Former President Donald Trump addressed his supporters on Wednesday thanking them for giving Republicans an unprecedented and powerful mandate, and said this moment will help the country "heal".
“I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honour of being elected your 47th president, and your 45th president,” he said.
“America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate. We have taken back control of the Senate- wow that’s good,” Trump told his supporters in Florida. This moment will help the country "heal", he said.
Notably, this is going to be only the second instance of a president serving two non-consecutive terms in the White House. This is only the second instance and the first in over 100 years of a leader winning the presidency after losing once. Grover Cleveland served as non-consecutive president in 1884 and 1892.In his address Trump expressed gratitude to the people and said he won't rest until he delivers a "strong, safe and prosperous America."
Addressing supporters in Florida, accompanied by his running mate, JD Vance, and family members, Trump called his projected win the "greatest political movement of all time," which will help in making "America great again."
?“And the Senate races in Montana, Nevada, Texas, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania were all won by the MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement they helped so much,” Trump said.
“The number of victories in the Senate was absolutely incredible,” he added. "I will fight for you with every breath in my body, will not rest until we have delivered strong, safe and prosperous America," said Trump.
Republicans will win at least 50 seats in the Senate of the US Congress by the end of the elections, as estimated by Fox News. As per CNN projections, candidates from the Democratic Party are winning the elections for the governors in only three of the ten states where the counting is already underway.?
