>> he'll be back! >> bret: i think he's going to be back in just a few hours but he did tremendous work going through all those numbers. we didn't actually think we're going to have a call tonight. we thought this might extend. just when we first got our poll members, the voter analysis. but the fact that this is all coming to an end, trust us, the commercials will come to an end. the text messages will come to an end. but there's going to be a lot of digesting what happened tonight. which was history. this was history. don't forget where you are tonight. >> i think a lot of the american people, people i spoke with said i just want there to be a decisive outcome. and i think that is a gift to the country, and i hope that we can all wake up in the morning and move forward with our great country. >> bret: thank you for joining us for democracy '24 election night coverage. trace gallagher picks it up from here. >> martha: could not come everyone. >> bret: good morning! ♪ ♪

♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ >> trace: and good morning, everyone. i'm trace gallagher. welcome to our fox news special election night coverage. breaking tonight, the greatest comeback in american history. two impeachments, two assassination attempts, and three consecutive underestimated presidential campaigns. tonight we can say against all odds that donald trump, now projected to be the 47th president of the united states. meantime, kamala harris encountering the van buren karis, the failure of the vice president to become president. the vp will not be making an appearance tonight, and she still hasn't officially accepted

defeat. we begin this morning with the senior national correspondent kevin corke live for us in d.c. with more at the big board. good evening. or good morning. >> good morning, my friend. quite an overnight in quite a morning here in the nation's capital. you and i talked at length throughout this entire process, about what might be the pathway to victory for donald trump. conversely, what might be the pathway to victory for kamala harris. tonight, a virtual sweep of the blue wall. let me show you where we are. 277, and that is obviously still with a few states out there on the board. i'm just going to point them out for you. the great state of michigan still out there on the board. the former and future president leading here. sometimes it will get a look at a state like that and say 77%. how many votes are out there? this is our remaining vote. the darker the color, the more votes that are out there. you can see some of these areas

are cleaning up, nice and bright and gray, which means there are no more votes to count. however, the ones that are more magenta, little pinkish and color, stills and those out there. you may be wondering, what about detroit and wayne county? they still got some votes. look at this, 30%. that's remarkable. but that is sort of traditional. you know how this goes. you will have a big state and then all the smaller counties will report their votes, and the big cities sort of hang onto their ballots until the very last minute. and they unveil all these ballots. this time detroit has done a little bit of that, but take a look. you see some other areas there, they have got votes still out there for the former president. let me just point out one here. this is a peer, obviously a red county here. 71-26. a lot of votes out there. emmet county, they haven't even begun to report. my point is there are still some

votes out there. as we look at michigan, the former president could possibly win the great state of michigan. if that were to happen, we'd be looking at a virtual sweep of the so-called blue wall as we try to advance this map here. let me give it a little tap, there we go. we can see here as we go back out to the national map, we talked about michigan. you still got arizona. i want to show you how he's doing there. we predicted before the night that he might do very well in the grand canyon state, and so far it is a tight race. 50-48. kamala harris hanging in there but i think it goes without saying that if you are donald trump, you like where you are. and very quickly, the same goes for nevada. trump has the lead, and alaska. could be looking at 300 electoral votes before the night is up. we will keep an eye on it and break down more later. for now, back to you. >> trace: landslide territory, kevin corke. back to you as news warrants. let's bring in steamboat institute fellow kaylee mcghee white, fox news political analyst

gianno caldwell, usc law school professor jody armour, fox news contributor steve hilton, rnc national spokeswoman elizabeth to go, and former house oversight committee staff director julian epstein. welcome to all of you. i guess you first, steve hilton. all you can really say is, weighty begin? what an absolute historic comeback. >> it is amazing and so many ways. i have to say, trace, people may have seen that i was cut off earlier. i have to tell you, i have never been so happy or proud to have been cut off by the announcement of this incredible result. as i was saying before, it is a victory for common sense, the good sense of the american people, to see through all the nonsense and the media propaganda and the fakery that surrounded the kamala harris campaign. they voted for someone who delivered the results the previous time who was clear and direct and authentic and told the truth about what he did before, but he was going to do.

