3:03 am
and -- law enforcement in new york city. they're here tonight. these are -- spectacular people. some times underappreciated unfortunately. but we appreciate them. we know what they go through. so, it's been what they call an historic event. but to be really historic, we have to do a great job. and i promise you that i will not let you down. we will do a great job. we will do a great job. i look very much forward to being your president. and hopefully at the end of two years or three years or four years or maybe even eight years, you will say, so many of you
3:04 am
will say that that was something that you were really very proud to do. and i can, thank you very much. and i can only say that while the campaign is over, our work on this movement is now really just beginning. we are going to got to work immediately for the american people. and we are going to be so proud of your president you will be so proud. again. it's my honor. it is an amazing evening, an amazing two year period. and i love this country. thank you. thank you very much. thank you to mike pence, thank you, everybody. >> congratulations, mr. president.
3:05 am
states. giving a conciliatory speech tonight. thanking his supporters. thanking his family. talking about the need to bind the wounds of division in this country. and saying, our work is really just now beginning. thanking hillary clinton. in a way that we haven't heard before that we owe her a debt of that he wants to be the uniter of all people. and he made a point of saying, i am the president of all people. >> it was a very untrumplike speech from what we have heard throughout the campaign. >> well we will ask him whether he could be conciliatory, and magnanimous in defeat. we found out that he can be magnanimous in victory. >> i can be politically correct, so absolutely politically correct when the moment calls for it.
3:06 am
like that. he gave it. >> bob, talk about now, the challenges for sum within as they transition from booing a candidate to trying to govern and becoming -- filling that office, the awesomeness of the office and the responsibilities that go with it. >> i think we are kind of in unchartered territory now. we, really don't know. this is -- this is a totally new and different group. than we have seen arrive in washington before. where this goes from here. i mean it is different. it's -- this was a different campaign. and what happens now is different as well. >> i think it is encouraging to say he wants to reach out to all americans. campaign is over. the work is just beginning. that he wants to do a good job for everybody. we haven't heard him speak that way before. >> because he said he wanted partnership, not conflict. which was also something that,
3:07 am
the first person to become president of the united states without having held previous elected office since dwight eisenhower. he did it without the advantage of having won world war ii. >> here is the immediate challenge for him. the rhetoric was basically about as good as we have heard from him and you could deliver. he will have a supreme court seat to fill right hillary clinton would probably not have. talking to republicans in the senate. they would have voted him through. so he has a supreme court. supreme court fights get nasty pretty fast. there is that. plus, the, dismantling of obama care. the building of the wall. his policy agenda. right away. is -- is one that, that is going to require some, some massaging. so that will be interesting. where he puts his marker as he starts to talk about.
3:08 am
and a republican congress. >> there is a filibuster in the senate. >> they filibuster the senate. his supreme court nominee. which will return the court to being a conservative majority. then you are going to have a fight in washington. >> you don't know where the other part its. this is going to be. i don't care what you see. this is going to be greet with surprise. around the world. >> maybe, maybe, russia's pleased with it. as -- as we were hearing. from, from our reporter. i don't know how the rest of the world is going to react with, to this, except with surprise. they're going to find it hard to believe. i think. >> they'll probably react depending on how he maintains a sense that he did in this speech or in terms of the people that he chooses, selects to be in his cabinet. that will be an indication of what kind of government he wants to have. >> major garrett is at the trump campaign headquarters.
