it will be studied and debated, the impact broad and deep, a turning point for the country. rachel scott has been on the road with the trump campaign. she starts us off. good morning, rachel. >> guys, good morning. i would say good morning but we never actually said good night. we just projected this race. it was a historic run for president and now a historic return to the white house after a two year long campaign. donald trump a convicted felon who survived two assassination attempts making a remarkable comeback to become the next president of the united states. this morning donald trump projected to be the next president of the united states. >> usa! usa! usa! >> i want to thank you all very much. >> reporter: the former president once again outperforming expectation, shocking his political opponents and sweeping enough of the battleground states to win the white house. >> many people have told me that god spared my life for a reason. [ cheers and applause ] and that reason was to save our

country and to restore america to greatness. and now we are going to fulfill that mission together. >> reporter: overnight trump addressing a fired up crowd of supporters in florida, declaring victory minutes after abc news and other outlets called pennsylvania for him. >> 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. >> reporter: the former president, whose campaign was fueled by dark rhetoric and calls for revenge now pledging to help heal the country. >> it's time to put the divisions of the past four years behind us. it's time to unite. and we're gonna try. we're gonna try. we have to try. it's gonna happen. success will bring us together. >> reporter: turning to some of his top priorities like securing the southern border, boosting energy production and avoiding overseas conflict. >> i will govern by a simple motto. promises made, promises kept.

we're gonna keep our promises. [ cheers ] nothing will stop me from keeping my word to you, the people. >> reporter: the race ultimately coming down to seven swing states. trump may now sweep all of them. after 11 p.m. the first one was called for him. the former president later winning georgia, then pennsylvania and clinching victory with a win in wisconsin. in county after county across the country improving on his margin of victory in past races. abc news exit polling showing trump gained critical ground particularly among young men and union households. his most surprising surge, among hispanic voters. the best showing for a republican presidential candidate in exit polls since 1976. up 13 points from 2020. although he still trailed harris 53/45. >> we've built the biggest, the broadest, the most unified coalition. they've never seen anything like it in all of american history.

>> trump is now the first former president to return to the white house in more than 130 years and the first convicted felon to be elected. also the oldest. guys, while he was speaking making that address last night, he made no mention of vice president harris. >> robin: when did the trump team know they had victory in hand? >> they started to feel good when they started to see the results in north carolina. he spent more time campaigning there in the final days of this campaign than anywhere else. really all eyes were on all important pennsylvania. the former president campaigning in that state said repeatedly, if we win here, we win the entire thing. when they started to see how much they were racking up the margins in counties they won, even four years ago, that is when they felt they had this in the bag. i got a text from a campaign source just about an hour ago that said it was a good night but it was better than they expected. >> michael: all right, rachel. thank you so much for that. we're going to bring in jon karl. jon, you said on our air last night the greatest comeback in american political history. >> well, when you consider the

way he left office, the impeachments the indictments that came later, the convictions. this was a sweeping victory. he looks like he will be the first president in two decades to win the popular vote. he's likely to sweep all of the battleground states. not just that, he had significant gains in deep blue territory. blue states, big cities. cities like chicago. he did much better in brooklyn, for example, than joe biden had done four years ago. and he comes back to washington, michael, more powerful than when he was here before. if you remember when he first got elected, you had major figures in the republican party who defied him, who stood up to him, opposed him. now he comes as the leader of a republican party that he has remade in his own image. but i have to say now there's an immense challenge. first for donald trump. he wakes up this morning in a country where a significant segment of the population fears what happened last night.

fears what he will do. he needs to find a way to do what he promised he would do, to be a president for all americans. what does he say to those that are deeply disturbed by what happened in fear of what he will do? but there is also in that, a challenge to the democrats. you know, kamala harris. what does she say today? she called him a fascist. now she must give a concession speech. i was in the white house when he came to meet barack obama after he won in 2016. democrats were singly distraught. barack obama stood up, welcomed him in, met with him for an hour one on one. came out, promised to help him in the transition. told the white house staff to cooperate and to make this a smooth transition. how does joe biden handle this, given how, just how brutally tough this campaign was? this will be a challenge for all sides, to say the least. >> robin: we'll wait and see what he has to say, and also kamala harris as well.

