ouch!

Even if she ends up with a 10 million vote margin, it will not make
one bit of difference beyond illustrating that Trump does not have
overwhelming national popular support.


It means that Trump had support from a majority of states since he won
the EC.

Yes, when the Electoral College votes, odds are that he will take a
majority of those votes.

However, Trump cannot truthfully claim a national popular mandate of
individual citizens. Fortunately for Trump, the only reason he needs
a national popular mandate is to assuage his fragile ego.
