US Election Night Compilation | Good Morning Britain

Bert Bert Bert for president Bert for president president yes and maybe Ernie could be your vice president Hillary will come at some point and presumably give a concession speech when it is mathematically impossible for her to win, but she will achieve it in a I don't know if you can see it from this angle on an illuminated map of the United States with the podium in the middle which was where she was supposed to be as the new president-elect as the first woman to hold this position, the glass ceiling here. It wasn't an accident, that was the metaphor she was supposed to have smashed and of course none of that has happened and they really can't believe it.

They thought early in the

night

that they could knock out Trump if he won Florida. impossible, but they didn't make it, then they couldn't win Ohio, in fact, they lost it by a lot and Trump's Rust Belt strategy. Traditionally, Republicans have tried to win the presidency in the South, leaving the Russ Belt and the large industrial states of the North in the hands of the Democrats. Trump went the other way, saying no, once there were Reagan Democrats, there can be Democrats. of Trump, I can win there and people frankly laughed at him, but he did it in Wisconsin, a state that Hillary Clinton was so sure she was going to win.

She told me that at no point in this entire campaign did she set foot in that state, well, she lost it, if she had won it she could have been president to

night

, but that's the reality, the Democratic side will have to live with it. been beaten by a penthouse-dwelling billionaire who posed as an anti-establishment friend of the working class and they couldn't resist that she couldn't beat him and well, the mood says it all, it's perfectly predictable, this has been happening all over the world, including in your country, it has been happening in this country for 10 years, both political parties have tried to push for an amnesty and on both occasions it was not one political party fighting another, but it was the American people that he found out. and shutting down the congressional switchboards apparently humans all over the world like to have countries and they like to live in their countries so I think it was predictable that's why a lot of us didn't predict it but do you think it was more about jobs? and Trump said, look, I'm going to bring jobs back to America for working class guys again.

Was it about immigration? Was it Islamic terrorism or was it all? It's all part of the same thing which is globalism versus nationality. I mean, some of the trade agreements are very important that we have lost, as have the number of manufacturing jobs that have been created in the last 20 years. People don't know it in this beautiful city and they don't know it in San Francisco, Washington or Los Angeles. But if they go to America, people who used to have great jobs and their children could expect better futures than theirs. Now it's

good

for Wall Street because they can organize the international deals, but it's terrible for the people who work here and throw away millions. of low wage workers in the country look how terrible it has been for the African American community in this country Donald Trump is elected president of the United States of America, he is the 45th president of the United States and this is a seismic political change earthquake which will have repercussions around the world tonight so confirm that Donald Trump according to the Associated Press is the new president of the United States.

Wow, I have Andrew Perez and Joey Sepeda, both very, very happy, let me start with you first from Andrew. uh how amazing tonight was for you, it's amazing, I mean no one expected him to win, the media had him down 20 points at first and then yesterday all of a sudden he's up by five and today we have a win and for you , Joey. What was the atmosphere in the ballroom like for you? It was historic, it was incredible to be surrounded by people who were very happy to see Donald Trump, our next president, and the world probably more than ever has shown that we never believe in polls.

We are experiencing what you experienced with Brexit and all the polls said he wasn't going to win, but we knew there was going to be a huge silent minority that was going to vote for Trump, they just wouldn't talk, those polls turned out wrong again. I noticed that you clearly had your Hispanics for Trump and you were telling me that you live in South Texas, right in South Texas, in the area near the border, no, we are on the border, so what do you think? of your The immigration policies that have been very divisive, I think it's great, I mean, we have a border that is crossed every day and we have to put an end to it, I mean, the media, the news doesn't do it, right?

