The ravings of the Drumpf ARE intended to incite. They represent the psychopathic delusions of a sick mind. People like him usually wind up in padded cells wearing a Napoleon Bonaparte hat. What keeps him from that fate is his money and his relative clown-like fame.
I continue to think he will not make it to November, and if he keeps it up at the current pace, he won't make it to the end of August. My bet is he will end up in litigation that sends the election to the 4-4 supremes

Trump was very clearly referring to what happens AFTER Hillary gets elected (something even he seems to be realizing is very likely to occur).  Actually Rick's point demonstrates that his intention was to call for violence. After she's elected there is no vote to change who she would pick for the SCOTUS. Wolf Blitzer must have read Rick's post

Concerns with a "blow out" election. First, Paleo-conservatives will assert it was "because Trump wasn't conservative enough" despite all evidence to the contrary; second, Democrats should not be complacent; third, it is early yet, and circumstances can change; fourth, Trump's core constituency will insist it was rigged, and may, indeed, seek "Second amendment" remedies.
A well reasoned argument is like a diamond: impervious to corruption and crystal clear - and infinitely rarer.
Here, as elsewhere, people are outraged at what feels like a rigged game -- an economy that won't respond, a democracy that won't listen, and a financial sector that holds all the cards. - Robert Reich

Too early to celebrate - that's for sure. But he doesn't seem to care. In fact, he seems to want to tank.

Trump wasn't conservative enough That's actually a good thing. It means they lose again in 2020 and 2024. Let's hope they keep up the stupid racist stuff, too, in spite of the 2008 post-election autopsy.

In fact, he seems to want to tank. I'm telling you, Trump has figured out a way to come out ahead by losing. It's The Producers scenario.
