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 On the graphic to the right, there is a lot more red blue on the map than bluered.
Clinton had more of a chess strategy. She relied more on negative campaigning and the press hammering away at Trump via negative coverage/editorializing (It caused more and more sacrificing of pieces of her and Trump's reputation since Trump is a counter puncher. Kind of a war of attrition when it came to their reputations. In chess, sacrificing pieces is a strategy and is kind of a war of attrition).