I know they announce what is happening, they keep it silent, but it is a problem and we have to solve it and the plan for the war so that Mexico pays for it. Do you think that is a reality when Trump says that Mexico is going to pay for that? the wall and not literally Mexico is going to write a check that he has and in his, if he goes to his policies, he has established ways that things will be paid for, whether it be an increase in bridge crossing fees, money that is sent to Mexico in transactions will be made, will be made uh our family was personally affected our Mexican relatives in Mexico were forced by the cartels to start coming to the United States and start working for them as private investigators and when they were visiting United States Mallen Texas our city we I had no idea they were under duress anyway long story short we have witnessed the friend first hand and then on a personal level our family our family was actually affected by the justice department, uh, basically making the FBI lie about our father's situation. interview and all, but are you worried that he's so divisive and maybe he can't be?

I mean, they just accept it, since he's not a politician, he tells it like it is and people don't like it. How fantastic, well Andrew and Joey, thank you so much for your time today. Great victory for Donald Trump and, as you can see, his followers are very, very happy. Russian President Vladimir Putin has also contacted Trump. We believe that congratulating him through Telegram will be a very interesting relationship. which to the world Trump has obviously been quite conciliatory with Putin in public Hillary Clinton was notably very hostile towards Putin I don't think it's that bad if the president of Russia and the United States fight with Jerry Springer is it a bad thing if the two countries have a cordial relationship, no, they have reached an agreement, Russia will be our 51st and I think that will be it, you know, I have no problem if they want to be friendly until you know that they are not friendly.

That's much worse, so

good

luck to the two in Washington who are slowly coming to terms with what has been an absolute shock. I think for the people here I don't think anyone really expected it. I have two guests with me. we have Troy McCurry, who is a constitutional

election

lawyer, and Reggie loves it, who we've also had on the show in London, uh, who is a close friend of President Barack Obama. We just heard President-elect Donald Trump give a big advice, uh. speech about bringing Unity, um, but this has to be a crushing blow to Barack Obama, who campaigned so hard for Hillary and talked about her legacy and don't let it go, no, I think you know, the president campaigned very hard. on behalf of Hillary Clinton and I think the hope was that people would have been excited to attend, but unfortunately it didn't seem like we were getting the numbers and turnout that he had in 2012 and in 2008, I have a hard time seeing them spend tons of money on a wall that for all intents and purposes all the experts said won't actually do anything is still a bit of an absurd concept but the cost of doing something like that would just be Skyrocket and Skyrocket the deficit and what I found most interesting in In a way, everything he just said in his first speech was when he said look, there are a lot of you who didn't support me and I think he was talking to high-ranking Republicans.

Republicans, but I'm reaching out to you to help me do this and it's pretty interesting that he's aware that the president doesn't have complete authority, but he needs the support of the party, for sure, and I think you've seen that throughout from all of this. campaign there have been moments when Donald Trump acted presidentially, they may have been small and fleeting and have dissipated quickly, but I think what you saw tonight was an indication of one of those moments, the question now is how long does it last? that last one Richard, you're in New York, not my president, just another opportunity that's been playing tonight, that's right Ben, and it was playing until after midnight here, it's 2:00 in the

morning

and about at 12:30 the police announced that we were going to start arresting people if they didn't move forward and clear the pavement, which has been very successful here in New York City, not so much on the west coast, currently in Oakland we They say there is real violence and problems in the streets.

Fires are starting. Shattered windows in Los Angeles, Southern California. A road is currently blocked by protesters who are angry that Donald Trump has been elected president. I mean, here in New York City they were prepared for trouble, in fact, these trucks parked. Outside Trump Tower, Donald Trump's sand-filled house, they told us to protect the building from car bombs, but they weren't ready, it seems thousands of people, maybe more than 10,000 people marched through the streets last night to vent their anger, not my president after the shock came anger Manhattan at rush hour traffic paralyzed streets flooded with protesters we are launching what will be the first of four years of constant protest demonstrations all of us here in New York and throughout the country the world we know is not right he is not going to be our president he has insulted Muslims he has insulted Mexicans he has insulted all marginalized groups until he gets the keys to the Oval Office this is Donald Trump's house here on Fifth Avenue and your neighbors here in New York The city of York is telling you very clearly that you are really not welcome and from democratic-leaning cities across America came the same message.
