I don't think Trump is going to maintain power past a defeat in the election (and in that sense I agree that the article is hyperbolic), but I do think there's danger of Trump not acknowledging the results of the election.

I'm worried about the fallout from forcibly removing Trump from power; Am I going to be arguing with family members over Thanksgiving about whether the democrats "stole" the presidency? How could this be spun by pundit media outlets like Fox to whip up the nationalistic peaks of Trump's base? If there's an armed force of citizens removing him from power as you suggest, are we contending with the military? How does the military decide who to follow - will there be a rift in our armed forces over who to support as president even if the law is clear on the matter? Do we host a contingent election if things are looking grim enough?

I completely agree with the spirit of your comment - if Trump continues to physically occupy the residence after his term, he will have to be physically removed. To pull kleinbl00's comment into this, the odds that his followers stick by him seem pretty slim to me as well...But Trump himself is a fucking moron, and if he doesn't transfer power peacefully, what happens? Best case scenario in my mind is that he's physically removed and tried for treason. It also seems likely that he'd just become a private citizen spouting some bullshit akin to his birther movement, except with the rhetoric of, "I should be president!" Worst case scenario, people actually listen to him.

Maybe I don't need to be worried. I hope I'm being nervous for no good reason. But my faith in Trump and his followers (both citizen and senator) to follow the rule of law could not be lower, and I can't make myself stop feeling nervous.
