We have yet to call a few key states, arizona, minnesota, michigan and new hampshire. As for the popular vote, it is a razorthin margin. In fact clinton is actually leading this morning by several thousand votes. Another major headline from the Election Results boosted by trumps performance. Republicans were able to fend off democratic rivals. In wisconsin, missouri, pennsylvania and north carolina. Of course republicans hold on to the house, so they have got the trifecta for trump, the white house, the senate and the house for republicans. Our decision 2016 team ready to go this morning. Lets start with nbc National Correspondent Peter Alexander. Hes at trump tower. Peter, good morning. Hey, savannah, good morning to you. No better way to put it than a political earthquake and this morning we are still feeling the shock waves of this. Improbable victory for donald trump. Trump, who this morning is still celebrating his victory from last night, has already returned to his favorite megaphone, twitter, now changing his bio to read president elect of the United States. He also put out a message. His first words of this new day writing such a beautiful and important evening. The forgotten man and woman will never be forgotten again. We will all come together as never before. Complicated business. For president elect trump, a dramatic and sweeping victory. As ive said from the beginning, ours was not a campaignut rather an incredible and Great Movement made up of millions of hardworking men and women who love their country and want a better, Brighter Future for themselves and for their family. Just before 3 00 in the morning on the east coast, trump from his fierce rival. She congratulated us. Its about us, on our victory. And i congratulated her and her family on a very, ver hardfought campaign. After a brutal and divisive campaign, trump is pledging to bring the country together. It is time for us to come together as one united people. Land that i will be president for all americans, and this is so important to me. As his aides watched the improbable victory take shape, sources at trump tower tell nbc news there was euphoria, hugs and high fives. Campaign manager Kellyanne Conway ticking off the ingredients of an upset. Rally crowds matter, we expanded the map. Trumps victory built on the backs of White Working Class te 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 longer. Reporter more than 500 days after descending that escalator, trump now propelled into the oval office as americas 45th president , concluding his firstever political campaign. Its been what they call a historic, we have to do a great job. And i promi you that i will not let you down, we will do a great job. We will do a great job. Reporter and Donald Trumps campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway tells nbc news that president obama called president elect trump last night, though its unclear whether the two men were able to speak. Trump will be inaugurated on january 20th, at which time hell move from one great avenue to another. From fif a manhattan to 1600 pennsylvania avenue in the nations capital. Matt and savannah. Peter alexander at trump tower. Speaking of Kellyanne Conway, Trumps Campaign manager, shes with us now. Kellyanne, good morning. I know it was a late night. Congratulations to you on the campaign. Thank you, savannah, thank you. Can you tell us anything about this phone call thats been reported between president obama and mr. Trump, what was said . How would you characterize it . It was a very warm conversation and we were happy to receive the call from the president. Conversation about mr. Trumps victory. He was congratulated and i think they resolved to Work Together, which is exactly what this country needs, to get the current president and the president elect and others who are in leadership positions to help unify and heal the country. We expect that the two gentlemen will be meeting soon. Kellyanne, i have to ask you a question. For months and months now donald trump has been saying that the election is rigged. Would president elect trump now was not and never was rigged . Well, he certainly would say the system is rigged and it proved last night hes got millions of people who agree with him. I think, you know, when he says the election is rigged, matt, what hes really talking about is he couldnt believe that he wasnt winning. Hed look at these polls, hear everybody on tv constantly say he cant win, shes a shooin, the path is gone, theres no way. Look what happened yesterday. I think theres just a frustration for him and for those of us close to him and other and not talking to people. And thats what he was able to do here, he was able to put together a campaign, he and governor pence, that talked to people and talked with people and not at people. Can we go back to last night. I know Hillary Clinton placed a call to mr. Trump. Can you tell us anything about that call . And was your campaign disappointed that she didnt come out and concede in the way that traditionally losing candidates do . Well, its not for us to judge her conduct. I would expect and reported, savannah, that secretary clinton will come out and address her supporters and the nation indeed today. I dont know if those reports are true, it makes sense to me. But she has to do that on her own comfortable timeline. We had made our way to the hotel to see our supporters and we intended just to do there what we were doing here all night, which is watch the returns, watch the different states be called, and then eventually a victor, a president of the United States. While we were getting ready to do that, we received a call from secretary clinton. I gave the phone to mr. Trump secretary clinton congratulated mr. Trump on his victory and she commended excuse me, he commended her for being smart and tough and running a really hardfought campaign. Kellyanne, let me ask you a personal question. In your heart when you sat with us yesterday morning and said that you thought you would win this election and win michigan and some of the states that it appears you will have actually have won, did you believe it or do you have that good of poker face . I did believe it. While now. We just modeled the electorate very differently than conventional pollsters do. I think that sometimes there are conclusions in search of evidence. If everybody around you is saying the same thing, then you convince yourself that it must be true. We just wanted people to tell us who they were, what