If he is in the White House he would be as relevant as a cockroach. Nobody would follow any of his orders. Critical parts of the White House would steadily be blocked off to him until he makes an exit. The White House staff would do nothing for him -- even cook his meals or do his laundry. News media would pay no attention to him. Whatever Internet access he has would be cut off promptly so there would be no more tweets from him. Nobody would deliver anything. There would be no deliveries to him. If Joe Biden prefers some beverage other than Diet Coke, then there will be no more Diet Coke at the White House until Trump leaves.
Should he leave for any reason-- let us say a medical reason, then such might be accommodated. So he goes to Walter Reade... but he does not get a return to the White House. He would be the ultimate persona non grata.
There would be all sorts of tricks played upon him such as that there might be a special meeting of NATO for him to attend. Maybe Marine 1 takes him to a mental institution.
Mar a Lago will look very good for the President very fast, especially should there be a nasty cold wave around the first of February.

The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
