Explanation:

They do not repel each other due to a thing called Quantum Chromodynamics.

The protons and neutrons in the nucleus experience the Strong Nuclear Force.

This is one of the 4 fundamental forces in the Universe.

The way we explain how the force works on the quantum level, is through a theory called Quantum Chromodynamics.Protons interact in ways that electrons do not. ...

Electrons are not affected by the strong force, and so they only get trapped by the electrical attraction to the nucleus which is much weaker in ionized atoms.

Therefore it is easier for electrons to move away from one atom to another, transferring charge.

Hello friend!

It's true that like charges repel each other and unlike charges attract each other and we can't deny the fact that nucleus of an atom is stable despite it is positively charged. The reason behind this is, there is a force called "Strong nuclear force". this force binds the particles together and it has nothing to do with charges.

The range of strong nuclear force is 10^-15 m, which is very small and the protons as well as neutrons are present in this range hence, the can't overcome the force and nucleus becomes stable.