motivated them, their fears and frustrations. We knew, matt, wed be able to flip one or two of these traditionally blue states because donald trump is not a conventional republican that harkens back to ronald reagan. A lot of putting America First and creating jobs and being patriotic and renegotiating bad trade deals. You heard him last night, though, he wants to be a unifier. He wants to help heal and bind the nation. I thought the most important thing mr. Trump said last night in his victory speech was that he wants to be the president of all americans, and that includes the many who did not vote for him. Well, we knew whoever won, they were going to have that tall order before them right away, and so it is. Ya congtionrala hope you catch some sleep and thanks for being on with us again. Appreciate it. Thank you. Again, we expect to hear from Hillary Clinton later this morning. Kristen welker covering her campaign. Kristen, good morning to you. Reporter matt, good morning to you. Shock, anger and disbelief. Those are just a few of the words democra are using to describe their mood this morning. They thought that secretary clinton was on the cusp of making history. Instead she suffered a stinging defeat one that has sent shock she was poised to make hist but early this morning Hillary Clintons white house hopes ending. Clinton calling donald trump to concede the election just moments before he took the stage. But clinton did not concede publicly. Instead sending her campaign chair, john podesta, to a ddress stned supporters. Its been a long night and its been a long campaign, but i can say we can wt a little lo, reporter facing a shrng electoral map, clinton didnt attend her rally that was being held under the symbolic Glass Ceiling at the Javits Center in new york. Hours before podesta took the stage, clinton sersuprt looking shocked. Some only weepin we got a lot wrong. Im not sure why or how. Theres a lot of a lot of divide. Reporter state after state turning the election m into a the billionaire chipping away at winning in what were thought to be democratic strongholds and in key battlegrounds. In florida, disbelief from latino voters after trump, who vowed to build a wall during the campaign, surged to victory. Its very hard for me to accept that a man of his caliber is going to be our president. Reporter but this morning, there is still uncertainty over a future Trump Presidency. Dow futures plummeting overnight. An anxious crowd gathering at the white house. President obama, who furiously for clinton, facing a stunning ke. Bu clinton, whose white house hopes were dashed in 2008 boy a newcomer from her own party seemed often to be on a glide path to victory, but she was dogged by voters lack of trust in her and an email controversy that wouldnt go away. Back in new york, the Glass Ceiling still unbroken, a democrats now try to pick up the pieces. And as we wait to hear from secretary clinton later on house. Of course president obama and donald trump are bitter political rivals. They will ineviy have to find some Common Ground as the transition gets under way. Matt, savannah. Kristen, thank you very much. And thats going to happen sooner rather than later. The white house tomorrow, trump will meet with president obama. That is something that traditionally happens and the white house just released that information that, yes, that meeting will take place there at the white house between the president and the president elect. Lets go to who was at the board all night long talking about the different paths to victory for both campaigns. Take a look at pennsylvania, which was thought to be an absolute firewall for the Clinton Campaign. What can you tell us . Pennsylvania really tells you a lot of the National Story too. Lets go inside and you see donald trump winning the state again, first time in 28 years a republican has done this. How did he do it . Couple things we thought would be key. One, the black vote. It was there in a big way for obama. Would it be there in the same look at philadelphia here. This is where the clintons, the obamas had that big rally on election eve. What do you see . The margin that Hillary Clinton got out of here was a little north of 450,000 votes. By comparison, in 2012, barack obama won philadelphia by 490,000, so they lost some ground there. They were ready for that, they thought, because what they thought would insulate them in philadelphia were those white collegeeducated voters in the suburbs right outside of philadelphia. This was supposed to be what really drove the margin up f Hillary Clinton, but check this out. Hillary clinton winning bucks county by 2,000 votes over donald trump. That is unchanged from four years ago. Thats no progress for the democrats there. You go right next door in montgomery county, that is only a little bit of progress. They made some gains, the democrats did, in the philadelphia suburbs but they didnt make anywhere near the kind of gains with white collegeeducated voters they thought they would and that allowed donald trump with those two things happening, two things then, you look in the rural margins higher than republicans are used to. He basically doubled the republican margins in counties like these and then think of scranton, scranton, pennsylvania, lackawanna county. Its blue on this map but four years ago barack obama won this county by nrly 30 pnts is. Last night it was a nailbiter. Look at all the ground that donald trump made up, white blue collar part of pennsylvania. Its a story there and a story night. Theres somebody very familiar whos from scranton, pennsylvania. Joe biden is thinking if only. A lot of democrats are thinking that, if only about joe biden, Bernie Sanders. Theres a lot of sanders supporters who are saying, hey, you know, we were talking to these voters. She wasnt. And so theres a lot o second guessing here. Theyre sond guessing was tim kaines right running mate. Should she have picked somebody theres a lot of second guessing going on. Nicolle, when you look at what steve was point out in pennsylvania and how it affected the rest of the country in counties across the country, what specifically was it about the trump message that resonated . Well, a couple things. One, he closed very strong. The news, the comey letter that came out the friday before and that nineday stretch represented his most dciplined period as a candidate so he settled on the closing message of thego talking about joe biden, joe biden speaks to the forgotten man and