Trump won’t care at all about future elections once he’s out of office. He cares about himself (nothing wrong with that. Most people do) and he’s just upset he lost to “the worst candidate in history”.

If Trump had won by these narrow margins, would he still be looking into irregularities that may have led to him winning?

I think this is all for show and to show his cult like following that he’s still “fighting for them” as they give him more money.

The money part is what I was alluding to. How do people give Trump money?

There are many ways people can give Trump money.  

For example, just a couple of weeks ago he set up his own PAC, the Save America PAC.  Then he started asking people to contribute to his "Election Defense Fund."  The fine print on the Election Defense Fund website says the money actually goes to the Save America PAC.  Trump controls the Save America Pac, so he can spend the money it takes in as he sees fit.  He can hire himself to run it, he can hire his kids, he can practically do whatever he wants with the money.

“This is a slush fund. That’s the bottom line,” said Paul S. Ryan, a longtime campaign finance attorney with the good government group Common Cause. “Trump may just continue to string out this meritless litigation in order to fleece his own supporters of their money and use it in the coming years to pad his own lifestyle while teasing a 2024 candidacy.”

[font=FreightText, Georgia, serif]Save America is a type of campaign committee that is often referred to as a “leadership PAC,” which has higher contribution limits — $5,000 per year — and faces fewer restrictions on how the money is spent. Unlike candidate campaign accounts, leadership PACs can also be tapped to pay for personal expenses.[/font]
