Money is not, even now, the only factor that matters when it comes to power and politics.
The Hilary campaign in sum (as far as anyone can tell) outspent the Trump campaign by 2:1.

This is true. While military strength, money, control of resources, etc, have always been important (and probably always will be), public opinion has been a factor in international relations since the time of the french revolution.
It's also because those with money have been getting what they wanted for so long, that they didn't expect much resistance this time either.
But they still have the power, they just can't go and openly revert the voting results. They took their lessons for next time though, and they wont let anything like this happen again...