woman. Kellyanne conway, i dont know that we modeled incorrectly, but i think we underestimated that to the forgotten man and woman her ethical lapses were equal in their minds to his sort of outlandish statement with racial and sexist undertones. To the voter they cancelled each other out and we got that wrong. I think a lot of people thought he was disqualified for the things that he said on the access hollywood tape, the divisive comments about mexicans. But in the voters mind, her ethical lapses were greater tha that. Thats one of the most fascinating things about the exit polls last night. Its not as though when we see this trump sweep people decided, you know, hes a great guy. 60 in our exit poll still had an unfavorable opinion of trump. So it seems that its really about the melsage that trump sent schls t as much as the messenge change election envinment. Weve had 60 , 65 of the countr saying were headed in the wrong direction. By the way, weve had eight years of a democratic president. Sometimes we almost naturally are looking to change. This was always an environment that wanted to be for change. I think trump held himself back for a long time, but it may be that the comey letter sort of reoriented folks to say, oh, thats right, shes status quo andes not. Little while. As the prospect of a Trump Presidency became clear, Global Financial markets reacted and plummeted this morning. Theow is set topen down hundreds of points. Lets get to Cnbcs Jim Cramer whos at the Stock Exchange for us this morning. Hi, jim, good morning. What do you expect . Well, ive got to tell you last night obviously around midnight there was pure panic. We looked like we were down 5 . That has changed rather dramatically. The markets have rallied and look to be down thats not down enough, given the fact that we tacked on 2 since comey kind of vindicated Hillary Clinton. So i suspect we get back those two. I dont think that anything really dangerous is going to happen to the stock market because he is a businessman and he is pro growth and those are things that the stock market really does like. All right. Jim, thank you very much. We appreciate it. Lets get a quick check of the weather from mr. Roker. Thats one thing that always hey, and we are going to continue to see all this warm. That jetstream way up to the north and so look at this swath of above normal temperatures. San diego, 90 degrees. Thats 23 degrees above average. Chicago is going to be at 57. Birmingham 71. For tomorrow, the heat continues from las vegas, minneapolis, cleveland, all the way down to atlanta. The one exception is going to be the northeast and the great lakes. Were going to see big changes coming as we head into the weekend. Temperatures anywhere from 5 to 10 degrees coming up, how the world is reacting to president elect trump. And the cabinet in waiting. Who could be on the short list, after your local news. Serve a turkey, dont serve turkey. Bring classic flaky crescent rolls, or not so classic pizza sticks.

To those who have chosen not to support me in the past, of which there were a few people, im reaching out to you for y we can Work Together and unify our great country. Were back at 7 30 wednesday morning, the day after election day. That was just part of president elect Donald Trumps victory speech overnight after his stunning victory in the president ial race that surprised the whole world. People are waking up. The reaction is incredible here in this country. Its also coming in from around the world this morning. British Prime Minister theresa the Iraqi Government said its relationship with the u. S. Has a solid base and shouldnt change with Donald Trumps election. And someone who was mentioned a lot during the campaign, the russian president , vladimir putin, also weighing in. He sent a telegram of congratulations to donald trump and in a statement putin said he hopes to Work Together for removing russianamerican relations from their crisis state. It goes without saying that trumps unexpected surge of support was a shocking conclusion to what seemed like an endless nbcs Hallie Jackson is here with our nbc News Election Center and shes got more on that. Hallie, good morning. Good morning. Donald trump has stunned a lot of people today, but not all of them, not his supporters who backed him from the very beginning. Trumps campaign always said that their army of backers would mobilize at the polls. Turns out they did. And now their impact is reshaping politics as we know it. I say it is time for us to people. An ending fit for the most unpredictable president ial race in modern history. Donald trump declaring victory after a tight battle against Hillary Clinton. Its surprising to say the least. Im just so excited that america is speaking. Not the political pundits, not the elite, its the people. It is probably o of the most Amazing Things that i have watched and been able to be a part of. Listen, we predicted that he will be the 45th presi thats right. Reporter the American People saying youre hired to the real estate mogul turned reality tv host. The ultimate unconventional candidate who heads to the white house based on a simple pledge. Were going to make America Great again. Reporter his path to victory shaking up american politics, despite unapologetically stirring up controversy with comments that might have been the phoned any other candidate. Theyre bringing drugs, rapists. A total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the United States. I love the poorly educated. Reporter trump unshackled and unfazed, connecting with the voters who flocked to his rallies. Its time to fight for america. Im not a politician, i can say proudly. My only special interest is you. Its you. Reporter focusing on lost jobs, he shared common enemies with his supporters, from the government to the media. Some of the media is 75 , is absolute dishonest, absolute scum. Reporter and while the latenight comics struck a somber note. It feels like were trying to avoid the apocalypse and half of the country is voting for the asteroid. Reporter the people have spoken. And in trump they trust to make good on his promise to, in his words, drain the swamp and maybe shake up washingn in ways weve never seen. Campaign is over, our wor on this movement is now really just beginning. Heres the challenge for trump now after a campaign slog in which both candidates tried to painting the other as unfit to take office. Our exit polls show some twothirds of the country do not believe donald trump is ht or