Someone has to hold executive power in that eventuality. Trump’s view would be that should be him.
Other countries have suspended their constitutions to extend the rule of a President beyond their initial term. Is there protection against this in the United States? What if that mechanism can’t meet safely?

I can’t think of a country (in this Century) that has suspended their Constitution to "extend the rule of a President beyond their initial term" - I know of one country where the Constitution explicitly allows the delaying of Elections under Parliamentary-approved Martial Law, which legally extends the term of the Parliament and the Head of State until the end of Martial Law.
