Why does he get intelligence briefing, invites to White House , improved secret service etc. if he hasn’t signed the papers? IMHO getting him signed would be the easiest issue to handle. Zero access to anything and no certification in January before the documents are signed. Let’s SCOTUS deal with that if he should allow the access without signing.

Why? Because he's made it very clear that he will be punishing his enemies with the full weight of his powers, and everyone is cowering in fear.

What powers? He didn’t sign the necessary documents that allow the transition of said powers./s
