"Hey, lie just like Hillary Clinton and the rest of the establishment" is the message. After Donald Trump said he'd only accept the results of the November 8 contest if they were fair, pundits and politicians disgorged a new narrative: Trump has demeaned our "democracy" and, as coward-con John Podhoretz put it, "has earned his place in the history of American ignominy." Stick a fork in Trump--he's done. Of course, it seems as if we heard that epitaph about every two weeks during the primaries. And even making the point that Ozone Man Al Gore challenged the 2000 election doesn't deter the critics. Their not-so-clever response is that he never said before the votes were even cast that he wouldn't accept the outcome, which misses the obvious fact that Gore was never asked about the matter before the votes were cast. No doubt, though, Gore would have said he'd accept the outcome--and then challenge it, anyway. And it has been opined that Trump should have proceeded likewise and that no one would have blamed him if he later did mount a challenge.
