Trump had a [[Go (game)]] strategy and won more territory/states which gave him the election in the electoral college. In Go, the object of the game is to control more space/territory through strategy/tactics. There is a lot more red on the map than blue.

Like Vietnam, the Go strategy won over the chess strategy.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZHXrJuu3TI] :) If only Hillary had read more of [[Sun Tzu]]'s the Art of War and spent less time giving paid speeches. :) [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]]) 11:09, 13 November 2016 (EST)

:Hillary Clinton's strategy was a classic case of fighting the last war. Romney was less well-known so hammering away at this reputation via adds was more effective. But Trump's reputation was more firmly in place given his celebrity status.
:By the way, Trump was very unpredictable. Has Trump read Sun Tzu? :) 11:24, 13 November 2016 (EST)
