Clinton won the overall vote by a huge margin. More people in the United States wanted her as president than Trump.
It was basically just a swing of 80,000 votes (a tiny amount) in three swing states that gave the electoral college to Trump.
If you want to blame "liberals" for that instead of people who either voted Trump or chose to stay home, go ahead, lol.
No one wins every election either. It's not like there was never ever going to be another Republican president, just as there will be another Democratic president at some point.
Some people are stupid and basically just vote on a "I'm tired of this party, so this time I'll vote for the other party" logic and flip flop on that every 4-8 years. Basically they don't really vote on any general issue, they just change parties like they change socks.

Conflict of logic.

Well the first point is not really logic, it's a fact, more people did vote for Clinton.
The second part is sure yes ... every time you have a president in power for 8 years or so there's a group of people who will automatically just vote for the "other guy" just because they feel like changing it up.
In the case of those 80,000 votes that swung the election result basically could that have been a factor? Sure I think so. That's a very small amount of the population, but when you're talking a tiny amount like this, every little bit can swing the result.
