She won the popular vote by 3+ million, more Americans wanted her as president than Trump, even if she wasn't a great candidate by any means. Terrible public speaker for one. Even the whole electoral college thing ... the three states that flipped on her were Pennsylvania - 44,292 votes in favor for Trump Michigan - 10,704 Wisconsin - 22,700 That's basically 77,000 people that tilted the election in favor of Trump in three generally solid Democrat states. If those 77,000 people voted the other way or stayed home, she wins both the popular vote and the electoral college. Clinton did not campaign enough in those areas, but those 77,000 people basically upended the 3+ million that preferred Clinton as candidate. For Democrats at least there's solace there, there's a good chance they flip back Penns, Michigan, and Wisconsin blue next time around because Trump is not going to have the "aw, what the heck, lets vote for this unknown commodity" going for him.

If you don't like it, blame the DNC. They're the ones that barred people from voting for a Democrat that wasn't an absolute joke.