trustworthy. He now has the challenge of trying to bring folks together, trying to bridge that gap, matt and savannah, and that is something y talk about already. Hallie, thank you very much. Late night for you. You just mentioned some news coming out of the white house a short time ago that donald trump and president obama will meet tomorrow. We dont know the time. But can you imagine being a fly on the wall at that meeting, especially considering some of the things that president obama has said about donald trump in the recent past. Said it to you basically, all but saying this day will never come. Take a look. Do you feel youre responsible for a certain hunger donald trump is putting out. Yeah, the message that donald trump is putting out has had adherence a lot of times during the course of our history. Talk to me if he wins, then well have a conversation about how responsible i feel about it. When you stand and deliver that state of the Union Address in no part of your mind or brain can you imagine donald trump standing up one day and delivering a state of the union dr saturday night skit. Look, anything is possible and i think, you know, we shouldnt be complacent. I think everybody has got to work hard. I think its safe to say this is a day president obama did not think would come. By the way, hes in good company. I think there are about 16 republican primary candidates who said something very, very similar that donald trump would never be the republican nominee. Perhaps donald trump in the beginning saw this coming. Thats true. Were going to speak to the chairman of the Republican National committee in just a second, but first lets get a check of the weather from al. Weve got some wet weather making its way toward the northeast and also through the gulf coast. You can see along a frontal system stretching from brownsville, panama city, jacksonville, all the way into the northeast were looking at wet weather making its way, nothing too horrible. As the morning wears on, low pressure develops along this system. Brief heavy rains as this moves the way down into norfolk. You can see today look for record highs stretching from the plains on into the southwest. Weve got wet weather here in the northeast and still some sglmp you can track that weather any time you need to by going to the Weather Channel 24 7. Were joined now by the righthand side chairman, reince priebus. Good morning to you. Hey, good morning. I want a sense of what it was like last night. Just g behind the scenes, what was going on . Well, obviously when we started out in the exit polling, i think a little concerned about what we were seeing. But like all elections, you get that exit polling and its like to me its like pure poison. Everyone starts chasing it down, you dont know how scientific it is. You know what your voter scores say, you know what your modeling says, you know what your vote count is, you feel good about that, and then those come into play. We just kept our head down and about that, keep your head straight, were going to do our job. Lets not get down and move forward. And we did and state after state after state, donald trump and mike pence delivered. We delivered on the plan. That team did a great job and i was just honored to be a part of it. Can you share at all what mr. Trumps reaction was . Were you there in the room when that moment happened and it dawned on him, hey, this is real. This is happening. Im about to be eed he and ive said this many times to people, the donald trump behind the scenes one on one just like this is the guy we always wanted america to see. It wasnt necessarily the guy the media portrayed, but it was the guy in private that we knew was the guy that could be a great president. Maybe it wasnt the guy that he portrayed either. Do you think youre going to see a different side of donald trump . What i was going to say is he was steady the whole night fiving and acting he knew he understood what it was to be president of the United States and even preparing for that speech last night, he knew he wanted to deliver a calm, measured response and he did it. Let me ask you the Bigger Picture question, that people have described this as a reinvention of the Republican Party. Others have described it as a hostile takeover of the Republican Party. What is it . Y, thinin some ways it was a realignment of the midwest. Theres a lot of people that feel that they were left behind. There were a lot of people that felt like politicians that have said things and never delivered. I think he captured the frustration of the American People. But i think he also donald trump understands that he made a commitment and hes going to deliver on that commitment. And i just have to tell you, he understands where were at an i think he wants to really dever and he wants to be a great president. Couple of things. Your name has been menoned as a potential chief of staff in the whitehouse, having some role in the white house. Is that a discussion thats happened, number one . And number two, do you feel like the trump t is ready . That the transition work has really begun in earnest and that theyll be ready to take the reins . About that, none. O conversation your own none. Actually no ewpoint, i mean were not par of the transition team, but tweebe the rnc, the campaign, nothing. But those are the things that i think we justave to slow down on. This has been like three or four hours. I think you and i are going on the same amount of sgleep yes, we are. Mine was my accident by falling asleep on a chair and then getting ready for this interview. But i just think that what youre seeing from donald trump and that team is just to be mature voice to the world and thats what you saw last night in his speech. Do you want a role in a Trump Administration . Honestly i know people say it cant be possible. I havent thought about it. Right now im chairman of the party, im excited about that job. We delivered on what we promised, which is to support our nominee like weve never do before. But donald trum himse made this happen and the American People made this happen and we are just a small he had high praise for you last night, chairman reince priebus. Thank you for getting up early and being with us this mog. Appreciate it. Appreciate it. Up next, goodbye new york, hello washington. An inside look at president elect trumps plans for his family when he moves into the white house. But first, these messages. vo what if the sweet stevia leaf was discovered before the sugar cane .