in that sense i think justice was done. justice was done. this was the right result. not just in terms of policy and substance, but it just feels such an amazing moment. we also have to acknowledge the cultural significance of this. it wasn't just the realignment in terms of the latino vote and the working class people. just look at what you saw there, dana white, joe rogan, elon musk. the sense of a real movement here, epic result. and i think we have to conclude by saying what an incredible result in terms of the personal triumph for donald trump tonight. it is an amazing night. >> trace: we were talking earlier, kaylee, he is 78 years old and he has the ear of young america. this is something that we have never seen. >> i am gen z and i've been predicting for a while that trump was going to do better among young adults than people expected him to. i think the only person who is having a better night than donald trump tonight's hillary clinton come because now she's not the only democrat to

lose to donald trump. so thank you, kamala harris, for that. moving forward there's going to be a lot of introspection in the democratic party about what went wrong, specifically with kamala harris' campaign. it is going to be a lot of talk about josh shapiro, getting passed over for the vp nod. there's going to be a lot of talk about whether joe biden should have stepped aside in the first place, whether kamala harris was a uniquely weak candidate. but what steve just said points to a bigger truth here, that none of those factors explain just how big a victory this was. this was a massive realignment of really generational proportions, and it cannot be explained away by one bad vp pick or one candidate. the duke had party >> the democrat party has a real soul searching to do. >> trace: i want to go down to mar-a-lago because elizabeth is at mar-a-lago. i don't know what it's like there. you can see it but you can't feel it through the television screen.

what is the feeling like in trump world right now with this amazing victory? >> hi, trace. the feeling is pretty good. we were at mar-a-lago earlier and then we realized we had won the election and went with president trump, president-elect donald trump now come over to the convention center where everyone just heard his incredible speech and realized t he is over done not going to be the president of the united states. the feeling here is something i cannot describe. i am holding back tears with the right now. this has been such a movement. i cannot tell you how lucky i feel to be part of it and how blessed we all are to have the american people to show us the way. because no matter who tries to stop you, what they try to throw at you, when the american people want something and need something and they know that they are right, they can get it. >> trace: gianno, they talk about breaking down the demographics and we talk about it a lot tonight. it was important in certain aspects. >> actually paid on issues itself, the data doesn't lie, the media does. we saw that when it comes to

them saying black voters aren't going to go to donald trump in any real measure, any measurable impact. we saw that wasn't true and they said the same thing about latinos. they said the same thing about working class whites and many others. what we saw is union members and many of these places came through. there has been a realignment, and certainly there is a new republican party here, one in which i am a very proud member of. i think now as we move forward we are going to see the republican party moves much differently, especially as they try to attract these voters and keep his coalition together, which is going to be extra nearly important for the future of the races, especially as we try to unite the country. >> trace: you talk about the future of the race and young people, jody armour, that you work with as a law professor, and you wonder -- i'm amazed, when i was talking to barron trump's best friend last night about getting involved in the joe rogan podcast and these other podcasts. you think, this is really something spectacular. >> she was just underwhelming.

she didn't have any charisma, she didn't move people. she said what i'm going to do is eliminate the daylight between me and republicans on policy. for example, i'm going to say oil, strong military, bring liz cheney on board. i'm going to create as little space between us as possible and then i'm going to run on "i'm not trump." and that's going to be enough. i won't have to come up with any policy. a lot of young folks and middle-age folks in older folks all want to hear some policy along with the rest of it, and she wasn't delivering that. promises made, promises kept is what trump said and a lot of the american public didn't believe that she would keep her promise. >> trace: meantime the republican party celebrating. democratic party has a lot of self analyzing to do. your thoughts on what happened tonight? kamala harris not coming out and conceding or even giving any kind of speech. what do you think? >> as you and i have been discussing over the last 18 months, very few of us in the democratic party have been worried in anticipating this kind of result.

to lean into steve's point about the realignment, this is more than a political realignment. this is a cultural realignment. it's the closest thing we have had to a marie antoinette moment, where you have a cross multiracial working-class movement that is coming together to reject the professional elite. it's not just the democratic party that tried to keep donald trump out of office and try to put them in jail and keep them off the ballot. this is the news media, hollywood, wall street, silicon valley. this is the working class standing up and saying we are tired of the professional elite, the self-righteous elite, which has become the democratic party. what i have been saying for the last 18 months is that the democratic party needs a wake-up call. the policies of the professional elite and the left elite, the coast elite, the chardonnay hour elite, have been very unpopular. with the economy being run by the government, things like evs which have been a disaster

