When he first took office, I saw a report that he got angry when people told him the *real* poll numbers and economic reports, etc, so they started telling him stuff that wouldn't make him mad (ie, lies). For four years, he thought he was super popular and everyone loved him and everything he did. Keep in mind that he has full-blown malignant narcissistic personality disorder (among other things, obvs), and actually believes he can, like, fix health care because he's Donald Trump (he decided he didn't want to, bkz it was too hard). His ability (and need) to piss people off and gin up controversy is really his only ability.
One thing that Trump didn't seem to get in the last election was that there were Republicans who voted R down ballot, but didn't vote for him. When he saw the other Republican candidates won in areas and he didn't, he assumed Dems were changing votes at the top. He should have asked himself, though, if we changed his votes, why wouldn't we change the down-ballot votes too?

He doesn't have the mental bandwidth for things that happen to people that aren't him.
