From Presidents Trump perspective (an extreme Narcissist):

- He would say he hasn't done anything wrong. Blame is the name here. So sure he might quit but it would only be because other people weren't cooperating. More likely he's going to be pardoning everyone and his own narcissism would make sure he breaks everything around him first.

- As stated in other posts resigning actually makes him more vulnerable and admits defeat. When has Trump ever admitted defeat? He has been in tight spots in the past and came out on top. That's what his supporters like about him and what he will do. So the only way for him to resign is if it's a big win for him. Maybe a health issue or something like that.

- Most important: There is no upside to him in resigning. None at all. More likely he'll just spend a lot of time at his resort.