let's bring in our political director and washington bureau chief rick klein. just break down the numbers on how this was such a convincing win. >> we talked the last couple weeks about the paths to victory. turned out donald trump took all of the paths. started in the south with georgia and north carolina, as rachel said, they could tell they were having a good night. pennsylvania so decisive for that campaign because it was the biggest battleground and a must win for kamala harris. then wisconsin ended up being the clincher. as we speak this morning, we are still seeing trump up in the other battleground states, including michigan, nevada, arizona. it's possible that he comes out on top in all seven of the battlegrounds which would just be a wild finish. but you know, we talked all campaign about how close this race was, how close the polling was. we always knew it could tip in the same direction. those people in battleground states that once represented the blue wall. they ended up all tipping red, just like they did for him eight years ago.

as we've been talking about this morning he ran up big margins, even in blue states. it was across the country, suburban areas, rural area, even big cities and bluer parts of the map all tipped in his direction. a big red wave. it ended up being so decisive that he will, as jon mentioned, almost certainly win the popular vote. he's up 5 million as of this hour in the popular vote. he didn't win that either time he ran before, either 2016 when he won or 2020 when he lost. >> robin: his base really, really showed up. show even in those blue areas. mary bruce was up. our chief white house correspondent. she's joining us here this morning. take a look inside the harris campaign. >> hey, robin, good morning. the silence from the kamala harris campaign is deafening. it was around 11 p.m. last night when we started to see signs they were seeing the writing on the wall. the campaign sending a memo urging their team to be patient, cautioning this could take awhile. then shortly before 1 a.m. harris' senior campaign adviser

took to the stage at howard university to inform the crowd harris herself would not be speaking. the post mortems will just beginning but there will be a lot of questions about the focus of her campaign. whether she focused too much on her opponent and not enough on the issues, with the economy top of mind for voters. there are a lot of questions about whether she failed to differentiate herself enough from biden. we remember the moment when she was on "the view" when she said she couldn't think of anything she would do differently from the president. and there will be lots of questions about joe biden's decision, too. should he have exited the race sooner? would things have been different if democrats had a primary instead of harris' condensed 107 day campaign? now, it is possible we may get a sense of what harris thinks went wrong when she finally addresses her supporters. >> george: let's bring in donna brazile, chris christie, reince priebus. reince, let me begin with you.

this was even more sweeping than you predicted yesterday. what is the mandate now for donald trump? >> i predicted he would be over 300 electoral votes. i predicted it would be 304, 310. i'm not surprised what happened. the mandate is massive because it was one of the biggest victories in modern political history, maybe one of the biggest political victories in our lifetime. the reason it was so massive was that he created a diverse blue collar coalition in this country made up of hispanic voters, black voters, asian voters. it was across the board. it wasn't just a ground game thing. the ground game was pretty good on the early vote, as we talked about. he came reasonably close in new jersey, in minnesota, in new mexico. there was no ground game there. people heard what donald trump was preaching and people in this country liked it. and they rejected the policies

of kamala harris and joe biden. and there was no room for her in this debate. i mean, he's gonna win the popular vote perhaps. >> george: when you look at the breadth and depth of this victory, is there anything the democrats could have done? >> george, my list is so long, i may have a whole new book out by the end of the day. i thought it could be an electoral gumbo coalition when you repair that blue wall for good. but to expand the electorate. i thought she could expand with more young people. i thought with abortion on the ballot, freedom, democracy, that she could have a sweeping turnout operation. look, for every two votes that they got out in cities, donald trump was getting four to five votes in the rural areas and suburbs. for whatever reason, the democratic coalition collapsed in places where they should have been strong. i was talking to chris throughout the night about blue states like illinois coming in two hours late.