in the midwest, particularly for the auto industry, and down the list on social issues. you go on down the list. so i think this is the best thing that could happen for the democratic party because very few of us who have been warning about this now say you have the evidence that until the democratic party separates itself from the intersectional elite, the activist intersectional elite that have been driving policy on immigration, on deficit spending, on crime, you name it, coddling the anti-israel community in an absurd way. until the party can reject that, i think they are going to see more nights like this. >> trace: i think you might be right. kaylee was joking earlier about, can't wait to see "the view" tomorrow morning. are we talking about maybe a realignment in the media? they lied to us again and again and again. >> there should be, exactly as julian was saying. but i'm not sure we are going to get that, because you've already seen some of the really

offensive excuses being wheeled out. racism, sexism. america won't vote for women. if i can offer a perspective on that as a new american, from the u.k., the british conservative party has produced three women prime ministers. it has just elected a black woman as its leader. the idea that america is somehow uniquely sexist and uniquely racist and won't vote for women is so offensive and ridiculous, the recent america didn't vote for kamala harris is because she is a terrible candidate, because she didn't make clear where she stood, because she was all over the place on policies and she was not credible, not authentic. alleys of the reasons. and that you had a good record from donald trump versus very poor record on issues of the biden harrison administration periods are to blame it on sexism, i'm afraid that's where they're going to go. because they can't disown the elitism that they have been living for the last decade or

so. it is just baked into their identity. they are captured by this far left ideology. i think it's going be very difficult for them to actually confront the reality that we are seeing tonight. >> trace: you set on our show four months ago, kaylee, you would walk over broken glass after the assassination attempt of it for donald trump. but it was more than that. it was more than just the attempt on his life and the lawfare and so forth. people came to get in his country saying enough is enough. >> he won people over. i think you won people over on the issues. it's another thing democrats are going to have to re-examine here. they put a lot of weight into the abortion issue. they thought that was going to be their hail mary, the issue that saved them in florida. we saw an apportionment failed. in nebraska and apportionment failed. it did not help them in the swing states. maybe that's because the abortion is not on the individual ballots or maybe it's just not a very persuasive issue at all. meanwhile, other issues that democrats thought they could force onto the public ended up

being very persuasive to independence such as men playing in women's sports. that was a huge issue in congressional races down ballot and in some of the senate races. so they really need to do a lot of soul-searching about which cultural issues are worth pursuing. >> trace: i wonder, gianno, as you go forward. i'm not saying it's the end of luke, but is it a step back? to be take a step back culturally in this country? >> what we just saw demonstrated here, when you go woke, you go broke. you remember trump saying that. that's really narrative. we see local prosecution throughout this country, we have seen local policy. you just mentioned the men in women's sports. numerous things that people find offensive, honestly. especially men who are raising daughters. didn't want them competing against biological men. they made a strong statement tonight. but if they are smart they would re-examine this, but many, i

fear, we'll just say this is maybe a donald trump thing and we are not going to change anything for the next run. >> trace: elizabeth pipko, i was talking to kaylee about this, and gianno fits into this mold, as well, that you are among these young people hanging out at mar-a-lago tonight. this new generation, the generation that donald trump has tabbed to move the ball forward. do you believe that you will see this grow? do you think this young movement will grow? >> i definitely believe the young movement will grow. i believe the maga movement in general will grow. if people learned anything tonight, you can't stop what they american people actually believe in. they try to absolutely everything to stop donald trump's movement and they obviously laughed at him when he first launched his movement back in 2015. and look where we are tonight in 2024. no one believed this could happen. look at the kind of voters he brought in. these are records for a republican. we are talking about black americans, jewish americans.

obviously young voters. he started a movement that no one could compete with, that no one saw coming, from a man who had never run for political office before. i know that when he's done in office, in four years, we will all have this light ignite and all of us and all of the american people will come as well. if you believe in yourself and your country apparently you truly can do anything. >> trace: and i think, jody, if you're looking at politics in general and you are a democrat right now, you are worried because it might not just be four years. this could be the start of something. j.d. vance is 39 years old. you are thinking, wow, they could control the button here for a long time. >> they have to take a hard look in the mirror and engage in some critical self-reflection and say, what went wrong here? either i need to become more to the right, moved to the right, or i need to find myself in a more kind of distinct way and not try to just play the personality charisma game. frankly, i lost at that. i was at that very often and i

