Unbelievable! I won by a landslide in the election, against the entire Democratic Party and nearly 100% of negative news coverage. In 86% of the counties in the United States, I won with a result of 2,750 to 525; I won the Electoral College 312 to 226; after several decades, I became the first Republican to win the popular vote as well; and I won all 7 key battleground states decisively. For the first time in history, all 50 states turned toward the Republican Party. I did not compete against one candidate, but against 2 candidates—“Sleepy Joe” and Kamala—a situation that has never happened before. All of this occurred while almost all the media were against me, and fake news was ready to do whatever it took to make me lose; especially Meggy Haberman, one of the least-liked people in the news industry, her underwhelming assistant Jonathan Swan, and the failed New York Times itself, which spends all its energy publishing negative stories about me. I’m the one who keeps winning—often contrary to every prediction.

But after that major election success, no one said: “He won, great job!” No one said: “Maybe we were wrong about him, and the people were right.” Or even: “Congratulations, and we wish you the very best for your success for our country!” No; instead, after winning the election for the third time, the same people started all over again—failed New York Times, the Wall Street Journal that has lost its way, MSDNC (which changed its name to MSNOW because no one watched it!), clueless CNN with a number of the worst anonymous hosts in history, and all 3 fake networks—ABC, CBS, and NBC. The number of readers, viewers, and audiences of all of them is dropping sharply, because people have realized that, as I said from the very beginning, they are “fake news.” They no longer have any credibility; otherwise it would have been impossible for me to win despite all this negative news, with such a historic and decisive victory.

Just think: those were my opponents! If another election were held today, I would win by an even wider margin—in fact, by a much wider margin. The Democrats don’t have what it takes, their policies are wrong, and overall they are a bunch of ignorant people. They are going toward communism because they are like a ship that is sinking badly and they can’t do anything about it. Instead of writing incorrect and false articles about me for more than 10 years, isn’t it time for them to say: “We give up; we can’t beat him and apparently there’s nothing we can do”? Isn’t it time for them to say: “Trump is the greatest political athlete of all time! Congratulations, Mr. President. You’ve beaten us for 10 years, and we won’t waste any more of our time fighting you. We can’t win. Run our country in the best way possible, sir. Make America great again!”

Donald J. Trump