3:09 am
panel. talking governing. my sources within the trump transition team tell me that, as of last thursday, all of the work set before that transition team had been completed. meaning they put together all of the policy binders. put together all the binders on possible cabinet and sub-cabinet nominations apin theees. put together all of the bindings on other political appointis that a future trump presidency should it occur might have to have ready for the work to begin team, has been completed. and is ready for donald trump, now president-elect of the united states. so when donald trump told the country tonight, he is going to got to work. he has plenty of binders and plenty of staffers on that transition team. who have done the work for him. to begin that process. couple of other observations. donald trump has said from the very beginning of this campaign, that he saw something in america
3:10 am
and in terms of people who wanted to be a part of a rejuvenated american dream but felt that was no longer open to them. he tried to speak to those people. before he spoke to anyone else. in a way. that they fundamentally understood without any filtering from any other source. and even when controversies would arise. and trump's poll numbers would dip or there would be some defections from the republican party over something that trump said. those people, who heard trump first. never left his side. trump was speaking to them tonight when he talked about a country to be proud in. a country that will aim for the best. never accept anything less than the best. those word always rez nated with his supporters. one last historical analogy that i have never forgotten since newt gingrich. long term trump supporter put before me several months ago. to understand donald trump, you have to understand three american figures. andrew jackson. a populist president who toppled
3:11 am
a republican president who challenged the existing republican approach to business. and was a person of strength and projected strength. and pt barnum. some one who marketed himself for the benefit of his business and image of himself. newt gingrich told me, donald trump is a combination of all three of those figures. and his upside potential is enormous. and downside risk is also rather sizable. even in the last days of the openly if trump, the downside would undercut the potential upside. it did not. the upside now lays before the country. lays before trump. and his transition team. guys back to you. >> and, nancy cordes is over at the jacob javits center in new york where hillary clinton's watch party broke up about an hour ago. >> nancy? >> scott, the lights are out here the they have already
3:12 am
apart. what is so fascinating is that for all of the talk over the past many weeks about the possibility of donald trump not accepting the outcome of this election, in the end, it was hillary clinton and her campaign chair, john podesta speaking for her who came out after 2:00 eastern time and told everyone to go home because things were still up in the air. yet a short time later, we can now confirm, hillary clinton did call donald trump to concede. sot is the one who has not delivered a concession speech at least on election night. i am told that there are number of clinton campaign officials still at brooklyn headquarters, crunching the numbers. trying to figuree out what went wrong. trying to figuree out if there are any voting irregularities that, they should examine or call attention to. every single campaign aide i have seen here tonight, scott,
3:13 am
they weren't just confident at the beginning of the night that she was going to win, they were sure of it. there was no other possible outcome. in their mind. not because they were cocky or being fanciful but because all of the data that they were looking at was telling them that she was going to win. and that may be part of the reason that you never saw her here tonight. which is, just like her campaign aides, it was very difficult for hillary clinton to accept the news as well. >> nancy an interesting point she makes there. about as much data, polling, money, consultants, the whole obama analytics team, could not fend off what has been an incredible uprising for change in this country and for the unique person that donald trump is. >> you know it will be fascinating when he starts to govern. because a lot of times when people would say, well you know you are supposed to do it this way. not doing it that way. doing it the other way.
3:14 am
in fact when things were too calm he some times would create chaos to turn the conversation on his turf. what does that look like when you govern it? may be the route to new success in a number of parts of washington that have been clotted. but it is going to be an exciting ride. and there are going to be a lot of people who need to join in the team who may not know how to work or need to learn how to work in an environment where you have got a leader who leads in that way. that will be, we have never seen led like that. in part because the office constrains you, you can't do it. but on the other hand we thought there was a lot in politics that constrained him. nothing did. >> guys, he said all along from the very beginning. this was not a campaign. this was a movement. he made, made reference to that again tonight. a movement he says of hard working people who love their country. and at least from the numbers we are looking at right now. close to 58 million people, agreed with him. that this is a movement.
3:15 am
a reaction to a washington that has ceased to work. the purpose of government is to improve the lives of citizens. our government has been just gridlocked. it's been unable to do anything. i said earlier today, you know it took him eight months to approve funds to find the vaccine for the zika virus. this is a reaction to what didn't hap men as much as it was a victory for d >> and charlie rose has the insights of our political panel. charlie. >> scott, thank you. you can say that everybody who achieved the presidency, somehow it changes them. they can't imagine what it is look to be there and to feel the burd in of the office. and his first official act, to accept the concession from secretary clinton, donald trump did it with some grace. and, respect for his opponent.
