What kind of defeat is 'a far shallower defeat'?
Eight years after Republicans united after a stinging electoral defeat to oppose President Barack Obama, Democrats are channeling an even deeper anxiety over President Trump — and a far shallower defeat — into a newfound burst of organizing. _________________ Hiromichi |

I would guess they are referring to the fact (it's a fact despite what Trump thinks!) that Hillary Clinton got around 3 million votes more than Trump, so the defeat was not strong. |