his state, new jersey, coming in almost four hours late. look, democrats are gonna learn a lesson. they're gonna rebuild the party, expand the coalition. it's gonna take time. we shouldn't focus on finger pointing and what went wrong. with 107 day campaign. we should focus on how we rebuild for the future. >> george: donald trump talked about unifying the country last night. can he do it? will he do it? >> can he do it? sure. he could. well, look, he could decide for himself that what he wants his legacy to be is that he took this election victory and he turned it into something bigger. and he likes bigger. and so if he could become convinced that some achievements that people could agree on would be bigger, maybe he'll do that. will he? i think that's up for grabs. i think if you base it on his past performance, you'd say probably not. but, look, this is a guy who's made this now extraordinary comeback. i don't think there's any other

way to put it. now he's got to decide. i said this earlier this morning, george. from the time he gets in there, he's a lame duck. certainly he's got two years i think to do substantive things before the next phase starts to come and people start to look ahead. that tends to focus the mind a bit, too, on what i want to get done. if i'm going to campaign for another four years. i think can he do it? yes. will he do it, that's anybody's best guess. >> george: what do the first 100 days look like? >> he's going to try to fulfill the promises he made. >> george: which ones? that's what i'm asking. >> well, i mean, number one, i think he's going to sign an executive order on deporting criminal illegal immigrants that are here, violent criminals. number two, he's gonna open up drilling leases. obviously, he's gonna get his cabinet through. gonna work on taxes. that's probably gonna take up

the entire legislative agenda is the renewal of the tax cuts. looks like he'll get it. he's going to have an increased -- he's dragging with him new senators, probably will keep the house of representatives. donald trump is gonna go in there with a national mandate, along with a house and a senate that's republican. >> george: what about pardoning the january 6th protesters, firing the fbi director christopher wray? >> i expect he will do all those things. people should understand, donald trump came into this campaign, especially at the conclusion telling the american people exactly what he was going to do. it wasn't like he was hiding it in the end. he was bolder at the end. and the american people heard the choices and they overwhelmingly picked donald trump along with all the things some people may not like. but that's what he won on. >> george: donna, what does that mean for democrats? what should kamala harris say today? what should democrats do in those first 100 days? >> you win with grace and lose with humility.

i think she has to explain to her supporters where she fell short and she also has to, you know, hopefully talk about the future. the future where the president, vice president invite the president-elect to the white house. work on a transition. i mean, part of what the american people want is to see us work together. i think that's something that she has to do today. i don't think she needs to go through recrimination and figure out who did what right or whatever. she needs to focus on the future like she said during the campaign. and that involves transition with donald trump. >> george: chris, if you were still advising donald trump, what is the first thing you would tell him to do on january 20th? >> first thing i'd tell him to do on january 20th is to make sure that he puts together the best group of people he can possibly put together to take full advantage of the mandate that the american people have now given him. but that can evaporate very quickly if you're under scrutiny and criticism, people start to back away. so put the best group of people around that you can.

i'd say, george, we've been talking about democracy a lot in this campaign, both sides threw it around a lot. this is democracy. some people will be happy, some unhappy. democracy is what happened last night. now what i think donald trump needs to do is get a great group of people around him, try to take full advantage of what he's been given. >> george: much more on the consequences coming up in our next hour. let's go to ginger. >> ginger: thank you, george. we had three reported tornados west of lafayette, louisiana. the video there. the damage as well. now that front moving east. able to squeeze together a lot of rain in georgia especially. significant flash flood risk goes all the way up to augusta along the south carolina state line. that's just one of the stories. we're also watching hurricane rafael. just got the update. it is a category 2 hurricane. very strong. gonna pass through western cuba. mud slides and heavy, heavy rain on top of 100, 110 mile per hour rain. key west has a tropical storm

