The fact that he's a narcissistic asshat had nothing to do with, right?

Trump and Nixon are worlds apart: Nixon tried to fix an election that he didn't need to, and Trump is claiming that an election he won was rigged so that he couldn't.
Hmm...maybe not so different after all...

And I'll be very surprised if Trump can govern himself, much less a country. And finally, the possibilities for corruption at Trump's disposal entirely eclipse Harding's, who is widely regarded as the most corrupt President in American history.
He may not be able to govern, but he seems determined to maximize damage. Harding hardly showed any similar resolve.
When you're out only for yourself, the road to Hell is paved with your own intentions. Harding's resolve was likely the same as Trump's is: show me the money, Jerry. SHOW ME THE MONEY.

This clearly a fallacy

That's just silly
Well, considering what the rebulitraiors were doing to the votes in states they controlled (lets just say that recriminalising "voting while black" in c30 states is not beyond the bounds of possibility by 2018, given what they've done so far), the pre election polls showing a Clinton landslide were more accurate than the published results.
In Michigan we've got republitraitors refusing to hand count the votes despite numbers and distribution of spoilage which show, at best, voting machines not fit for purpose (frankly the pattern is a strong indication that the voting process was deliberately queered). They're not going to return to the democratic process in two years time.

He is at best Caligula without the pedigree or loyalty of the army. Although the intelligence and the secret services seem to be taking cues from Caligula' praetorian guards.
After the election trump made a show of wanting to keep his private security, and keep the secret service at arm's length. Similar desires to rely on his private German bodyguards while keeping the praetorian guards at arm's length did not save Caligula.
