Trump Wins!

They did it. The American people. They secured the future of the nation and elected Donald J. Trump to be our 47th President of the United States. It took the conscience and heart and patriotism of everyone to accomplish it. Black Americans, white Americans, Arab Americans, Mexican Americans, Jewish Americans, all Americans. Not only did the American people elect Donald J. Trump to be our president, they did so with a clear and undeniable mandate that cannot be disputed, even taking the popular vote, the Senate and potentially keeping the House. The things that matter are the riches beneath us that we can tap into, securing our border, and fighting for freedom and democracy, which Trump's administration will do among many other things. As Trump said, "America is the greatest country in the world, it's in bad shape, she needs us, and we will fix it."

As of this morning Trump has 277 electoral votes and will likely secure over 300 and has 5 million more votes than Harris in the popular vote tallies.

@porwest Funny how some perceive the USA. But I can understand it. I watched the BBC and SKY NEWS to see how they were covering it. British and Australian networks. Completely biased against Trump and unwilling to accept the election results. Actually, unwilling to put up the winning electoral votes for Trump even when the NYT had already done so. So, those from other countries are propagandized too. No wonder what they speak are the foreign medias talking point lies.

Wait and see? What are you talking about? It's done. lol. Harris cannot secure enough electoral votes even if she somehow managed to take the remaining states which she is losing. There is zero path to victory for Harris right now. The election is over and Trump will be the 47th president. There is nothing to wait and see about that.

It will now be time for the American people to come together and get this country back on the right track. Trump, with the help of patriotic Americans, will accomplish that. That is all that matters. We cannot continue to live with inflation, raging wars, high poverty, eroding median income, high crime and looting, open borders, high gas and energy prices and the list goes on. Now we won't have to.

@dgobucks226 I mean it was clear that when Biden dropped out and she was asked to run. she's like 'okay. And Americans accepted her as the democratic nominie.

@porwest Americans were not going to accept another flawed candidate. The Dems could not pull off another sleight of hand tick on voters. No Covid disruption this time, no candidate in the basement, and the media propaganda machine fell on enough deaf ears it did not affect the majority of Americans. She had no vision, policies of her own, or capability whether a man or women. Just a DEI candidate plain and simple!

Her entire campaign was a complete fraud, the going after Trump the way they did backfired, I think the gig was up before it ever started when we start really seeing the numbers here, so the media was pretty much completely lying to us as well. NO ONE bought it.

@2ndchances24 Looks like the American people have already decided to do that. We took back the Senate and it looks like we will keep the House, so it's a landslide win for Republicans. The American people kicked the Democrats completely out of power, and the Senate majority is strong enough that Democrat votes won't be able to stop the Trump agenda. The voters made it VERY clear. The Democrats simply did not get the job done and fired them, as it SHOULD be. This was a red wave of significant proportion.

The Democrats got the biggest message out of this. Whether or not they recognize it, is another question. They spent their entire time bashing Trump while burning down the country and they thought people would not pay attention to all the crap that was happening. They are going to need a serious strategy shift. The Republicans took back the Senate and it looks like we may keep the House, so pretty much, the Democrats lost everything. Their entire strategy backfired on them, and bigly.

@porwest Here's what she had to say which is so par for the course & this is what people say is so like her (this was what I had to say on the video) The 1st 3 mins of her speech says it all, that nothing comes to mind to change the way they have done the American people & our troops. Not to mention the whole damn country flooding every state with illegal migrants from across the globe, which I thought was as illegal as hell & all the lies they got by with, that's not right or fair So PLEASE can someone tell me why on planet earth any 1 is falling apart at the seams cause she & them LOST ? ? I'm thrilled.

@porwest - She had no chances to win, Biden is to blame, he was stubborn and he wanted to run again. The Democrats lied about his mental problems, now they are paying the price of all their lies. I agree with you that she has not the charisma of a leader, she could not lead a nation.

@porwest Let's hope Trump lives up to expectations over the next 4 years. He's got a lot of work to do to fix the things the dems screwed us over on.

That's what the polls said over and over again, but I kept writing (in my blogs) that I thought the polls were more media machinations than true. That proved to be right. There was NO way I could have fathomed a victory for Harris considering on the three biggest issues Americans were concerned about—inflation, the border and the economy—Trump was winning on all three. Not only that, but with approval ratings for Biden in the 30s and 70% of the American people believing the country was headed in the wrong direction, no former president with numbers like that has EVER won an election, so why would that be different now UNLESS TDS was so deep that it would have shifted the vote enough to sway the election. And Harris SUPPORTED Biden's policies and said she wouldn't change a thing. That comment was part of what sealed her fate. I had and continue to have a lot of faith in the American people even though I think we got it terribly wrong in 2020—despite my continued concerns that Trump may have actually won in 2020 as well. But that's water over the damn now. We just need to fix this massive mess we've been left. Luckily, we will be able to do that now.

I thought they already had control of the House. I guess not over yet with the voting results. I saw a video where Letitia James said “we did not expect this result but we are prepared to respond to this result.” She vowed to continue with the civil cases against Trump which are on appeal. Why doesn’t she focus on more important things?

They did have control of the House. This election determines if they KEEP control of the House. As for why some people won't focus on more important issues is because they don't want to. They simply want their agenda and now they are mad it won't go forward. They are even madder that the American people COMPLETELY rejected their agenda.

Americans have made their choice. After a century plus , an ex-President wins an election to become a president. Interesting to see both times he defeated candidates from opposite gender . Noticed you did not mention "Americans of Indian Orgin/ Asian Americans" . I do not think Kamal Harris got all the support from Asian or Indian Americans although they are minorities. In any case, for the economy , Trump would be a better choice. Plus , Kamala did not have any strong ideas of how she could turn around things. Trump also could help position US in some of the International challenges. Lets hope for the best!

America is a melting pot. If I included everyone mentioning demographics my comment would be 42 pages long. As for Asian Americans, they tend to vote Republican anyway, so I would not expect her to get them in any event. But I agree with everything you said here, and apparently so did 72 million Americans so far.

Never underestimate the American people. Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. The Dems tricked a lot of people with a bad candidate in 2020. Not this time! It's sad some here have to blame another reason for her losing like being a woman. Ignorance and sour grapes I call it. Trump increased his voting support from all groups: WOMEN (52%) AMONG THEM... Check the data!