voters. >> rebecca: 45% of them did not feel like that was the case. good morning. the dow set to open 1200 points higher this morning. i have been speaking to a number of traders on wall street. what you're seeing reflected in stocks is relief that the election is over, over with a decisive, not a contested victory. we came into this election with the s&p500 up 21%. the best election year for stock since 1936. but when i talked to voters all over the country, it wasn't their 401k's or the strong jobs market they were focusing on. when people talked about the economy as their top issue, what they meant was inflation. higher prices. those hit people on the tightest budgets the very hardest, at the grocery store, in rent and childcare. the question now is what president elect trump will do about it, and will that move the dial? there's some combination of tax cuts and strict tariffs he will impose. we heard from elon musk the

victory will deliver temporary hardship. guys? >> robin: our thanks to you. some of the other top issues. the border and reproductive rights. elizabeth schulze is in the border state arizona. elizabeth, arizona just one of ten states where abortion was on the ballot. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, robin. in those ten states, seven of them, including here in arizona voters decided to expand abortion access. propositions in arizona, colorado, maryland, montana, missouri, nevada and new york passed with broad support. that means those state constitutions will now be amended to enshrine the right to abortion. this is notable in missouri where the total ban will be reversed. on the other hand, in florida, voters failed to meet a 60% vote threshold. they did not pass the measure. its six week ban will stay in place. voters are also keeping in place a total abortion ban in south

dakota and 12 week ban in nevada. this is still a galvanizing issue for voters. the winning streak for abortion rights initiatives on the ballot since the end of roe v. wade has now come to an end, robin. >> robin: what can you tell us about the immigration ballot measure that passed there in arizona? >> reporter: this is a proposition that passed with broad support. more than 50% of the vote based on the current tally. what this will do is make it a state crime for anyone crossing into the u.s. from the mexico. so that means basically local and state law enforcement could arrest anyone who they suspect crossed the border without proper authorization. judges would also be able to issue deportation orders under this proposition. it mimics a similar law that was passed in texas, but that law, robin, is still winding its way through the courts.

>> robin: we do remember that. thank you. mike? >> michael: let's bring in one of president elect donald trump's senior adviser, jason miller. mr. miller, thank you for joining us this morning. how is president elect donald trump reacting this morning? >> well, he was doing great a couple hours ago. i didn't want to call in case he wanted to sleep. after receiving such a massive victory last night, keep in mind he is on pace for 312 electoral votes even bigger than his win in 2016, winning the popular vote, the first time a republican has done that in two decades. setting this mandate for change that he can fix the economy and secure the border. michael, you look at the way the president built this new coalition, winning upwards of one-third of the votes from voters of color all the way across the country with african-american supporter, latino american supporters, arab american supporters. the message has been sent. people are sick and tired of the direction is economy is going. they want that border secure. the great thing about president

trump coming back, he's already done it before. he knows how to bring prices down. people are optimistic that it can be fixed right away. >> michael: we'll see if that's possible. has he spoken with vp harris yet? >> as of the last time i spoke with president trump they had not connected. but we will see what happens today. such a big overwhelming victory last night with the networks calling it, associated press and others that now the time is to look forward putting together that transition team. obviously, as we head into the white house i think what president trump said last night when he was up there on the stage was he wants to heal the country. this is the time when we put aside the political divisions. we bring democrats, republicans, people who aren't necessarily even involved with politics together. that has to start at the top. that's the message that president trump sent. he wants to bring the country together. >> michael: he did talk about unity which we saw in his speech last night, early this morning. what specifically will he do to reach out to voters who supported vice president harris?

>> yeah. well, number one, you saw what he said last night was that everybody is impacted by the economy. he's going to put more money back in the pockets of every single voter whether they voted for him or not. he is going to make our streets safe, securing the border. we know he's the one who can restore peace. we had no new wars under president trump. that's the mindset. that's the approach. even last night when president trump was speaking, he spoke of a number of different names, people who are democrats, people who weren't affiliated with politics in any way, shape or form that he can bring together. again, that starts at the top. i think in this campaign there was too much that was made about division and hatred toward other sides. the reason why president trump won, why he won so big, he told every voter what he was going to do for them, how he would improve their lives. michael, in campaigns, you have to tell people what you're going to do for them. president trump did that successfully. >> michael: he told everyone what he was going to do.

