But didn't Hillary get more votes for president than anyone in history, including Trump?
I guess so, but the population is constantly growing so that's to be expected in general. The real problem for her was she didn't get out the vote in those usually reliable blue states, what they termed the Democrats firewall. She ignored them in the campaign. She won the popular vote but she didn't win them where she needed to win them. The margins were very small, less than 1.3% of the vote, but Trump won them with the exception of Wisconsin (Michigan?).
