The relevant part of the 22nd amendment says, "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice", and says nothing about actually serving as president twice. What counts as being elected? It might be when the electoral college votes or the certification of the votes. On the other hand the U.S. Code defines the day of election as "The Tuesday next after the 1st Monday in November".

On the November election day the public doesn't vote directly for a president, they are voting for who will represent their state in the Electoral College. Those are the ones who officially elect the president.

Then how would they explain that Biden was president during those four years?
If you are looking for loopholes seems to me the Repubs. could do a similar one.
Have Turd Lump run as Veep since "No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice."
Then if the Repub. wins he could resign on Jan 21st the day after he gets sworn in and Turd Lump is president again!

I was expecting Obama to run as Biden's VP and then oust him with the 25
th
Amendment at some point. There's no law against gaining the Presidency by succession multiple times.

If that would have happened then I seriously doubt we would have had Turd Lump winning.
Other than what you suggest I cannot think of any other way the Dems could have won.
They were ****ed no matter who they put up since it is popular for the opposition to win if the other side doesn't do so good.

Define elected. Surely that isn't winning the election but being declared the winner. Those should never be two different things, but when they are, being "declared the winner" would be considered being "elected."
Get out of that one, smart ass.