There will be new residents at 1600 pennsylvania avenue soon. Donald trump will be the 45th president. His family set to replace the obamas come january. Cynthia mcfadden is a look at the trump first family. Good morning. Good morning. Well, of course as donald trump starts, his family has been the centerpiece of his campaign, from his wife, melania, and his daughter, ivanka, reaching out to women voters to his soninlaw, jared now the question what will his familys roles be in the new trump white house. I want to thank my family very much. Celebrating his big win, president elt trump was once again flanked by his closeknit family, all critical players in his campaign. His wife, melania trump, the first foreignborn first lady since John Quincy Adams wife, she retreated from the spotlight after being criticized for inadvertently lifting parts of her rnc speech from michelle obama. In the final days of Trumps Campaign, melania made a rare appearance to promote one of her agendas as first lady, protecting children against cyberbullying. We have to find a better way to talk to each other. It too garnered criticism, given her husbands insultladen campaign. As f be first mother to their 10yearold son. Hes the same age as malia obama when her family moved into the white house. As for trumps other children, hes hinted as a possible cabinet position for ivanka, one of his closest advisers. He will fight for equal pay for equal work and i will fight for this too right alongside of him. I can tell everybody would say put ivanka in, put ivanka in. Absolutely. Reporter another possible member of his administration, ivankas husband, Real Estate Developer jared kushner, a chief advisor on Trumps Campaign, reportedly responsible for his social media strategy. Trump has said if elected, hed sepate himself from his Real Estate Company by turning over control to his sons, 38yearold donald jr. And 32yearold eric. I have ivanka and eric and don sitting there. Run the company, kids, have a the real estate moguls new business being commander in chief. Now of course if ivanka is not recruited for her fathers administration, she will help run the Trump Organization with her brothers. Now having the kidsun the company would not constitute a blind trust, but that is perfectly legal. The president is not obliged like some members of the cabinet, the treasury secretary by way of example, to separate himself from his company. Just to reiterate your point, if the kids run the company, anything to do in an administration, is that correct . Thats probably what the law is. This is new territory, but the president is not obliged to separate himself so they couldnt be treasury secretary, that much we know. Cynthia, thank you very much.

As savannah just mentioned, president elect trump, well, hell enter the white house with republicans in control of congress. The gop managing to hold on to the senate. Weve got our Political Team all lined up t and start with Peter Alexander at trump tower this morning. Hi, peter, good morning to you. Reporter hey, matt and savannah, good morning to you. I just spoke to a top official close to donald trump who tells me as they watched the results come in last night, they were simply stunned. That aides thought the race would be close, but never thought that donald trump would come out on top. Trump now proving himself to be the great disrupter of american politics, single handedly it was the speech Trump Supporters had hoped for, but few americans expected to hear. I just received a call from secretary clinton. Reporter at 2 50 wednesday morning donald trump delivering a victory speech after completing a shocking upset of Hillary Clinton to win the white house. In a got you are from the historically nasty tone of this campaign, a humbled trump praised clinton and preached a message of unity for the and very hard over a long period of time and we owe her a major debt of gratitude for her service to our country. Reporter reaching out to all americans. For those who have chosen not to support me, im reaching out to you for your guidance and your help so we can Work Together. Reporter and doubling down on his pledge to make America Great again. Plan. We will double our growth and have the strongest economy anywhere in the world. Reporter trump surprised everyone by sweeping battlegrounds, florida, pennsylvania, michigan, ohio, wisconsin and north carolina. White working class voters in rural areas of the socalled big blue wall carrying trump to victory. The election a transformative event and a slam dunk win for republicans across the board. Lets make it official, the republicans hold the senate. Reporter for Hillary Clinton and her supporters, still hard to fathom in what her campaign didnt acknowledge last night on stage. Its been a long night and its been a long campaign. But i can say we can wait a little longer, cant we . Reporter shortly after the announcement, clinton conceding on the phone. She congratulated us. Its about us, on our victory. And i congratulated her and her reporter for hillary supporters, disbelief. Oh, my gosh. You know, i kept looking up at the Glass Ceiling and its still just solid. Reporter for trump backers, validation. Its huge. Reporter in an election that seemed to break down along class and cultural divisions, trumps win is seen as a statement by the American People against the status quo and a vote to take the country in a new direction. No dream is too big, no challenge is too great. Nothingwa is beyond our reach. America will no longer settle for anything less than the best. Reporter and donald trump returning to twitter this morning, changing the bio that now reads president elect of the United States, describing last night as a beautiful and important evening. As for that conversation, president obama did call the president elect, president elect trump, last night to congratulate him, inviting him to come to the white house him on the planning thats already in place for the smooth transition of power. Matt and savannah. Peter alexander for us again from trump tower, thank you. We are joined now by tom brokaw, mike murphy and president ial historian michael beschloss. Michael, let me start with you. This is the time of the morning we need perspective, all right . What do you compare this to . Thanks a lot, matt. No one is going to argue that trump is andrew jackson, but that was a president who did run against elites, better comparison is the mid1930s. Unemployment in this country was still just under 20 . Franklin roosevelt had been president and huey long was running against fdr saying every man a king, im going to redistribute wealth. Long was assassinated, but had he lived could have really given roosevelt a run for his money, 1936. Tom, a lot of people were thinking about the year 2000 last night. I know you have ptsd from 2000, a popular vote but the ultimate victor the winner of the electoral vote. And to see that happen again in such a relatively short amount of time. Well, the big difference is, however, that Hillary Clinton has called him and acknowledged what happened and well hear from her this morning what she has to say. I was thinking 24 hours ago we were sitting around saying how does the Republican Party put itself back together again after this devastating loss that will come tonight and what will happen to donald trump, you know, in the future. 