I Will Only Declare Victory “When There’s Victory” — Trump
It’s Election Day, and Americans are casting their ballots for president, members of Congress and in state and local races.
More than 100 million ballots were cast before Election Day, according to a survey of election officials by CNN, Edison Research, and Catalist.
President Donald Trump, offering only a mildly confident view of his prospects, said Tuesday he will declare victory “only when there’s victory.”
“There’s no reason to play games. I look at it as being a very, a very solid chance of winning here. I don’t know how they rate the chances,” Trump said on “Fox & Friends” during a morning phone interview.
“I think a lot of that has to do with the tremendous crowd size.”
Calling in 45 minutes late, with his voice sounding scratchy after a late night rally in Michigan, Trump said he planned further phone calls later today to “very loyal” people and a visit to his campaign headquarters.
“It’s been a great run, an incredible three weeks,” Trump said of his final campaign sprint.
He called his last stretch of campaigning “emotional” knowing it could be his final time as a candidate.
