Former US President and candidate Donald Trump in a speech has claimed victory in the elections just after the polls have closed in the key battleground states with reliable statistics that rightly predict winners of US Presidential elections.
Trump addressed his supporters and media present after projections indicated he was likely to win the key state of Pennsylvania, a prediction that gave him a clear lead to the seat of presidency ahead of the supposed 270 electoral votes needed.
With further projections indicating a win for Trump in most swing states, the Ex-President and Republican Presidential Candidate was confident of victory over the Democrat’s nominee and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Although Kamala Harris was able to win some states as well as a number of electoral votes including wins from New Jersey, New Minnesota and across other states and electoral colleges, Trump’s massive predictions and results especially across the swing starts saw him take a stage with his wife to address his supporters at a rally in Florida.
“We are going to fix everything about our country. We made history for a reason tonight,” Trump stated. “It is now clear that we’ve achieved the most incredible political thing.”
The Ex-President during his first term in office was clear on securing America from notorious immigrants and restoring the glory of the oldest and surviving democracy continued to mention his plans on closing boarders and probably deporting illegal immigrants who in his claims are a threat to America.