24 hours is the Democratic Party going to put itself back together again. What are they going to deal with in congress. Look, he made a very gracious speech last night and yesterday morning, the first thing that he talked about, but theres a whole trail of things behind that that he had to say and the kind of language he used and the way he treated people. How he mends that and binds up those wounds is going to be a high priority for him if he wants to move forward. Those republicans that said no thanks, no to donald trump, how is your week going . Well, youre shocked and stunned like everybody, but in a larger sense, weve got to bring the country together and we all want our president to succeed. So the one thing about one Party Government now is its a team and you have two very strong experienced people in Mitch Mcconnell and paul ryan. I think republicans have to come together and encourage donald trump to do what he did last night whis occasion. We know donald trump has a long memory, he says it himself. Is he going to reach out to those people who shunned him over the course of this election . That is the huge question, but he now has an awesome responsibility and people tend to rise to it. I think he very well may after last night and weve got to meet him there. Im going to take radio gop and bury the transmitter for a while. The resistance will shut down and lets hope for the best and im learning to say it. I hope he does that and i think our leaders ought to fall in and see what happens. I think a really important thing is that weve gotten ourselves deeply involved in what i call tribal polics. Were playing one tribe against the other. Weve got to get the africanamerican, no, weve got to get the chicano vote or the Mexican American vote or hispanic vote, whatever you choose to call it. Weve got to get the White Working Class vote. What weve got to do is find a way that they can all agree on a common goal and a common way to elections now are about separating them and trying to leave a lot of bodies on the field and hope that yours survive and get you to where you need to get to and thats the single Biggest Issue for this country beyond everything else. Michael, talking about the shifting of the tectonic plates, the redefinition potentially of what it means to be a Republican Party. Yes, were going to redefine the Democratic Party, but what does the Republican Party mean . Have we seen is there a precedent for that in history . President trump is going to be Donald Trumps party and people are going to try to be like him in all sorts of ways. The interesting thing, though, is that this is a president elect who has worn as a badge of honor, ive never had any military experience, ive never had any experience in political office. Its going to be fascinating to see how hes going to be able to do that without that kind of background. He has had the lowest expectations of any candidate ive ever seen and exceeded them. He now has low expectations. It is a great opportunity if hell evolve into thejob. Tom, mike and michael, thank you so much. Just ahead, what will a Trump Administration look like . Who would he bring in to fill his cabinet . Well talk more about that. And the world was watching, now its reacting. The strong opinions pouring in from around the globe.

When donald trump is sworn in as president early next year, he will be a true outsider, the first with no government or military experience. But throughout the campaign he made big promises about what he hopes to accomplish when hes in the white house. Nbcs Hallie Jackson joins us again with more on that. Hallie, good morning. Good morning to you both. Now that we know who will be in the oval office come january, the question becomes what will donald trump do once he gets so we dove into what hes promised for his first 100 days, who might be his closest advisers, and what other republicans who never backed trump could do now. Ours was not a campaign but rather an incredible and Great Movement made up of millions of hardworking men and women. Reporter donald trump declaring victory in his president. Reporter the nontraditional candidate now getting his chance to make good on some of those campaign promises, starting on day one. That begins with immediately repealing and replacing the disaster known as obamacare. On day one, we will begin working on an impenetrable, physical, tall, powerful, beautiful, sth when we win, we will suspend the syrian refugee program. A Trump Administration will stop the horrible, horrible, horrible transpacific partnership. We will renegotiate nafta. And we are going to stand up to chinas currency manipulation. Well pass massive tax reform to create millions of new jobs government corruption and were going to drain the swamp in washington, d. C. Reporter along with the promises, a threat to his now former rival. During the second president ial debate, trump saying hed seek to investigate Hillary Clinton over her email controversy. If i win, i am going to instruct my attorney general to get a special prosecutor to look into your situation. Reporter how will President Trump work with his partys leadership. No taken some dark, sometimes some very dark turns. Reporter House Speaker paul ryan reluctant to support trump from the start. Overnight calling to congratulate the winner. While nothing has been officially announced yet, Trump Campaign advisers have hinted at who he might appoint to his cabinet. Possibly Rudy Giuliani for attorney general, Newt Gingrich for secretary of state, Michael Flynn for defense secretary or National Security advisor. The Election Night shocker big changes ahead. Obamacare is done. Doddfrank is done. Its hard to imagine what this means. It is no sense in sugar coating it to people. So democrats with questions. Republicans will have some questions too about their leadership. For example, not just House Speaker paul ryan, but what happens now to people like Ohio Governor john kasich, who opposed Donald Trumps candidacy and people like jeb bush, who trump has hit on the campaign trail and w a couple of minutes ago is now tweeting congratulations to trump, saying he and his wife will pray for him. All right, hallie, thank you very much. Lets bring in Steve Schmidt and mark halperin. I think hallie did a good job laying out the promises donald trump made during the campaign. He went into the rust belt and said hes going to bring the jobs back and return them to their glory days, can he do it . Its going to be interesting paul ryans policy proposals, the House Republicans have some pretty big specifics on lots of issues. He didnt do that in the campaign. I suspect he may do it now. Working with mike pence, who is going to be the capitol hil liaison in chief, they may to the House Republicans and senate republicans, show us what you got and i think a lot of things will be signed into law. He made a lot of promises, build a wall, make mexico pay for it, he talked about has a republican congress. So he doesnt have the readymade excuse some president s have where i wanted to but had these obstacles. Its all his to do but of course the devil is in the details. Some of these things are completely fantastical and theyre not going to happen. Theres not going to be a wall paid for by mexico with a terrific door. You have two experienced leaders of governor, speaker ryan, leader mcconnell. Hes the president elect of the United States now. Responsibilities. I think people want him to be successful. What theyll start working on now is what does that first hour look like, signing executive orders. What does the legislative package look like . And so i think that they will be hard at work over the next weeks trying to make him be successful. For as little as donald trump understands how washington works, mike pence really does. He does and paul ryan does and Mitch Mcconnell does and this is the moment. This is the moment they have been waiting for, here it is, steve and mark, thank you. You know who understands the weather in washington . Oh, yeah. Mr. Roker. Hes got that down pat. There you go. As we look right now, weve got wet weather stretching from the gulf coast all the way to the northeast. Some showers moving into the pacific northwest.