lost that in this case. so yeah, a lot of the young folks want to see real policy. i even saw in los angeles people saying, i don't want the politics of pigmentation are anymore pretty want to know what your substantive policies are. >> trace: julian epstein, i wonder if you think this for kamala harris is the end of her political career, if you do something else or if she regroups and comes back. >> i think it's the end for her. i think she had an opportunity to perform in unscripted environments and democrats were worried that she wouldn't be able to perform and that's why they didn't put her into a lot of cross-examination interviews. so i think it's going to be hard for her to resurrect yourself, but i think if the media tries to make the identity argument here, that this was about gender or race, i think they are just going to further dig themselves into a very unpopular place. because when joe biden was running, you can look at all the

same issues. the democrats were in deep deficits on the economy, on immigration, on crime, foreign policy. you name it. gianno i think we'll back me up on this. if you talk to black americans on the street about what they think about immigration, particularly working-class black americans, for which immigration has been waged after them, if you talk to them about defund the police, all those issues, as gianno knows, you will find a poll very unpopularly and the democratic positions have been very unpopular. if they're putting together a multiracial coalition amongst the working class, i think it is hard for the news media that was really in the tank for harris to start ritchie signaling here. the signals about this have been around for a couple weeks. the pollsters really got this wrong again for the third time. as i said on your network last night, trace, you can see this coming weeks ago because the early vote was so bad.

which is an indicator of enthusiasm. so this should not be a surprise. it should be a wake-up call. if the democrats are smart they will learn from it rather than point fingers. >> trace: i got about a minute and half left. i want to go around the horn one more time, 15-20 seconds each. >> and very upset you don't include me with the young peopl! i just want to say one thing. i think we can also be seeing a turning point here in california. you had a massive defeat for george gascon here in los angeles, you have the conservative republican common sense position looking like it's going to win handsomely on the crime proposition, on taxes, on minimum wage. you've got the recall of the failed mayor of oakland, the district attorney in alameda county. there is a rejection of this far left ideological policymaking and a desire for change here in california. >> t he will not be confused with the common sense apartment, for which there are now mugs and t-shirts and hats and the whole nine yards.

kaylee, what do you think? >> for those looking for the victory lap, kamala harris has to be lent to certify. >> trace: victory in congress as vice president. she asked me to want to certify it. so i'm looking for her to that. >> trace: gianno? >> to my fellow african americans, welcome to the republican party. we are in a great place now to change this country and move in a direction that's going to be positive for everyone. >> trace: jody? >> a real vote for sincerity, authenticity, trump came off more authentic and harris just didn't. >> trace: elizabeth pipko, your big take away? >> look what president trump has gone through. whether it's the impeachments, the indictment, the mug shot, the assassination attempt, he is still standing and still smiling and the next president of the united states. in america you can do absolutely everything. >> trace: 45 and 47. julian epstein, final moments, comments on this? >> teachable moment to move back to the political center and get in touch with the working class, black, brown, and white.

this national election. black voters, 15%. that may not sound like a lot, but when you consider back when he ran in 2016, the former president and future president rolled in right around 8% at that point. maybe 9% in some key demographics, at least among black voters. that's pretty solid. but when you look at that, it's a heck of a lot better. hispanic voters, 40%. a lot of people, trace, said it would be the difference maker in this race. it will may have been in particular as we look at the state out west. whites with no degree, 62%. college degree educated, 53-43. that's a bit of a surprise for some people. typically that demo goes heavily democratic. as you see older voters, 49-49. under the age of 30, 52-44. a lot of people again thought that would be a heavy democrat-leaning demo. didn't turn out to be that way. suburban women, hugely there for

the vice president, 17 points. among men, no surprise, the former and future president as you see with a nice little bunch, and among hispanic voters, 55-41. we talked about this in the data. a very tight race still ongoing. again, whites with no degree, nearly 60% for the former and future president of the united states. i did want to share one more thing here. we talked about the blue wall, now we can call it the red wall, or so it would seem. look how they did among black voters and those blue wall states. michigan, 10%. wisconsin, 14% for the former president and future president. that is a little bit more in line with what they were hoping for. but look at this, trace. 17% among black voters in wisconsin. that was a real surprise and may have been a major difference maker and they came away with the victory. among young men, not a surprise, 55-43. but i think what we will also be looking at as you look at the exit polling and the moving

