Trump trying to call winning the electoral college with a below-majority popular vote a "landslide" ties into that, too. He genuinely seems unable to cope with not having won unanimously -- or having any doubt thrown on the legitimacy of his win. He's obsessed with looking more legitimate than legitimate. I recall reading an article during the campaign that pointed out this was a pattern throughout his entire life, that he'd been repeatedly trying to "prove himself" or gain entry to some social group or another that he had been excluded from -- one case in point was being a developer from the Boroughs trying to get the respect of the Manhattan upper class.
I half expect him to crack at some point and issue an Executive Order requiring all American citizens to love him.

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.
