306 Electoral College votes made it a resounding victory for President Trump,  validating once again the sublime wisdom of the American Founding Fathers in building in proportional restraint against the political tyranny of hyper-partisan states with large populations.

The  will of the people is often disdained by the coterie of ruling and administrative classes, for the simple   reason that in a free society, the people get to   toss out the rulers every so often, by way of the ballot box. Thus,  the rulers prefer  that the ordinary folk maintain a substantial inferiority complex, less these deplorables and irredeemable rise up and smote their betters.