Good morning, all. Lets see what weve got as we make our way to the weather wall. Youll see record highs stretching from the plains into the southwest. Weve got wet weather in texas, some showers and thunderstorms making their way through the northeast and the midatlantic states. Tomorrow that system moves offshore, the sunshine returns to the east, but gusty winds ahead of this front around the great lakes. Unseasonably mild for the western half of the country with plenty of sunshine. Very quiet tomorrow, just a few showers and thunderstorms down through southern texas. Dont forget to get that weather any time you need it, check out the Weather Channel on cable. Guys. Much. Now to Hillary Clintons attempt to break the ultimate Glass Ceiling in politics. A president ial bid that once again fell short. Nbcs Andrea Mitchell was at clinton headquarters last night and she, of course, covered the Clinton Campaign in 2008 and now here again. Good morning, savannah. Good morning, matt. Well, even as Hillary Clinton lost much of her ground in recent polls, late yesterday her team was still optimistic that they would prevail. Instead she called donald trump is put on hold yet again. At clinton headquarters, heartbreak. Oh, my gosh. You know, i kept looking up at the Glass Ceiling and its still just solid. Reporter eight years after her concession speech invoking that famous Glass Ceiling. Thanks to you, its got about 18 million cracks in it. Reporter tuesday night, clinton a noshow.

Reporter unlike her 2008 bid for the white house, this time clinton embraced the historic nature of her run from the beginning. If america is going to lead, we need to learn from the women of the world who have blazed new paths. If fighting for Womens Health care and paid family leave and equal pay is playing the woman card, then deal me in. Reporter breaking new ground rights. Reporter but a quarter century in the spotlight also one of clintons biggest obstacles as she struggled to fully earn voters trust, despite a deeply unpopular opponent, never escaping questions about her use of a private email server. It would have been better if i had two separate accounts to begin with. Reporter the fbi announcement bringing the scandal back into the spotlight becoming clintons october surprise, knocking her from what 11 days before the election. And despite a massive ground game and numerous polls putting her ahead, analysts say her campaign vastly underestimating the depth of trumps support among white voters in suburban and rural areas. Another weakness, winning over millenials, many of whom flocked to Bernie Sanders in the democratic primary. Women supporters who had hoped this would be their year. You move forward and you move on. This should be an example of why we need more women running, right . Reporter the wait for the countrys first female commander in chief, 240 years and still counting. And if the woman who president obama called the most qualified person ever to run for the white house couldnt break through, the question remains, who can . And just ahead, the other side of the coin. A look at Donald Trumps unlikely path to the presidency. Welcome back. For donald trump what started as an unexpected campaign ended in a stunning victory, one thats bound to change the future of american politics. So how did we and he get here . Heres a look at donald trump billionaire businessmans rise to the highest office in the nation. Usa, usa. Thank you. He was the candidate few saw coming, and the candidate many never imagined would make it this far. Ours was not a campaign but rather an incredible and Great Movement. His rise was improbable, his impact unprecedented. Sadly, dead. I will bring it back. Bigger and better and stronger than ever before and we will make America Great again. Donald j. Trump grew up in queens, new york, the second youngest of five children and the son of a successful selfmade Real Estate Developer. Family and i believe thats had a lot to do with perhaps some of the things ive done. His father, fred, was an early influence. My father was great. Good salesman, good builder. I learned so much from him and he was a great guy, a lovely guy. I loved my father. Trump followed in his footsteps, joining the Family Business and later taking over the company. From the beginning, his ambitions were big. Trump dreamed of breaking into manhattans tough Real Estate Market. And he did. Erecting a himself, trump tower. His name was everywhere. Trump, its taking on new meaning. Its written all over new york and atlantic city. And the young tycoon quickly found himself at the helm of a burgeoning empire. I believe to a certain extent you can make your own luck. But as luck would have it, the Real Estate Market took a sharp turn in the early 1990s. Finally the highflying life style and handson management style of donald trump appear to be history. It left donald trump and his and in a hole nearly a billion dollars deep. How much of a blow was it personally to have so much detail about your finances made public . I think that ive become very resilient over the years. With that resiliency, trump mounted his comeback, one he called bigger and better than before. People eat pizza the wrong way. Crust first. Now trump is calling himself the comeback kid. S up. I worked harder than i did when i started the company and it just never ended. Rob, youre fired. Ive been firing people all my life, so its not like a big deal. But at the height of his popularity, trump also found himself embroiled in controversy. There were the women he loved. Developer donald trump, whos been in the press plenty these days thanks to his marital troubles with wife ivana, his extra marlts affair with marla life. I never had a glass of alcohol but i do go out with beautiful women. Including his third wife, now future first lady, melania. We have a great relationship. Im my own person and hes his own person and i think thats very important. And im happy to say and there were women trump mocked. Its very