The original install failed with the status code STATUS_DLL_NOT_FOUND (0xC0000135), as reported in "Python 3.5.3 (32-bit)_20170217102132_008_pip_JustForMe.log":

Did your system require a reboot for Python 3.5 to work?

>From what I can see in "Python 3.5.3 (32-bit)_20170217131555_007_pip_JustForMe.log", it looks like the repair skipped installing pip. 

    MSI (s) (D8:1C) [13:16:31:822]: Skipping action: SetRemovePipCommandLine (condition is false)
    MSI (s) (D8:1C) [13:16:31:822]: Skipping action: SetUpdatePipCommandLine (condition is false)
    MSI (s) (D8:1C) [13:16:31:822]: Skipping action: UpdatePip (condition is false)
    MSI (s) (D8:1C) [13:16:31:822]: Doing action: InstallFinalize
    MSI (s) (D8:1C) [13:16:31:822]: Note: 1: 2205 2:  3: ActionText 
    Action ended 13:16:31: PublishProduct. Return value 1.

Maybe Steve Dower can shed light on why a repair with pip selected didn't try to install pip.