3:16 am
been working hard on the transition and that they have reams of books and had thought deeply about what they would do if the opportunity to girch came. i turn next to peggy noonan. thoughts? >> i think his victory speech which many people including perhaps he did not know he would be making tonight. was a very, was one that was worthy to the moment. it showed us a trump who was graver than usual, who was more he said things like, no dream is too big. no challenge is too great. he reached out. i think he was trying very hard, i think he was being sensitive to those he understood he had to reassure the one half of the united states of america that did not vote for him. so i thought it was -- equal to the moment. and i was glad to see its tone and hear its ring. >> michelle?
3:17 am
he spoke in an ok taf that we have not heard thus far in the campaign. and, and with a cadence that we haven't heard. this was perhaps his first demonstration of something as, as a leader that we hadn't seen before. he didn't throw an elbow. but he also talked about rebuilding. it will be interesting to know what that means. is he just talking about infrastructure? is he just talking about building the economy? or also talking about unspooling the legacy of barack obama? barack and for some people they view it as something that has been quite successful. will he start taking apart key provisions of the obama legacy? and so it sounded quite graceful. but was he also sending a signal. that change is coming. big change is coming. >> charlie, what i keep coming become to and thinking about trump's victory. the implications we will see going forward. his coalition didn't just
3:18 am
college whites on an activist level, it clued steven ban non, identify themselves as white nationalists, parts of american life that have been suppressed for a very long time. so looking for ward, i think i am a little less interested in the mechanics of a trump government and more interested what does it moon that a candidate in a lot of ways ran with a nod and wink towards those people is now the president of the united states. but whut do what does that mean for muslim-americans, for the groups of people trump targeted in his campaign. i think that is the question that should be driving a lot of us going forward. because i do not think we should take lightly that, those facts. >> the question will be -- will he govern differently than the way he campaigned? often governing as some one, i think governor cuomo said, governing is pros and campaign and poetry. we well now see what the prose
3:19 am
that was said that was so important. governing is one thing. also the messages that you send. we have this -- odd moment in america where we are passing the baton from the nation's first black president to a candidate who was endorsed by the kkk and did not denuns that. a -- not denounce that. as president you send a message to the electorate. governance is one thing. but how people live and reaction on the ground is something different. >> aboutio >> yes, of course. but let me -- >> you love words. >> i do indeed. i think we have witnessed tonight something epical and grave. i think it is the beginning of a new era whose shape and form and content are not known to us. and are not clear. whose personnel and exact direction are unknown.
3:20 am
i want my word to be, god bless our beloved country. >> it was hand historic night. we all look forward to understanding how it goes from here. back to scott and norah at the desk. >> brilliant conversation there, charlie, and some really interesting points to amplify here. what is barack obama going to say? he has called donald trump unfit. he called him and what will this mean for obama's legacy? it means it is in jeopardy? >> january 20th, president obama is going to be standing next to donald trump at the capitol watching him being sworn in. >> well, i mean, one of the first things that donald trump has said he is going to do is, roll back obamacare. which was -- the president's main legacy. and what other things are going to happen here? that -- as you know, and he is
3:21 am
congress. and there are priorities here that is going to have to take place. >> we're looking closer into the numbers about how trump pulled off this historic victory tonight. anthony mason has those details. anthony? >> thera. going to look at three pillars of trump's victory. the first was, male voters. men, he won them 53% to 41%. he also won whites without a college degree, by more than a 2:1 margin. 67% to 28%. voters told us the call they they wanted mosten their candidate. a candidate who could bring about change. among those voters. donald trump won 83%. so, huge landslide in that category there. the most important quality. and finally there was a lot of talk after the access hollywood tape and a lot of leading republicans pulled back their endorsement from donald trump. that republicans might in fact flee from him. well that didn't turn out to be the case today. he won nine out of ten republican voter.
