1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: It's been a big twenty four hours since we spoke

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: to this man. It has been Jonathan Cursley, Channel nine's

3
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 1: US correspondent, Good morning, and good morning.

4
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 2: To you both of you. Another historic day in America.

5
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 2: If you thought yesterday was historic, well today it is

6
00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 2: President elect Donald Trump who will become the forty seventh

7
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 2: president of the United States of America.

8
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,479
Speaker 1: Did he actually end up with more of the vote

9
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 1: than even expected.

10
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 2: By a very long way? This was, believe the polls,

11
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 2: It was going to be closely for its Essentially, what

12
00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 2: we are seeing is a red wave across the swing states,

13
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:38,520
Speaker 2: the seventh swing states that we kept talking about, Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia,

14
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 2: North Carolina, Nevada, and Arizona. If he's going to be

15
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 2: a completement way for him, he could very well surpassed.

16
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 2: In twenty sixteen, it was old against Hillary Clinton and

17
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 2: so Martin that just came his way. It seemed to

18
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,520
Speaker 2: be a complete rejection of the Democratic campaign. Exit polls

19
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 2: suggested that most of others have actually made up with

20
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: wine temper. So look, this is a very clear indication

21
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,720
Speaker 2: where America stands. He spoke to Kamala Haus earlier. Today

22
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 2: was a very very brief call. That is unsurprising he

23
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 2: and he agreed with her that there was an importance

24
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 2: around unifying the nation. Now that's the task ahead for him.

25
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 2: He announced a whole swave of ideas yesterday and telling

26
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: you about making America big and putting a new golden age.

27
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 2: And we know he's got a focus focus on business

28
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,479
Speaker 2: and manufactory. But he has a huge job at hand

29
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 2: now to fulfill the promises that he has made to

30
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 2: the electorates. And his team is now trying to eye up.

31
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,480
Speaker 1: Obviously the inauguratingcacting absolutely, Jonathan, Were you surprise not just

32
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: how comprehensive the victory was, but how the early league

33
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: was unassailable.

34
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 2: It was incredible, isn't it. Yeah? I mean Donald Trump

35
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 2: in presidential elections, Republicans are always going to get a

36
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 2: little bit of an early league because some of those

37
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 2: states that Len Red's come in first. So some of

38
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 2: the early results are advising, but there was just no

39
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 2: chasing it down. There seem to be very few white

40
00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: spots for the Democratic campaign. They were looking to numbers

41
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 2: in Philadelphia, they were looking to numbers in Michigan, and

42
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 2: seemed at one point as if they were almost clutching

43
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 2: at straws. And then probably by the late evening here

44
00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 2: at it was almost a foregone conclusion that Donald Trump

45
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: would become president elected, and then it was just a

46
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 2: matter of waiting to see him leave marri Lago as

47
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 2: we did last night, make his way to the convention

48
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 2: center and addressed the thousands who hadn't waited patiently for him.

49
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,080
Speaker 2: But he wasn't just gooding to them. This was a

50
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 2: speech of the world. I mean, for a lot of

51
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 2: his supporters I've been talking to in and around Marijuanata

52
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 2: for the last couple of days. They said this as vengeance.

53
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 2: This is something they wanted four years ago that they

54
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 2: didn't get. But now the world is going to be

55
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 2: watching just how Donald Trump carried out his second term.

56
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 1: I remember in twenty sixteen in Democrat circles and I mean,

57
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: you know, just supporters, it was kind of stunned silence,

58
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 1: the reaction. What was it like this time?

59
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 3: College people were repelling himself all over again. Yeah, there

60
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 3: were Kamala Haus was to the speak and eventually the

61
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 3: crab be could she would not be speaking.

62
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 2: She has just focun a short time ago and It

63
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 2: was a very powerful speech. It was a speech that

64
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,560
Speaker 2: was essentially framed around not giving up the fight. But

65
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 2: sometimes She had had this mantra during the campaign, when

66
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 2: we fight, we win, and she said, we didn't win

67
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,880
Speaker 2: this fight, but sometimes the fight takes a long time

68
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 2: to win, but we need to keep fighting. So that

69
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 2: is certainly the message that she is sitting across. She

70
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 2: wants people to continue to campaign on issues around abortion

71
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 2: rights and women's reproductive life, and she has made her

72
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 2: point very very clear today. She said that she conceded defeat,

73
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,640
Speaker 2: which is something that Donald Trump did not do four

74
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 2: years ago. She has now afforded the opportunity that he

75
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 2: did not afford them. So, look, there is going to

76
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,400
Speaker 2: be a significant focus now on how Donald Trump moves

77
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 2: on what form the Republican side, and they are going

78
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 2: to be controlling not only the White House, but likely

79
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 2: both chambers in Congress as well, which makes power a

80
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,119
Speaker 2: very big thing for Donald Trump in his second term.

81
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 2: So looking forward to this now, I mean, you have

82
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 2: the eyes of the world now watching exactly what he

83
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: will be doing. World leaders might be pouring in with congratulations,

84
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: but there might all be some also be some acts

85
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 2: given his promised to higher tariffs given some of his

86
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 2: concerns around national security to throw the path. So, yes,

87
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 2: this is a significant, huge victory for Donald Trump. Takes

88
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 2: coming away from him. He has campaigned on the issues

89
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 2: that he believed to be true to the American electric

90
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,599
Speaker 2: They absolutely have proved to be true. You're relied on

91
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 2: people like Elon Musk. He relied on right wing effectively

92
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 2: podcast hosts to get his message out there and think him.

93
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 2: It's work. He's won the popular vote as well, which

94
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 2: is what he has not done in twenty sixteen or

95
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:45,599
Speaker 2: twenty twenty. So this is a thumping victory for Donald

96
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 2: Trump and an absolutely devastating defeat of Democrats.

97
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 1: Certainly is well, Jonathan, thank you so much.

98
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 2: Thanks of sums it all up.

99
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:55,480
Speaker 1: Really it would have been a hell of a red

100
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: wash of button and Dougie's healing. There will be plenty

101
00:04:58,839 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: to talk about soon.

102
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll keeping time.

103
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: Thank you, Jonathan. Awesome