he said he has unprecedented and powerful mandate. so what will he do on day 1? >> great question. so a number of things you can do with executive orders, such as put all of his strong border policies back in place. the previous administration didn't need any acts of congress to break the border so all we have to do with regard to the boarder is put his policies back in place and we can secure it and start making the country more safe. we can get energy exploration going which that will help bring down the cost of things, out of control inflation we've seen. other things take acts of congress and such. but you start off on day 1. that i think was one of the key propositions of why voters looked to president because they've seen him do it before. this isn't something where you hear politicians talk about things on the campaign trail and you don't know if it will come together. president trump built the greatest economy we ever had. we had a secure border. he can put that back in place and the voters know he's already done it. >> michael: in terms of his

incoming administration last week robert f. kennedy jr., a vaccine skeptic, said trump promised him control of public health agencies. how much authority will the president give him? >> well, it's far too early to talk about specific positions. the president has put together two great co-chairs for his transition effort. they will put a number of options in front of the president. the president ultimately will go and pick who he wants. some may be senate confirmed positions. some might be appointed positions. he is going to put the best people in the positions to where he feels they can bring that change. michael, the country is going in the wrong direction. upwards of 70%, 72% of americans say things are going the wrong way. people want change. look at the diverse community, the blue wall states, the teamsters, union workers. everybody who rejected the status quo and said we want to go back to how we had it with president trump. that message is clearly sent.

when you win the popular vote like that, you have a mandate for change. that's exactly what president trump will do. >> michael: it will definitely be a change. jason miller, thank you so much for joining us. we appreciate your time this morning. >> thank you. >> michael: we'll be right back. 't like it? (woman) this time is different. this has real chicken, sweet potatoes, and brown rice. (man) oh yeah, blue tastefuls is different. (woman) looks like it's blue tastefuls from now on.

trump. four on going cases involving dozens of charges. also three civil cases. senior investigative correspondent aaron katersky has been tracking them all. >> reporter: reclaiming the presidency may be donald trump's get out of jail free card. trump said he would fire special counsel jack smith within two seconds, erasing the two federal prosecutions he brought. one over subverting the 2020 election, the other for retaining classified documents. smith could try to turn over the january 6th case to career prosecutors, maybe issue a report about his findings. but trump, in all likelihood, would face no legal consequences. the classified documents case has already been dismissed. the special counsel's appeal to reinstate it would likely be withdrawn. trump's criminal case in georgia produced this i conic image of the campaign. his mug shot. any trial would have to wait until 2029. trump is scheduled to be sentenced later this month for falsifying business records. it's hard to see how he faces

any meaningful sentence. an appeals course in new york is considering whether trump must pay a civil fraud judgment. it's possible trump will begin his presidency owing nearly half billion dollars. guys? >> george: thank you very much. michael? >> michael: we're going to have more from our chief legal analyst dan abrams who is here with us this morning. president elect trump convicted in the hush money case, scheduled to be sentenced november 26th. what happens now? >> remember, his lawyers have been pushing to delay this. seems that was a smart decision. because now you don't just have a criminal defendant, you have a president-elect who is going to be sentenced. i do not see any way that this judge now sentences him to any kind of meaningful time. i don't see how he gives him any jail time at all. one other point on jack smith, which is i would expect jack smith is probably going to resign before he lets donald trump actually fire him. >> robin: the three civil cases that he's appealing. what about those? >> that's a different game.

