As Trump clinched crucial Pennsylvania electoral votes, he took the stage to deliver his victory speech at the Florida election party on Wednesday. The former president promised a ‘golden age’ to the citizens while addressing the supporters. “I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honour of being elected your 47th president, and your 45th president. America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate. We have taken back control of the Senate – wow that’s good,” he said.
