DONALD TRUMP: Thank you very much, well, I want to thank you all very much, this is great, these are our friends, we have thousands of friends in this incredible movement. This was a movement like no one has ever seen before. And frankly this was I believe the greatest political movement of all time, there’s never been anything like this in this country and maybe the earth.

And now it is going to reach a new level of importance, because we are going to help our country heal. Help our country heal, we have a country that needs help and it needs help very badly. We are going to fix our borders, we are going to fix everything about our country.

We made history for a reason tonight and the reason is going to be just that. We overcame obstacles that nobody thought possible and it is now clear that we have achieved the most incredible political, look what happened, isn’t this crazy?

But it’s a political victory that our country has never seen before, nothing like this. I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honour of being elected your 47th president and your 45th president.

And every citizen I will fight for you for your family, and 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.

This will truly be the golden age of America, that is what we have. This is a magnificent victory for the American people that will allow us to Make America Great Again. And in addition to having won the battleground states of North Carolina, I love these places. Georgia, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. We are now winning in Michigan, Arizona, Alaska, which would result in us carrying at least 315 electoral votes. But as much is here doing what the networks did or whoever called it, because there was no other path. There was no other path to victory.

We also have won the popular vote. That was great.

Winning the popular vote was very nice, I will tell you. It’s a great feeling of love. We have a great feeling of love in this very large room, with unbelievable people standing by my side. These people have been incredible. They’ve made the journey with me, and we’re going to make you very happy and we’re going to make you very happy with your vote.

I hope you’re going to be looking back someday and say that this was one of the truly important votes of my life when I voted for this group of great people, beyond the president. America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate. We have taken back control of the Senate. Wow, that’s good! The Senate races in Montana, Nevada, Texas, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania were all won by the MAGA movement.

They helped so much! In those cases, every one of them, we worked with the Senators. They were tough races. The number of victories in the Senate was absolutely incredible. We did tele-rallies with each one of them. Sometimes we did two or three. It’s incredible to look at those victories. Nobody expected that — nobody.

I want to thank you for that. You have some great senators and some great new senators. It also looks like we’ll be keeping control of the House of Representatives. I want to thank Mike Johnson. I think he’s doing a terrific job. I also thank my beautiful wife, Melania, the First Lady. She has the number one bestselling book in the country, can you believe that? She’s done a great job. She works very hard to help people, so I want to thank her.

I want to thank my whole family. My amazing children — and they are amazing children. We all think that our children are amazing, but it’s a good thing when you think they are. Don, Eric, Ivanka, Tiffany, Barron, Lara, Jarrod, Kimberly and Michael, thank you, all, what a help.

My father-in-law Victor is tremendous. We miss very much Melania’s mother, Amalia. She would be very happy. Standing on this stage she would be so proud. She was a great woman. She was beautiful inside and out. She was a great woman.

I want to be the first to congratulate our great now I can say Vice President-elect of the United States, JD Vance.

And his absolutely remarkable and beautiful wife, Usha. Vance. He’s a feisty guy. He went to the enemy camp, certain networks. A lot of people don’t like it, saying, “Sir, do I have to do that?”

Certain ones, CNN, NBC. He’s the only guy that looks forward to it and then he goes and absolutely obliterates them. Say a couple of words here.

JD VANCE: Well, Mr President, I appreciate you allowing me to join you on this incredible journey. I thank you for the trust that you have placed in me.

I think we just witnessed the greatest political comeback in the history of the United States of America!

Under Donald Trump’s leadership, we’re never going to stop fighting for you — for your dreams, for the future of your children.

After the greatest political comeback in American history, we’re going to lead the greatest economic comeback in American history under Donald Trump’s leadership.

DONALD TRUMP: He’s turned out to be a good choice. I took a little heat at the beginning but I knew that his brain was a good one, about as good as it gets.

We love the family. We’re going to have a great four years and turn our country around and make it something very special. It lasts that little thing called special. We have to make it so. We are going to make it so great.

It’s the greatest country and potentially the greatest country in the world by far, and right now we are going to work very hard to get that back. We’re going to make it the best it’s ever been, we have to do that.