that's about money. he can't now take back those judgments that were held against him. very different when you've got the government trying to take away someone's freedom, as you do in a criminal case, versus taking away someone's money. the money judgments will remain. some from the government, some from a private plaintiff. the appeals will continue. he may still owe all of that money even as president. >> robin: all right. we'll see what happens. dan, thanks so much. we'll be right back. even when you have heart failure. but when he had shortness of breath, carpal tunnel syndrome, and lower back pain, we wondered, could these be warning signs of something bigger? thank goodness we called his cardiologist because these were signs of attr-cm, a rare and serious disease... ...that gets worse over time. if you see any of the

members of his transition team. and another example of the history made in this election, trump will be the first president elected to nine consecutive terms since grover cleveland. >> george: let's bring back rick klein. take a deep dive on the trump coalition. >> george, we were focused on the gender gap. we saw it emerge. ten point gender gap among men. donald trump had a ten point advantage. it was the opposite among women. a big gap among white noncollege educated voters. this was a striking, big part of the coalition. a 30 point advantage. this was probably the shocker of the night. the edge among latino voters. often this is double digits. kamala harris had only an eight point lead among latino voters. this might have been the biggest determination of all. was something we covered in our polls. are you better off or worse off than you were four years ago? 45% of the country saying they are worse off. only 25% said they were better off. those were just very very

difficult streams to swim against if you were k harris and may have been the inviting factor in trump getting what he election. >> george: rick klein, thank you very much. robin? >> robin: the election and the supreme court. let's bring in abc news contributor kate shaw for what it could mean. good morning, kate. what kind of checks are we talking about here in a trump second term and possible future appointments? >> this morning i'm thinking about the supreme court in a couple different terms. one, will the supreme court act as a meaningful check on a second term presidency? actually during the first trump administration they were a real check. they struck down terms to end the daca program. that was a different court. trump has transformed the supreme court. this court is not one that i think is likely to act as a comparable check. those appointments are the other thing i'm thinking about. he's already made three appointment. the question is how many more could he make? i think he's likely to get to a place, justice thomas and alito, who are in their 70s.

the real question is whether the three democratic appointees can stay the course. another vacancy would transform the court in a way we really haven't seen before. >> robin: always appreciate your insight, kate. thank you very much. michael? >> michael: thank you, robin. the economy was a top issue for many voters with almost half the polls saying they are worse off than four years ago. let's go back to rebecca jarvis. >> rebecca: nice to see you again, michael. there were so many ways you can define the economy. growth, job, stocks. when voters i talk to as the economy about their top issue coming into this election, they said they meant inflation. while inflation has come way down, prices have not. that hits everyone and in particular those on tight budgets the hardest, at the grocery store, in rent, child care. it is nagging and it is constant. inflation is also a world wide phenomenon coming out of the pandemic. we saw incumbents in the uk, france, japan all lost ground

with people feeling less secure than they did four years ago. the question now is what exactly president elect trump can do about it? economists say he's not likely to move the dial substantially, at least for a year. it is a very different time than when trump first came to office. back then inflation in the runup to the 2016 election was flat. in some months prices were even trending lower. what you see this morning out of the stock market is a lot of cheering. stocks are pointing higher. that's because there is a decisive victory. the biggest fear on wall street coming into this election is that it would be a contested election, long drawn out, and real questions about who actually won. >> robin: that was not the case. >> rebecca: not the case. >> robin: thank you. another top issue, abortion on ed the ballot in ten states. let's go back to elizabeth schulze with how both initiatives fared. good morning, elizabeth. >> reporter: hey, good morning again, robin. this is a win for abortion

rights advocates here in arizona. it's one of seven states including colorado, montana, missouri, new york, where voters decided to amend their constitution to enshrine the right to an abortion. similar initiatives in florida, south dakota, nebraska failed. so their total or strict abortion bans will now stay in place. when you look at the exit polling data, 19% of women say abortion is the most important issue to them. that goes up to 42% among women under the age of 30. up until now, every time abortion had been on the ballot since the end of roe v. wade the abortion rights position won. this is clearly still a motivating issue for voters but we are seeing there might be a ceiling to some of that support. >> robin: i know you've been up all night long. thank you very much for being with us this morning. appreciate you, as always. top leaders around the world

