If I had to guess, There were probably 2 million votes in LA county that
were not legal votes (illegal alien, double votes, etc) Take those away
and maybe DJT won LA county. Wouldn't that be a trip!

This is an interesting map that shows geographic distribution of the vote
winners by county:

election-2016-county-map.png?w=600
The article with it is somewhat interesting but seems to have a bit of
bias:
http://metrocosm.com/election-2016-map-3d/
I saw a comment from someone that said if the blue areas prevailed it
would be sorta like a "Hunger Games" kind of situation where the elite
metro areas basically controlled the rest of the country, the residents of
whom would basically have no say in the matter if not for the electoral
college arrangement.
The article says:
As with most maps that represent information using color, red/blue
election maps are great for communicating categorical data (in this case,
/which candidate won county X?/). But they don’t do a very good job
conveying magnitude <http://metrocosm.com/category/cartograms/> (/how
important is county X compared to other counties?/).
For example, *L.A. County <http://metrocosm.com/how-many
-u-s-cities-can-you-fit-inside-tokyo/>* alone has a population of over
*10 million*. That’s more than the combined population of 10 entire states.
*Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota,
Alaska, North Dakota, Vermont,* and *Wyoming* together have a total
population of just over *9 million*?
Which says that LA County could basically be the key to a Clinton "win"
since the margin is like 1.5M votes at this point, and I think her margin
was larger than that in LA County? And LA County would basically negate
the votes of 10 states that comprise a very large geographic area though
low-density.

Winston Churchill:
“Never give in--never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or
petty,
never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense.
Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the
enemy.”