If we have to wait longer, I don’t know, it was going bad and fast, we will have to seal up those borders and let people come into our country. We want people to come back in, but we have to let them come back in that they have to come in legally. Let me also express my tremendous appreciation for Susie and Chris. The job you did! Come, Susie. Come here, Susie. Chris, come here, Chris.

Susie likes to stay in the back, let me tell you. We call her the ice maiden. Come here, Chris. Susie likes to stay in the background. She is not in the background.

CHRIS LACIVITA: This was unexpected, but I want to thank obviously President Donald Trump for this journey.

It was a great one and he’s a hell of a candidate. He’s going to be a hell of a great 47th president. This team we had is the best team. Even my boss, Susie Wiles — the best! Thank you.

DONALD TRUMP: I’ve never seen them be shy before. They are great. Everyone up here is great and very special. Who did you say? Let me tell you, we have a new star.

A Star Is Born, Elon (Musk)! Now he’s an amazing guy. We were sitting here tonight. He spent two weeks in Philadelphia and different parts of Pennsylvania campaigning. He sent the rocket up two weeks ago and I saw that rocket. I saw it coming down. I saw when it left it was beautiful and shiny white and when it came down it wasn’t so pretty, it was going 10,000 mph and it was burning like hell. I said, what happened to your paint job? He said we have never been able to make a paint that can withstand that kind of heat.

I saw it turn around and come down. It’s 22 stories tall, it doesn’t look like that. It came down and down and you saw the fire burning. I said, “Only Elon can do this.” I saw a story, I saw it last night, I had a man on the phone, the screen was muted, no sound, I spoke to a very important man, who happens to be here, a very important guy, one of the most important people in the country, actually, I would say… I was president and now it looks like I am maybe going to be president again so maybe I could ask him to hold, especially because you’re going to be president again they hold.

I took the phone down and I looked at the screen and I saw this crazy thing going down and coming down and it looked like it would crash into the gantry, I said, “Oh, no”, and I said do you mind holding, I need to see this.

I thought it was a space age movie or something. I put the phone down but I didn’t pick it up for 45 minutes and he was holding. This spaceship came down and I saw those engines firing and it looked like it was over, it was going to smash, then I saw the fire or out from the left side and they put it straight and then it came down so gently and then it wrapped its arms around it and it held it, just like you hold your little baby at night.

It was a beautiful thing to see and I called Elon and I said ‘Elon, Elon, Was that you?’ He said, ’ Yes, it was’. He said can Russia do it? No. Can the United States do it? Nobody can do that. That’s why I love you, Elon. That’s great.

We had the tragic Hurricane Helene, and in particular it hit North Carolina. It was a water hurricane as big as we’ve ever seen. Fields became lakes. The danger was unbelievable. The people from North Carolina came to me and said, ‘Would it be at all possible for you to speak to Elon Musk? We need Starlink.’

I said ‘What is Starlink?’ It’s a form of communication. I called Elon. It was very dangerous. People could die. There was no communication and all the wires were down. I called Elon Musk and he said he had something called Starlink. I said what is it? He said it’s a communication system. I said they need really badly in North Carolina.

He got in there so fast, it was incredible. He saved a lot of lives. He’s a character, he a guy and a super genius. We have to protect our geniuses. We don’t have that many of them.

I want to thank the US Open champion, a fantastic golfer. He is slightly longer than me, hits a ball a little bit longer than me, Bryson DeChambeau is a peer. What happened to Bryson, he is up here. Where is he? Bryson is up here. He’s hitting balls. He is on the way. He’s hitting balls. Bryson? Look at him! He’s got a great career going, he had a great US Open.

We also have Dana White, he’s a tough guy! So Dana started UFC and he came to me…I said this is the roughest sport I have ever seen but I began to like it and he loved it.

Nobody has done a better job in sports. He’s a very motivational kind of guy. What he does, he gets these fighters and they really go at it. It’s become one of the most successful sports enterprises anywhere at any time. It’s doing so well. I would like to ask him to say a couple of words, because people love to hear from him.

DANA WHITE: Nobody deserves this more than him and nobody deserves this more than his family does. This is what happens when the machine comes after you, what you have seen the last several years, this is what it looks like. Couldn’t stop them, he keeps going forward, he doesn’t quit, he is the most resilient hard-working man had ever met in my life, his family are incredible people, this is karma, ladies and gentlemen, he deserves this! They deserve it as a family!