reacting to the election results. let's go to ian pannell. good morning, ian. >> reporter: yeah, good morning, robin. i think presidents and prime ministers have been tripping overthemselves to try and send congratulations to donald trump. here in europe, leaders are bracing for what another trump term could mean after threats to end military aid to ukraine and withdraw u.s. support for nato allies who don't spend enough on defense. trump has repeatedly said he' end the war in 24 hours if elected. president zelenskyy appealing to trump to maintain support. the kremlin spokesman said he is not aware if putin is willing to congratulate trump. and i think japan will have concerns. perhaps mexico, too will have to worry about trump's threats about migration and tariffs. the city of love bucking the trend with the mayor of paris writing this is bad news for the world, democracy, europe, climb and ukraine. there have been genuine well

wishes. israeli leader netanyahu celebrating what he calls a huge victory and new begin. hungary's leader calling this the greatest comeback in u.s. political history. guys. >> robin: all right, ian, thank you. >> george: coming up more on trump's unprecedented come back. >> robin: also ahead, melania trump. what her return to the white house could look like and what her agenda might be in a second trump term. >> michael: we cannot wait to introduce you to an inspiring young man. a college football player who's now raising his younger siblings. we have a life changing surprise for them that you do not want to miss. lara is with a special guest. hey, lara. >> lara: i'm with dan pashman. he is cooking $20 dinners. he's taking the challenge. we're doing it. how to make a delicious meal for a family of four on a massive budget. tory's here with holiday deals and steals. it's all coming up on "good morning america." ng up next on america! ♪ ♪

>> george: there's a look at the white house. donald trump will be returning there as the 47th president of the united states. want to bring in our contributor, mark updegrove. mark, thank you for joining us this morning. try to put this in some historical context. >> i'm not sure you can, george. this is, without question, has been mentioned before, the greatest political comeback in american political history. that simple. you can compare to it grover cleveland, who had nonconsecutive presidential terms, too. he was the 22nd and 24th president. but donald trump had to overcome

two impeachments, a re-election loss in 2020 to joe biden. a failed insurrection attempt. 34 convictions on felony counts. that's remarkable. and yet he survived and won this election. it's an emblematic victory of donald trump, after the assassination attempt in butler, pennsylvania. he is raising his fist defiantly. that is a symbol of donald trump's political career and of this campaign, george. donald trump survived and lived to fight another day. it's a remarkable mandate and a testament to the resilience of donald trump. >> george: remarkable certainly is a testament to the resilience. let's walk through again. two impeachments, a felony conviction, indictments for trying to overturn the election, indictments for violating the rules over classified documents. any other time, any one of those would have been considered disqualifying for a candidate for president of the united

states. do you have an understanding of why it wasn't this time? >> the only thing i think, george, it goes back to the economy. these kitchen table issues that ran deep in america. there were two campaigns that this echoed. one was ronald reagan in 1980 when he beat jimmy carter the incumbent president, by asking american, are you better off today than you were four years ago? overwhelmingly, americans felt they weren't. ronald reagan was elected in a virtual landside at the time. then in 1992, a campaign you're very familiar with. bill clinton, who beat the insum bent george h.w. bush. his political adviser, james carville, urging him to say, it's the economy, stupid. you have to sound a message about the economy. at the end of the day, despite the character flaws, the marked character flaws of donald trump, the americans were thinking

about kitchen table issues. while donald trump has an inability often to tell the truth, the truth to so many americans is the price of eggs and the price of gas, and things that wind up on their kitchen table, having them think about their pocketbooks, george. i think that was ultimately the overriding issue in this campaign. >> george: we've never seen a presidential candidate or president fixate so much on his opponents, calling them the enemy within, vowing retribution. what do you think that means for a second trump term? >> we heard trump last night talk about needing to bring the country together, needing to unite the country. he has the mandate to do that. he spoke the right words. as you suggest, throughout the campaign he talked about the vengeance he would bring, the rath he would bring to the presidency if he were to become president once again. we saw in his first term he was incapable of being a united. he was a divider. he was naturally discordant and

