Donald Trump addressed supporters at the Palm Beach Convention Centre on Wednesday, declaring victory in the 2024 US Presidential election. Although counting is still ongoing, projections show that Trump has secured a strong majority, positioning him to become the 47th President of the United States.
Trump described his win as not just a political triumph, but as part of a larger historic movement. "I want to thank the American people for electing me as the 47th President," he said. He also emphasized that the election represented an unprecedented political movement, calling it "the greatest political movement of all times."
Here are some of the key quotes from Trump’s victory speech:
"God spared my life for a reason: To save America at that point of time." "We have a new star... a star is born - Elon! He sent a rocket up, I saw it coming down." "He (Elon) is a genius. We have to protect our geniuses, we don't have many of them." "I love Elon!" "We are going to have to seal up those borders." "We are going to help our country heal, we are going to help our country heal. We have a country that needs help and it needs help very badly." "The number of victories in the Senate was absolutely incredible. Nobody expected that, nobody. We have some great new Senators. It also looks like we will be keeping control of the House of Representatives." "China doesn't have what we have." "I want to thank my whole family, my amazing children. Everybody here thinks their children are amazing." "Every citizen, I will fight for you, for your family and for your future." "Every single day, I will be fighting for you with every breath in my body. I will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe, and prosperous America that our children deserve and that you deserve." "America has given us unprecedented and powerful mandate. We have taken back control of the Senate." "This will truly be the golden age of America." "If I lose an election, if it's a fair election, I would be the first one to acknowledge it. So far I think it's been fair."During his address to supporters in West Palm Beach, Florida, Donald Trump was joined on stage by many key figures from both his personal and political life. His wife, former First Lady Melania Trump, stood by his side, along with their youngest son, Barron. Trump's older children—Don Jr., Eric, Ivanka, and Tiffany—also took the stage to stand with him.
In addition, some of Trump’s top political advisors, such as Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita, along with his political allies, including House Speaker Mike Johnson, were present alongside him.
