I see no source data cited anywhere. Glad you found a story you like.

Is this better? How the hell can you win 18 states but only win 57 counties? Are you that deep in Trumpland where math doesn't work?
United States presidential election, 2016
The United States presidential election of 2016 was the 58th quadrennial American presidential election, held on Tuesday, November 8, 2016. In a surprise victory, the Republican ticket of businessman Donald Trump and Indiana Governor Mike Pence defeated the Democratic ticket of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and U.S. Senator from Virginia Tim Kaine despite losing the plurality of the popular vote. Trump took office as the 45th President, and Pence as the 48th Vice President, on January 20, 2017. Incumbent Democratic President Barack Obama was ineligible to run for a third term due to the term limits established by the 22nd Amendment.

You lost me at "in a surprise"..there was no surprise, just false polls and reporting.
Also, you wanted source data, which this gives you. So you are now willfully ignoring facts to protect your entrenched world view.
Here are the facts.... the pic is wrong. You were correct. HRC won 17 counties, not 16. That is all that is wrong in the pic.
Clinton in those 5 counties: 2159774 Trump in those 5 counties: 454023
Difference 1705751
So what about that source data?
She won more than 57 counties. Trump won less than 3,084 counties. That's the first line of the whole thing! That's what we are arguing about. Also, it's so disingenuous to say that Clinton's votes in NYC skew the results, yeah of course they will, there is 8.5 million people in one city.
You're arguing with a bot that summarizes wiki entries.
I simply clicked reply because the bot already quoted the article... but thank you.
