This Will Be Golden Age Of US: Trump
"This will be the golden age of America. America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate, Trump declared with his family by his side amid cheers of his jubilant supporters. This is a magnificent victory for the American people. This was a movement like nobody's ever seen before, and frankly, this was, I believe, the greatest political movement of all time," he said.
Trump added, "There's never been anything like this in this country, and maybe beyond, Trump said. And now it's going to reach a new level of importance because we're going to help our country heal. We'll help our country...we have a country that needs help, and it needs help very badly, he said. We are going to fix our borders. We are going to fix everything about our country."
Trump promised that he will be fighting for the people of the US with "every breath" in his body.