forward, what with the turnout numbers among that group? we talked about the podcasting with joe rogan in this real concerted effort to get men to get out and vote. when you're pulling at 55-43, that may have made a huge difference. lastly i want to say this, trace. whatever you think about the former president and his strategy coming into this particular race, you have to acknowledge it was pretty impressive when you consider all the things and all the hurdles he had to clear just to get to this night, and it would appear he's going to come away with a big victory. pretty incredible. trace? >> trace: kevin corke, back to you in moments. meantime let's bring in posters craig and matt along with the cohost of the pulling plus podcast, trafalgar group chief pollster robert. thank you for coming on. had you on last night, and i have to give you kudos here because you were spot on. as we were talking about last night, we didn't know at the

time that the polling was terrible. you had different poles, different numbers. you had a different way of doing this, and it was spot on. kind of like we are going to talk about with the others. >> i had a little help from my friends. wonderful lanterns in this world of fog. the key thing here is that we saw exactly how the electorate would turn out. we also had a working premise, the three of us, that trump had invaded the republican party into a broader spectrum of middle-class, working-class, that attracted minorities, african americans, latinos, with exuberance and precision. and his message is resonating across the spectrum. this is why he came out tonight with an extraordinary victory. this is historic, and this will have legs as long as the president-elect will continue to

win his policies. >> trace: what are you doing differently than the rest of the pollsters are doing? because again, they under-counted trump. >> i just listen to robert. we have always been able to find those trump voters, the shy trump voters, a little bit better. and craig did a great job of forecasting. you need to become the new forecaster. i think would happen here is it is hard to get these people to tell you because there is so much negative toward trump. and they truly think they're going to be on a list where people aren't going to talk to them. they were just afraid to talk. the way robert and i collect our information, we do it more anonymously. we don't put people on the spot, and had a very brief surveys. we don't ask them 60 questions. nobody but a political expert is going to hang in for 60 questions these days. i think that was a difference, and i agree with everything the others have said. demographics, the groups we have

in our poles, whether it's african americans, hispanics, women, white voters in general, they all ticked up and that is exactly the way the election turned out. >> trace: robert, it's amazing, because you're going to see the posters in the next, i don't know, 5 minutes, start giving you excuses for why they screwed up. it wasn't their fault, it was this. what do you make of the bad polling again? >> the media elite called the quality posters the credible posters, and yet again in a presidential race for the third time in a row they got it wrong. because they really don't understand what people. polling is about more than numbers. you have to understand the fact that, like matt said, they're not going to answer these long questionnaires, and you have to give people ways to participate that maximize what they can do on their time schedule. the other thing is, with all that was going on this year, i

think the trump campaign made a very smart decision to not listen to all the voices that said focus on suburban women. instead they went to the coalition that democrats count on, they minorities and the young people, and sliced a big piece that. suburban women who aren't going to look for trump aren't going to change their mind. that's why we have been sort of a team on this. we have been able to figure out some of this. >> trace: do you think part of it is fear, they just decide they're going to hurt with each other so they don't get in trouble and become an outlier? >> i think you're absolutely right. unfortunately for most posters other than the gentleman sharing the tv screen with me, a little reluctant and hesitant and it's also a function of experience. we've been doing this for a very long time. we understand the mentality of the voter and we can penetrate a little deeper than most. >> trace: i wonder, matt, as you look at numbers and go back,

you are going to reanalyze and self-analyze, as well. i wonder if this makes you better next time around because you've got the secret sauce. you and craig and robert have kind of the secret sauce that others are still kind of grasping for. >> you got me laughing because they both know i'm not going to do this again. i play golf all the time now. let me say something about the hurting. we were beaten up for allegedly hurting because we didn't have trump winning by four and five points and some of the states. they ended up being within one or half a point of where we were on everyone. billy showed he was going to win in each one of these battleground states. i think that's where people are afraid. they did not want to face the reality of this election. it was very obvious if they just looked. >> trace: are you on the golf course too are you going to keep doing this? we need consistency. we need people who can be

consistent. >> i'm going to let my doc holliday go off and do his thing and i'll continue gun fighting out here. >> trace: lastly, seriously, because you are so good and i was talking to craig last night, it really was. talk about being in the ballpark, you are all right at home plate when everybody else was scattered around the bases. i'm wondering, if you had to give me one big take away -- i've got about 15-20 seconds for you -- what's your thing you want to tell people they missed about the polling? >> the first thing i think they really missed was the fact that people are scared. they are scared about lawfare, about being targeted, and they were looking for a way to tell you what they were feeling. we always knew he was going to be hidden without, and it showed up just as we thought it would. craig's article about that a few weeks ago was just spot on. >> trace: you guys are all spot on. thank you so much robert, matt,

