Imagine, for a moment, President Trump staying in office past Jan. 20 even though he lost the election. Seems wild, until you realize that this was once common practice.
Before 1933, an out-going presidential administration would remain in office until March 4. It wasn’t until the ratification of the 20th Amendment during the last days of the Hoover administration that the lame-duck period for both the president and Congress was considerably shortened, ensuring that leaders voted out of office had little time to impose their whims on the American people.
