You sound like you believe that Trump will act rationally, with careful consideration.

I don't. I just believe that nearly everyone else in the system will act far more rationally.

Remember, the wisdom of our system is that the President has very, very little role in elections. There's no federal department of elections, there's no direct federal control over elections processes, and not a ton of federal influence on the actual mechanics of voting. It doesn't matter very much whether the President acts rationally or not, because most of the people who are important to how elections are actually run are state officials or have lifetime appointments.