president-elect of the united states. let's see tonight's results in both chambers of congress. the senior national correspondent kevin corke back live with that side of the st story. >> trace, leaving watching this for quite some time. let me show you the senate. this is the one i think we'll get a lot of people talking tonight. obviously you need 51 to have the balance of power go your way. look right there. you might be saying, how in the world does that happen? there is more! they not only have the 51, they have the balance of power, they make up their numbers before the night is over and before the week is over. let me show you some of the key races we been keeping an eye on. jon tester is in trouble. he's trailing right now, only 47%. it's too soon to call, but right now if you're a betting person you're probably putting your money on tim sheehy. it gets worse for the democrats because there are a number of other races that are very tight

that are again leading the republicans' way. sam brown, super tight race. 80%, too seem to call. let's say he hangs on. there's more. across the country to pennsylvania, and at the very tight race. dave mccormick leading. bob casey is the incumbent. everybody knows bob casey. he's trailing now 96%. as a republicans hang onto that. supertight, you never know. but if they do, you could be looking at 54. the numbers just keep going and going. there's a bit of good news if you're a democrat and you want to see how things are turning out in arizona right now. 50%, too seem to call, but ruben gallegos still leading kari lake. hasn't won it, but at least they get a bit of good news there. my point is, the for the night is up, you could be looking at this balance of power looking a lot more like 54 or 55.

mike rogers is very likely going to win this one. another republican. 80%, too seem to call but it's almost a done deal. as you look at that, that is an incredible number and that makes for an incredible night here in the senate. i want to take you back very quickly while i can to it happening on the house side. the house race is a little more complicated. as you know, 218. that's what you need for the majority. the ones in yellow, that's where we have some interesting races. let me take you out to nevada. let's take you to the congressional district number three and see how things are looking over there at this hour. suzy lee in a real battle with drew johnson, too close to call. 50-49. it's been like that all over the country. we have been watching races everywhere and it seems like all of it country we are seeing 50-48, 50-49. it's been that kind of night, especially it shows you a very

divided country. let me take you back out here. i want to take you down to the great state of texas. i should have mentioned ted cruz. we talked about the big win for him on the senate side. let's take you up to congressional district 15. i'll show you this one. monica de la cruz over michelle vallejo. 57-42. not going to say it's going to be 218 or more but it certainly looks that way for the g.o.p. you could be looking at all the balance of power on the right, which would be quite a return to the white house for 4045. >> trace: ted cruz was saying i was going to win office anyway, and they spent so much money trying to defeat me, we got two other republican senators in the mix. so he might be right about that. we will get back to you in moments. thank you. that spring in pinal county, arizona, sheriff mark lamb. we've had you on the show so many times. i want to know what you think of arizona. did it go the way he thought it was going to go tonight? >> we didn't have a great night

in arizona. we lost some local battles. my guy that ran for sheriff won, so congrats to him. >> trace: good. >> i think trump is going to win the state. if you look back four years, trump was trailing and trying to cover the ground in the next few days after the election. he is leading at the start, and it's getting bigger and bigger. so i think it's going to trend into a victory for president trump. we would have loved to pick up a senate seat there. i think we might lose a couple congressional seats. so it wasn't a great night for us in arizona but i think in the end trump will win. >> trace: i want to put it this voter analysis. this is reducing the number of immigrants allowed to seek asylum. put it up on the screen here, 67% opposed, 32% opposed. it seems to me like it wasn't the number one issue, but it was a big issue and it was a lot of people into the president's corner. >> let me tell you how big it was in arizona. they passed a ballot measure for abortion by 60% or something. but at the same time they passed

a ballot measure making it illegal to come into the state illegally. so that passed by 60%. so it shows you the border was a big issue for arizonans and a big issue all across the country. my good friend out in florida, we did a lot of the ads in pennsylvania for the border. i was on those ads, and i think it made a big difference. i think people in pennsylvania saw the importance of the border, as well. >> trace: it was such a big issue that in his speech tonight the former and future president said this about the border. watch. >> we are going to have to seal up those borders and we are going to have to let people come into our country. we want people to come back in, but we have to let them come back in illegally. >> trace: i think everybody agrees on that, sheriff. we need people, we need migrants, but they have to be legal. we have to know what they're doing here. >> the majority of americans feel exactly that way.

