Donald Trump won the popular vote in the 2016 United States presidential election.
Explanation
The answer is false because in the 2016 United States presidential election, Donald Trump did not win the popular vote. Although he won the Electoral College vote and secured the presidency, his Democratic opponent, Hillary Clinton, actually won the popular vote. Clinton garnered nearly 2.9 million more votes than Trump, receiving around 48.2% of the popular vote compared to Trump's approximately 46.1%. Despite this, due to the electoral system in the United States, Trump became the 45th President of the United States.
