Four days ago, Clinton's national popular vote lead over Trump was close to
2.2 million. Today it is over 2.5 million:

U.S. Total 65,250,267 62,686,000
--------------------------------------------------
Clinton's popular vote win is well over four times as great as Gore's
popular vote win in 2000, though around 26 million more votes were cast in
2016:

The Cook Political Report apparently presents a credible updated national
popular vote total for Trump v. Clinton 2016. Currently at this moment,
her lead is as follows:

Clinton 64,654,445 Trump 62,418,792
At the very least, emphasizing this popular vote divergence from the
electoral college Trump "win" is very important to argue against a Trump
mandate to make sweeping changes that would be against the will of a
majority of the citizens of the US.
The calls for national unity behind Trump's agenda apparently are based on
dismissing the will of the majority.
