If he didn't know or strongly he was going to lose going in, he wasn't listening to his people with the data. As early as several months before the election, any time he was asked about what he would do if he lost, he never indicated that he would willingly leave... in fact, kind of the reverse.

You're right he thought he could just stay office and do away with elections entirely.

o people like Trump and Putin and Xi, elections are these orchestrated things that return the desired results--because if you don't get the result you want, something is obviously crooked, right?

Just like I am absolutely sure that the referendum in Belarus about letting Russia permanently station troops and have nukes there is 100% legit. Uh huh.
