Hillary Clinton won the popular vote by over a million, there is no great reckoning to do. Democrats ignored just enough of white middle class workers to lose by very razor thin margins in three states that are always blue, and they moved too fast on all the societal changes that many would have accepted over a longer period of time but it came at them too quickly and they got scared.
The Democrats will re-embrace the working class whites and in two years they will retake the Congress. p.o.trump will be a one term piece.of.shit and this foray into the most joker-like mental recesses of the conservative leper colony will be tossed aside.
Lessons to be learned and corrected but the Democrat candidate got more votes, except in a few specific spots where the tiniest of numbers of people felt left out enough to vote for the piece.of.shit or for no one rather than the Democrat candidate.
Be clear though, the next two years will be some of the bloodiest on the streets of America since the civil rights movement. Pucker up cons, all the tea is going to be in the harbor burning.
