Some of your fellow fraylibs made the same prediction about GW Bush.

I half-expected Bush '43 to issue a slew of blanket preemptive pardons on his way out the door to cover himself and everyone else in his Administration for absolutely everything, but. . .stick around? Past the end of his term? On purpose? No freaking way. By the time Inauguration Day rolled around, Bush '43 looked like he was about ready to fly Marine One our of there himself if he had to.
