66million to 63million. The message sent is that this country is historically divided.
The fact that neither candidate got close to 50% says that as a whole the country didn't want either major party candidate.
The fact that Trump won the electoral college says he gets to sit in the White House and be president.
The fact that Trump gets to be President, and the fact that the house and senate are both controlled by republicans says that the laws that are passed by both houses and sent to him will likely be signed into law.
That's the facts of how this country works. It's the same when the Democrats held both legislative houses and the presidency which last happened when Pres Obama took office.
