Also, talk at this juncture is cheap. Trump ceases to be president at noon on 20 January 2021 regardless of any political declaration by anyone.

As things stand, the States will send their electors who will vote by a majority to make Biden the formal president-elect. The only thing that can possibly prevent that is an unprecedented intervention by the Supreme Court, which would have to set aside an enormous number of ballots to make any material difference to the outcome of the election.

As with so much in US politics, it’s all theatre for consumption by the faithful, and in the case of senior republicans half of them will now be wondering exactly what they have to do to get the party nomination in 2024, given Trump is now free to pursue it himself if he wishes.