I want to thank some people really quick, I want to thanked and Ross, the overall on, the boys and the mighty and powerful Joe Rogan. Thank you America, thank you, have a good night.

DONALD TRUMP: That is a piece of work! He’s an amazing, he is really an amazing guy but most of all I want to thank the millions of hard-working Americans across the nation who have always been the heart and soul of this really great movement. We have been through so much together and today you showed up and in record numbers to deliver a victory like probably no other.

This was something special and we are going to pay you back, we are going to do the best job, we are going to turn it around and it’s got to be turned around fast. We are going to turn it around and do it in every way with so many ways but we will do it in every way, this will forever be remembered as the day the American people regained control of their country.

I just want to say that on behalf of this great group of people, these are hard-working people, these are fantastic people and we can add a few names like Robert F Kennedy Jr. And he is going to help make America healthy again.

DONALD TRUMP: He is a great guy and he wants to do some things and we will let it happen. I just said, “Bobby, leave the oil to me”, we have more liquid gold oil and gas, more liquid gold than any country in the world, more than Saudi Arabia. We have more than Russia, Bobby, stay away from the liquid gold. Other than that, go have a good time, Bobby.

We are going to be paying down debt, reducing taxes, we can do things that nobody else can do, nobody else is going to be able to do it. China doesn’t have what we have, nobody has what we have. We have the greatest people also, that’s the most important thing.

This campaign has been so historic and in so many ways we have the biggest, the broadest, the most unified coalition, they’ve never seen anything like it in all of American history. They’ve never seen it, the young and old, men and women, rural and urban and we have them all helping us tonight if you think.

I was watching it tonight they were having some great analysis of the people that voted for as commonalities ever seen anything like that, it came from all corners. Union, non-union, African-American, this panic American, Asian American, Arab American, Muslim American, we had everybody and it was beautiful. It was a historic realignment, uniting citizens of all backgrounds around a common core of common sense.

You know we’re the party of common sense, we want to have borders, we want to have security, we want to have things be good and safe, we want great education. What a strong and powerful military and ideally we don’t have to use it. We have no wars, for years we had no wars except we defeated ISIS in record time, but we had no wars.

They said “he will start a war” I’m not going to start a war, I’m going to stop wars but this is also a massive victory for democracy and for freedom.

Together we are going to unlock America’s glorious destiny, we are going to achieve the most incredible future for our people.

Yesterday as I stood at my last stop on the campaign trail, I will never be doing a rally again, can you believe it? I think we’ve done 900 rallies approximately from the beginning — 900, 901, something. A lot of rallies! It was sad, everybody was sad. Many people I said this is our last rally but now we are going on to something that is far more important because the rallies were used for us to put in this position where we can really help our country and that is what we are going to do.

We are going to make our country better than it ever has been. I said that many people have told me that God spared my life for a reason. And that reason was to save our country and to restore America to greatness and now we are going to fulfil that mission together.

We will fulfil that mission. The task will not be easy but I will bring every ounce of energy, spirit and fight that I have in my soul to the job that you have entrusted to me.

This is a great job, there is no job like this. This is the most important job in the world. Just as I did in my first term we had a great first term, my great, great first term. I will govern by a simple model — promises made, promises kept. We will keep our promises. Nothing will stop me from keeping my word to you the people.

We will make America safe, strong, prosperous, powerful and free again. I’m asking every citizen all across our land to join me in this noble and righteous endeavour, that is what it is. It’s time to put the divisions of the past four years behind us. It is time to unite and we are going to try, we have to try and it is going to happen.

Success will bring us together, I’ve seen that. I saw that in the first term when we became more and more successful. People started coming together, success is going to bring us together and we are going to start by all putting America first.

We have to put our country first for at least a period of time, we are to fix it. Because together we can truly Make America great again for all Americans. I want to just tell you what a great honour this is, I want to thank you, I will not let you down. America’s future will be bigger, better, bolder, richer, safer and stronger than it ever has been before.

God bless you and God bless America, thank you very much.