chaotic. so we will see if he makes good on that promise, as he said. he wants to make good on his promise. he promised to unite americans. george, we will see if this term is any different than it was when he was the 45th president of the united states. >> george: mark updegrove, thanks. robin? >> robin: he's not the only one returning to the white house. close look at melania trump, set to return as first lady once again. lara gonna share more of that. >> lara: robin, good morning to you. melania trump may not love the spotlight but that's where she is. she seemed relieved to be done with the attention that comes with being first lady. she moved back to new york after the election. that privacy is no more. we first sat down with melania trump in 2015 shortly after her husband announced he would be running for president. >> i encourage him. >> you did? you encouraged him? >> because i know what he will

do and what he can do for america. he loves the american people and he wants to help them. >> lara: born in a small railway town in slovenia, she studied architecture, fluent in five languages. modelling would become her career. that's how she met donald trump in 1998. seven years later they married. they would go on to have a son, baron. she would stay largely out of the spotlight until her huh band's political aspirations dictated the course of the family's history. melania was also forced to defend her husband after comments he made about grabbing women were leaked. >> they were like boy talk. he was believed on, like, egged on from the host to say dirty and bad stuff. >> lara: once in the white house, she launched her signature initiative the be best campaign to combat bullying. >> i could say i'm the most bullied person in the world.

one of them. >> lara: sticking to her message when asked about any connection between her campaign for kindness and her husband's sometimes aggressive online rhetoric. >> i don't agree always what he posts, but his action is action. i tell him that. i know he will get criticism. it will not stop me to do what is right. >> lara: mrs. trump was dealt a blow when her long time aide secretly recorded their conversations. later penning a tell all book. in the years between president trump's time in office she moved back to that quiet life she seemed to cherish in new york city, staying out of the public eye. as the 2024 campaign got under way, she appeared only a few times on the campaign trail. >> let us chart together with a shared vision that builds on

american greatness. >> lara: but she made headlines after publishing her memoir and defended a woman's right to choose. >> what does my body my choice mean? >> lara: a position at odds with her husband's viewpoint at that time. last night she was by her huh band's side along with their son baron. she took to social media to show this photo of baron casting his vote writing, voted for the first time for his dad. >> robin: baron, i heard he is really tech savvy. he was really encouraging his father for those podcasts that were very male oriented. really in his father's ear about that. it really paid off. >> lara: we will see more of him in the days to come. >> robin: we'll see. >> michael: joining us is author of "the art of her deal." the untold story of melania trump. mary jordan. ms. jordan, thank you for joining us. this will be her second term as first lady. she remains a bit of mystery. what will her role be throughout donald trump's second term?

>> i think it will be a little different than the first time because remember the trumps, melania and donald, were shocked when they won in 2016. this time they were expecting it. this time melania is no longer a newbie on this. she is getting more assertive and confident. on the other hand, we're not gonna be seeing her as we see jill biden and other first ladies because melania is as unconventional as her husband is. she just will disappear when she wants to and come out when she wants to. >> michael: speaking of something that could be unconventional, there is some talk she may choose to not have the white house be her primary residence. is that a real possibility? >> i think there's a mistaken notion that she really hated being first lady. she really did like a lot of it. she loved meeting foreign leaders. it's just that she wants to do what she wants to do. she has told people, look, i'm not the one elected. she wants to go to mar a lago

and hang out by herself for two weeks, she'll do that. she will be in the white house. she loves a lot of the pomp and circumstance of it. >> michael: all right. thank you so much for joining us. we appreciate your time. >> thanks. >> michael: hey, ginger. let's go to ginger. >> ginger: i wanted to show you that category 2 hurricane that will make landfall today in cuba. will be intensified. moving pretty fast, northwest about 14 miles an hour. hurricane warnings not just there, but tropical storm warnings for key west. the western keys, watch for some of the outer bands. it then stalls in the gulf. states there. but here's what's going to happen today. a few tornadoes could even spin up, not just for the western keys, but in southwest florida. so i'd say from naples all the way along the coast there. watch for that threat. let's get a check it out a little closer to home. >> good wednesday morning. we
