My prediction is that now that trump has fixed the dishwasher problem the June cleaver demographic is going to flock to him.
There is an article in the NYT today: "Trump is Giving Up."
First of all, I can't believe that. He is hard wired to win at any cost.
But, I wonder if he is redefining his idea of a "win"? Maybe his idea of a win is to get out of Washington and return to his world of glitz and glamour in NY and Florida and flee the battering ram of Congress and the media. I still believe he never expected, nor wanted, to win in 2016, and Melania certainly didn't want him to win.
So, I think Rob alluded to this in another thread, but maybe he is really trying to be as outrageous as possible so he doesn't get voted in? I think it's an interesting hypothesis. He still gets to keep his base (now the minority), and he might pay lip service to a "rigged election" but I believe that by that time he'll be planning his next business deal from Trump Tower and reassembling his coalition of family and friendly sycophants.

Don't think he would be campaigning as hard if he didn't want to win.
Well, there's something called self-sabotage: "Sabotage is the act of destroying or undermining something, often in a covert manner." So maybe he's doing what he's "supposed" to do, but he really doesn't want to do it, so he acts in self-defeating ways. His subconscious is driving him to lose, maybe?