3:22 am
gail? >> certainly did, anthony. continuing that conversation. according to the exit poll, 7 in ten said they were dissatisfied with the federal government. 58% of those who made that comment with donald trump. 36% of those went with hillary clinton. it goes back to what he said, from when he started this campaign, not a campaign, a movement of people. that certainly bore itself out today. >> now everybody knows it is only the electoral vote that counts. and donald trump has won that but have a look at how divided the country is. let's look at the popular vote. 57,600,000 for donald trump. 56,855,000 for hillary clinton. that's the popular vote as it is being counted right now. donald trump wins in the popular vote. yes indeed. but it's only about 1% difference. between the two. >> yes. you know, we have seen donald
3:23 am
of the right pitch in his speech. but those 56 million who voted for hillary clinton there are a lot of them who believe he came to this position by playing on racial fears, he was for five years the chief advocate of the idea that president obama was illegitimate he wasn't born in the united states. there are people on the other side of this who are not just going to accept this. we will see what the shape of that response will be and whose, who becomes the voice of that response. you mentioned barack obama the of response. but who, who is? who does? and we have yet to see that part of the story play out. >> yeah. >> couple things. one this is really an hiss toreic achieve. in america. an historic, nothing like this ever happened. secondly, you have to give him credit. he has achieved something that no one, from the beginning, ever believed she could do. >> elaine? >> on the point john was making abut racial decisions. david duke tweeted this is one
3:24 am
my life. make no mistake about it. our people have played a huge role in election trump, make america great again. now at the same time, as trump was reaching out tonight, i was reminded of the latinos that i met at the u.s./mexico border when i did a documentary, latinos for trump. among the most passionate supporters the they felt he was the one who was going to affect change in washington they truly believed in him from the beginning deste controversies. >> bob, what are you reflection on this morning? >> i remember when richard nixon resigned. cbs news correspondent, roger mudd was part of the panel. after that happened. i said roger what is your reaction. he said, you know i think i want to go home and sleep a couple hours and i'll come back and tell you tomorrow. this was totally unexpected. i think certainly from those of
3:25 am
politic politics over the years, i think charlie is right. this is, this is historic. but i don't think we can say right now where this goes from here. >> unexpected not because of any interest in politics. but unexpected because of the polling. the polls were telling us, polls done by many different organizations, many different times, they were all pointing in the direction of the clinton victory. >> the polls and the behavior of the candidate that people said the united states, so many people had found his behavior egregious, at the end of the day it really didn't matter. i take, you know i take some hope in his speech tonight. that he said he wants to reach out. that he wants to build bridges. stand that he wants us al come together each of think that is a really great way to start in this country. there is a lot of healing that needs to happen today. >> if you look to your point, gail. on the questions of has the right experience and right judgment.
3:26 am
numbers. again not what people -- wanted. they wanted change over experience and judgment. >> they're fed up. >> all right. well -- >> yeah. >> change is what they will get. >> and it has been quite a night. >> we hope rerules by hope rather than fear. >> well, his conciliatory victory speech tonight was certainly a very good step in a next four years. we sure are grateful that you stayed here with us. all this time. >> yes, who are you people? >> some times raunchy election of 2016 now comes to a peaceful if improbable end. 70-year-old donald j. trump. sworn in as the 45th president of the united states on january 20th. >> the trump presidency begins in 72 days.
3:27 am
election coverage continues now on our streaming news service, cbsn. there will be much more in just a few hours. >> really? >> yeah. >> who is going to be here? >> charlie and i right back here. >> wearing these same clothes. >> for norah o'donnell and our entire campaign 2016 team, i'm scott pelley. thank you for being with us on cbs. >> i am officially running for president of the united states. >> i >> when mexico sends it people, they're not sending their best. >> i'm running to help working families get a raise! >> we will make america great again. >> the american people are sick and tired of hearing about your damn e-mails. >> it is weak to disparage women. >> a man who can be provoked by a tweet should not be anywhere near the nuclear code. >> i could stand in the middle of fifth avenue and shoot somebody. i wouldn't lose any voters.