we are okay with you coming here. you've got to do it legally. i think this election shows you that americans believe that. we have got to have laws. trump is the best person to do it. i was sheriff under president trump. he had great border policies and they worked. then the last four years have been a complete disaster. so i'm looking forward to getting back to the president trump policies and looking forward to securing this border, because we owe it to the american people to secure the border. >> trace: everybody will applaud people. you go through the system legally and become an american citizen, and we stand up and we will applaud you. but you can't come across illegally. kamala harris, the whole tone and tenor of the way that she dealt with a lot of this violence from illegal immigrants against people, the parents, it was off-putting. >> it was off-putting and disingenuous. when i listen to kamala harris, the things you never talked about, she never talked about god, the constitution. it didn't show much care for the

victims of the people that were victimized by people that came into this country illegally. she had never shown any care for the people that were getting all this money that came into this country illegally. we had americans struggling. i think ultimately americans saw through that and they held her accountable for it. >> trace: i think it's interesting, you didn't talk about god or didn't talk about things -- she was really in the public for not talking about religion as much as she should have, for not talking different things. palestinians and one group, jews the other group. she would its object so she could please everybody and nobody knew where she stood. she's a candidate with very little substance and very few principles. when you do that, you don't ever stand up for anything. i think she was exposed. so they tried to craft a certain message and any time she got outside she struggled. they were realizing they were being fed a bunch of lines. we want substance. we need substance in this

country to take it and get back on track, secure the border, fix the economy. the list goes on and on. i think americans realize she wasn't the person f for the job. >> trace: a good night for america. >> it's a great night for america and a great night for president trump and his family. congratulations to president trump and j.d. vance. i think they're going to do great job. >> trace: shares, thank you. appreciate it. coming up later, the liberal media not too happy with trump's big win tonight. but remember, we showed you the ads kamala harris ran on israel to kill different messages. to her lack of clarity cost are in key battleground state? did it cost her in the battleground states? we are going to have our panel talk about that next. ♪ ♪

about tonight. obviously this great victory. i predicted this last monday when we were in powder springs, georgia. the national faith advisory board annual summit. we had 2700 pastors and faith leaders that were by invitation only. the president came and spent almost two and a half hours with us where i was able to interview him. and i talk about some of the statistics in the polls that have been out there and talked about how people of faith will not show up. i said, i don't believe it. i'm not there the last several years working with the coalition of the greatest army of faith. we had hundreds and hundreds of churches that did voter registration that had never done voter registration in battleground states. north carolina, georgia, pennsylvania. we had two simultaneous things going on, get out the vote. my husband plays with journey, and i was out touring with him as well as doing all this, and i was with every day people, people of faith, people who love

this country, who love our president, and they got out and we are getting the statistics back right now. just got off with ralph reed and others, and we turned out in droves. i think we are going to have historical numbers for the faith vote. >> trace: when you say historical numbers, and want to put you on the spot or anything, but what are we looking at? when you say statistics, what are you hoping for? what are we looking for? >> we had 81% of the evangelical vote for president trump in 2016, and then we went up to 85 in 2020. ralph and i believe that we are going to hit over 87, and when you begin to look, and we know that we already know because we have been just following this in real time, faith and freedom alone knocked over 9.8 million doors. when you look at what churches have done, the phone because they've made, the people they've talked to, the people he registered, it is just unprecedented.

when you look at conservative catholics with evangelicals and you see that number makes up over 38% of the electorate, i said this before that is more than the black, hispanic, and union put together. and we know everyone turned out. hispanic vote, black vote, union vote, women vote, and then vote. we won the popular vote. and that really says something about where this nation -- we were not ready nor will be accept an anti-god agenda and policy being implemented that does not align with the values of our nation and the values of millions and millions of people. >> trace: i've got to go, paula, but i'm wondering if you can put your thumb on exactly why these people of faith, these christians, are so drawn to donald trump. >> well, because he implements policies that we value and care about, and he is promised made, promise kept. i've known him for 24 years and been with him and of course i've been so privileged to open that

door, and we put 10,000 faith leaders through the white house before. and they know him personally. they have worked with him and they know that this is a man that stands for their values, their policies, and we will not allow this anti-god agenda for our children or grandchildren. that's why they showed up. >> trace: thank you so much for coming on. we appreciate your time. best of luck to you and all the people who voted for the former president. meantime, a big issue in this race, the war in the middle east and the surge in anti-semitism here at home. let's bring in the host of the aaron cohen show podcast, idf special operations veteran aaron cohen, along with rnc creator and pro-israel activist emily austin. thank you both are coming on. aaron, to you first. i know we are talking about politics but we have to talk about the breaking news, as well, the defense secretary, israel's version of the defense secretary, was fired today by benjamin netanyahu. what does that mean?

