maintain the peaceful transfer of power. They didn’t plan on a scumbag throwing a bitch fit to keep that from happening.
I suspected being a senator or congressman would be actually quiet difficult and Trump may not be cut out for it. thanks for your insight shrewbacca
No problem, fam. It’s an honest question, so I don’t blame you for asking.