3:28 am
hate. >> i humbly accept your nomination. >> for president of the united states. >> russia if you are listening, i hope you are able to find the 30,000 e-mails. >> i'm not making excuses. i said it was a mistake. i regret it. >> this is the single biggest scandal since watergate. >> there is no pay scale. >> we are going to win at the border. >> lock her up! >> you can put half of trump supporters into what i call the basket of deplorables. >> she has tremendous hate in her heart. >> i don't care what he says about me. i care what he says about you. >> i pledge to every citizen of our land that i will be president for all americans. ?
3:30 am
>> announcer: this is the cbs "overnight news." it is my high honor and distinct privilege to introduce to you the president-elect of the united states of america, donald trump. ? ? >> i have just received a call from secretary clinton. she congratulated us, it is about us, on our victory and i congratulated her and her family on a very, very hard-fought campaign.
3:31 am
hillary has worked very long and very hard over a long period of time. and we owe her a major debt of gratitude for her service to our country. i mean that very sincerely. now it is time for america to bind the wounds of division, have to get together. and independents across this nation, why say, it is time for us to come together as one united people. it's time. i pledge to every citizen of our land that i will be president for all americans and this is so
3:32 am
for those who have chosen not to support me in the ps, of which there were a few people, i am reaching out to you for your guidance and your help so that we can work together and unify our great country. as i have said from the beginning, ours was not a campaign but rather an incredible and great movement made up of millions of hard working men and women who love their country and want a better brighter future for themselves and for their families. it is a movement comprised of americans from all races, religions, background and beliefs. who want and expect our
3:33 am
working together we will begin the urgent task of rebuilding our nation and renewing the american dream. i have spent my entire life in business, looking at the untapped potential in projects and in people all over the world. that is now what i want to do for our country. tremendous potential. i have gotten to know our country so well. tremendous potential. it is going to bea beautiful thing. every single american will have the opportunity to realize his or her fullest potential. the forgotten men and women of our country will be forgotten no
3:34 am
we are going to fix our inner cities. and rebuild our highways, bridges, tunnels, airports, schools, hospitals. we are going to rebuild our infrastructure. which will become, by the way, second to none. and we will put millions of our people to work as we rebuild it. of our great veterans. who have been so loyal. i have gotten to know so many over this 1 month journey. the time i have spent with them during this campaign has been among my greatest honors. our veterans are incredible people. we will embark upon a project of national growth and renewal. i will harness the creative
3:35 am
brightest to leverage their tremendous talent for the benefit of all. it is going to happen. we have a great economic plan. we will double our growth. and have the strongest economy anywhere in the world. at the same time -- we will get along with all other nations. willing to get along with us. we will be. we will have great relationships. we expect to have relationships. no dream is too big, no challenge is too great. nothing we want for our future is beyond our reach. america will no longer settle for anything less than the best. we must -- reclaim our country's destiny. and dream big and bold and daring. we have to do that. we are going to dream of things
3:36 am
things and successful things once again. i want to tell -- the world community -- that while we will always put america's interests first, we will deal fairly with everyone. with everyone. all people, and all other nations. we will seek common ground not hos pill t hostility. it has been what they call an historic event. but to be really historic, we ve and i promise you that i will not let you down. we will do a great job. we will do a great job. i look very much forward to being your president. and hopefully at the end of two years or three years or four years or maybe even eight years, you will say, so many of you worked so hard for us, but you will say, that -- you will say
3:37 am
were really very proud to do and i can -- thank you very much -- and i can only say -- that while the campaign is over, our work on this movement is now really just beginning. we are going to got to work immediately for the american people. and we are going to be doing a job that hopefully you will be so proud of your again, it's my honor. it was an amazing evening. it has been an amazing two-year period. and i love this country! thank you. thank you very much. >> thank you to mike pence. thank you, everybody. >> congratulations, mr. president. >> that was donald trump, the
3:40 am