there were protests in tel aviv. what does that mean for israel? you think it is a significant move? to go here's what i think it means. there are three major sticking points. a little softer than bibi. he's been very hawkish and winston churchill of this campaign since october 8th. pushing to get ultraorthodox jews to enlist in the idf, wanted israel to have control over god's or not have israel inside gaza after operations were finalized there, and then getting a temporary cease-fire. and bibi, as i've said in the past,. [speaking hebrew] , he's been speaking at strength language in the middle east. we cannot negotiate. so bibi let him go and i think it's been brewing for a while. bibi finally cut the strings.

but is very decorated 35-year israeli seal commander, but there is a ton of very respected military leaders. now they have just put in israel's foreign minister who is a friend, and i think israel is going to be just fine. he is a veteran, in general reconnaissance, he knows terrorism and counterterrorism. i think israel will push in that direction it needs to go. >> trace: what you think about the election, emily austin? that kamala harris is hurt by her constant equivocation that she wouldn't stand on back the israelis. she really wouldn't stand and back the american jews or -- she wouldn't stand anywhere on this issue. >> she doesn't stand anywhere on any issue, trump to trace. her problem wasn't only that she wouldn't stand behind israel, but she was always proven wrong. the greatest example was don't go into rafah, otherwise he will

will will, we will withhold weapons. they had a choke hold doing an arms embargo but then she goes on the opposite side and tells the muslim community what they want to hear in conflict with flaps. but kamala's policies regarding the middle east have always been wrong. that's beside the fact that she won't even be respected regarding all the foreign leaders if she were to be president. so thank god trump won. israel is in good hands now and i'm confident. >> trace: i wonder if the people of israel have the same sentiment. are they happy with his victory? do they think that this might move toward ending wars in the middle east? >> i think israel is ecstatic. about 70% of israelis support trump. prime minister netanyahu himself posted a tweet. congratulations on the greatest

comeback in history. he and trump were very close. bibi has been around the political sphere forever, but i know they worked extremely closely. remember, trump assassinated qassem soleimani back in 2020. so the understand that language. he doesn't speak a word of hebrew, or a word of arabic, but he understands the language of the middle east and bibi appreciates that. i think the israelis feel relief like emily said, that trump is back in office and it was in a couple comeback. i think it is going to help actually get this war ended sooner because there's going to be some very tough rules set in place where they are not going to be placating to hamas, to these protesters, and to the terror organization itself. so i think we are going to see some very dramatic operational plays here. >> trace: i want to get your take on this, emily austin. this is coming across the wire. a senior hamas official to reuters saying we urge trump to learn from biden's mistakes, like hamas is suddenly going to call the shots.

what do you think about that? >> oh my god. we pray trump does not copy biden's mistakes. there's a reason why we voted for him and not the harris administration. it wasn't iran's best interest, hezbollah's best interest, and hamas' best interest for kamala to his neck so she could continue biden's botched foreign policy, basically to put israel in a choke hold, like i said before, and make them lose this war against terrorism. there's no black or white. it is exactly black or white. you are for terrorism or against it. and donald trump, as aaron said so beautifully, has always shown his strength and resilience when it comes to ending terrorism, showing them who america is, and making sure there's no place for that here because they say it israel first in america is next. trump knows that and he will not let it get that far. so he will not be repeating the same mistakes as joe biden. >> trace: i've got ten seconds left for you.

hamas, giving orders, telling trump what to do? >> i think hamas needs to put down their weapons and i think it's time to end this thing right now. now that the big dog is in the office, trace, i think we are going to see some ground and pound here. >> trace: emily austin, aaron cohen, thank you both. we are coming right back, containing or breaking news coverage. it eased election, the day after. we will see you in 2 minutes. since 2009. this playstation 5 sold for only 50 cents. this ipad pro sold for less than $34. go to dealdash.com and see how much you can save.
