Former President Trump stood in front of his supporters around 2 a.m. when he was certain to win.
He said he was honored to be the 47th president of the United States and promised to fix the United States that Biden and Harris ruined.
[Donald Trump / Former President of the United States] We have a country in need. This country is in dire need of help. We're going to fix our borders and fix everything in this country.]
He said he survived two assassination attempts because he had a mission to take care of.

Trump led the presidential election from the beginning of the vote, which was expected to be the first-ever super battle.
After securing more than 100,000 votes in Georgia, a contested state that lost the last presidential election by 12,000 votes, he also won North Carolina and Pennsylvania to regain the White House in four years.
Vice President Harris, who was attending a vote-counting party at Howard University in Washington, his alma mater, never showed up.
[Harris Camp] There will be no speeches by Vice President Harris today. But I'll be able to hear it tomorrow. You'll be back here tomorrow.]
Trump won a total victory, winning a majority not only in the Electoral College vote but also in the overall voter vote.
Former President Trump will officially take office on January 20th next year, and he will soon set up a transition committee and start devising a second administration.