margaret brennan is at the it margaret. >> well the crowd has gathered here, scott, but the silence from the white house is deafening. president obama argued that the very fate of the republic, his words, hinged on his election. and he was on the stump for his successor more than any other president in modern history. donald trump, a man he called uniquely unfit for office is going to deal obama's historic
3:41 am
would protect his signature achievement, obama care which has been damaged in recent months. she had pledged to undertake immigration reform. roll out environmental protections and defend that landmark nuclear deal with iran which trump says he is going to tear up. supreme court nominee, merrick garland doesn't look like he will get confirmed. that will leave us with a split supreme court. trump said he will renegotiate obama's free trade deal wit so this is going to make it very difficult on monday when president obama heads to europe to try to reassure allies that america is going to stand by their defense. particularly considering that trump has made friendly overtures to russia. how is he going to explain this pledge to possibly starting trade deal with china. so this is going to be really difficult for the white house to explain away in the light of day. but, scott, norah, president
3:42 am
america will still be the greatest nation on earth. i think it is safe to say, he didn't think he would wake up to this kind of result. >> margaret, it sounds like, and looks like there is a really large crowd around the white house. what's going on? >> scott, there has been a crowd gathering over the past few hours. it's gotten much, much larger in the past 30 minutes or so. you have seen more, secret servicve things under control, or watch for any threats. but you have a mix here. you have got chants of black lives matter, you have got anti-donald trump chants, you have pro hillary chants. i see, red, white, blue balloons. some singing the american anthem. and other patriotic sounds earlier. so it is sort of hard to in many ways poll through the gate exactly where sentiment is.
3:43 am
of the political experts have been in predicting this outcome. >> margaret, thank you very much. january 20th, there is going to be a new resident in the most splendid of all public housing in america. there on pennsylvania avenue. charlie rose has some insightful panelists for us to listen to right now. charlie. >> indeed, scott. i began with frank. tell me, what do you think? >> this is inconceivable, five, six hours ago. first, all exit polling should be banned. the fact is the numbers were wrong. all the way across the stable. the 5:00 p.m. second wave got it wrong. second, still a hidden trump vote. people who refused to tell pollsters who they voted for will not acknowledge it. they will come out of the woodwork tonight. how do you address the anger?
3:44 am
tear up and blow up washington. they're going to have to figure out a way to work with them, the house, the senate. this is going to be the most chaos we have seen in washington in a long, long time. >> your belief is that trump has won? >> yes, had a chance to look at counties. i believe fromle will be the next president. >> peggy? >> there are, we should keep this in mind, tens of millions of americans who tonight who are experiencing this evening not only as a political event, and a spiritual event. they feel grateful, they feel they are, rebuking a decayed establishment that earned a rebuke in 25 ways. spoke to a friend, major trump supporter, told me, just speck to him. i said how did you react when you realize the this was going to happen? he is a tough, hard boiled guy,
3:45 am
burst into tears. this is really going to be something. he said, but it is the right thing we are certain. i leave it there. >> we often saw in this campaign, when the focus was on donald trump, his numbers went down. when the focus was on hillary clinton. her numbers went down. my question at this hour, of this election day, was this a -- victory for trump or a loss for hillary clinton? was it about trump? or clinton? >> well, i think it is hard to argue this isn't a victory for his people came out in the right places in the right numbers. and brought an extraordinary upset. one of the, the largest in american history. >> not just political upset in america in history if he goes on to win this. >> my gosh in our lifetime, certainly. >> dewey defeats truman since 1948. >> i have to add this was also a validation of a certain kind of
3:46 am
more personal than any i have seen in my lifetime. he has a huge burd in if he wins this election to do some form of outreach to say this is a single country. and not, not used up, groups, to, to attack. in that way. i don't know if he is capable of that. but every president has that. and this president more than others. >> if he wins not only the biggest upset of our political memory, is it also the most transformative election of who he was, how he campaigned and what he did? is it? >> i think that's fair. foreign policy, this is a total change from the reagan foreign policy. >> change from the bush foreign policy. i mean it is a removal, almost like kicking away from the past 15 years. i think is how. >> and his supporters, must say. trump said he would do this. and there is a remarkable thing.
3:47 am
