I know that after you leave office as POTUS it is some sort of unwritten rule that you withdraw from politics.
Why did Trump not withdraw?
Also why isn't he a senator or congressman during Biden's term?

How is SC seat a demotion? The only real power the president has is wartime, and Americans aren't fond of war especially if it has a chance to end up at their borders.

In addition to the veto power mentioned above, there's also the power to issue executive orders and to nominate judges, including supreme justices. Those are fairly significant. There's also the influence they have over foreign policy.