derogatory comments. If youre calling she said i had bad hair. She said i had bad hair. Which is worse. I think id rather probably be fat. He also took onsi country, then he has pulled one of the great cons in the history of politics. In the early years, Donald Trumps political aspirations were merely rumors. You have flirted with the idea of politics. Now youre here at your First National convention. Does that get you interested in possibly making the plunge . Now you have to tell me something. Who told me i flirted. I didnt know that i flirted. But then in 1999 no jokes, president ial race. Are you serious . I am serious. Ive seen whats happened. Ive seen polls come out that what do you think you can do to really prove to people that you are serious, that you are a contender . I think im president ial. I think i have a very high aptitude. Ladies and gentlemen the third time proved to be the charm. I am officially running for president of the United States and we are country great again. Support for this new unconventional candidate reached a fevered pitch early on. Usa. Though his brash, offthecuff style garnered just as many critics and sharply divided the Republican Party. You dont have the endorsement of one republican senator and you work with these people. You should be ashamed of yourself. Ultimately, he would go head to head with Hillary Clinton. Donald supported the invasion of iraq. Wrong. Proved over and over again. Together they became the most polarizing nominees in election history. America is tired of waiting. The moment is now. There has never been a Movement Like this in our countrys history. Today the country has voted in a president whose rise to the highest office, though unexpected, has left a lasting mark on ic it really is. From start to where we are now. And its kind of just getting started, at least chapter 2. Lets get to some other voter measures that were on the ballot last night. Getting a lot of attention. So california, massachusetts and nevada have voted now to legalize the Recreational Use of marijuana. That gives a huge boost, of course, to allow pot nationwide but arizona voted no on its marijuana ballot measure. California and washington control laws and in nebraska, voters have reinstated the death penalty, reversing the legislatures decision last year to repeal capital punishment. Up next, tamron has her eye on what people are saying about the Election Results on social media. That should be fun to hear. Its interesting. First, this is today on nbc. The butterburger is made of just three cuts of fresh midwest beef. Nothing more, nothing less. So we got the sirloin, the chuck and the plate. No fillers; thats it. All prized cuts, all wellmarbled for richness and flavor. This is where those three wonderful cuts of beef come together. You can just tell that blend is working in there. And we sear them, and thats the culvers butterburger. Role in the president ial race and people are now busy sharing their thoughts on the outcome. Im sure there wasnt even a peep. Not a tweet heard in the world today. Guys, this has been incredible to watch social media, whether its twitter, instagram, facebook, all over the place americans wake up to the news that donald trump will be our next president and they have turned to social media to react for comfort, to express joy, its all across the board. In the last 24 hours alone there tweets using the election2016. That shattered the number we saw four years ago. Speaker of the house paul ryan tweeted out i want to congratulate donald trump on his incredible victory. This has been a great night for our party and now we must turn our focus to bringing the country together. Clinton supporters also letting their thoughts be heard. Ethan wrote this. Congrats to everyone who supported trump. I voted for hillary but this is a democracy and i respect the process. He achieved the impossible. With such a closely contested resisting the results. The top search on google throughout the night was this, canada immigration. Social media filled with images showing canadian official immigration site crashed and it is still experiencing sporadic issues this morning. Regardless of who you voted for, wish the best for trump. Pray he does well. If he does well, we do well. Its our country. Just to remind you, remember, people were going into socalled safe rooms on facebook where they were not allowing their there was a stat around 7 to 10 had ended friendships because of this election on social media. Some of the dialogue. So well keep an eye on it. But if you log on to twitter, brace yourself. So many people are ready for the election to be over. But you said it. This is phase two. This is phase two. All right, tamron, thank you. Coming up next, the sights and sounds from a groundbreaking Election Night. Pretty unforgettable. Welcome back. How newspapers and magazines are portraying the Trump Victory is interesting but the New York Times and the Dallas Morning News go with trump triumphs. The papers in florida crediting them for pushing him over Florida Lifts donald trump. The miami herald, its trump. Florida set the stage for victory against clinton. People magazine kept it simple and it just says President Trump. The New York Daily News suggesting 1600 pennsylvania avenue will bow a house of horrors. I guess its just like anything, choose your own news source depending on what your point of view is. And the New York Daily News has not been bashful about this was a campaign filled with unexpected twists and turns including the ultimate one at the very end. Donald trump, now youre president elect. Heres how it all unfolded last night. And here we go, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to decision night in america here at nbcs democracy plaza.

No one thought it was g trump can still win this thing at 9 00 tonight. I think theres some real jitters setting in in clinton headquarters right now. This map is suddenly 5050. The presidency is up for grabs. The American People have a funny way of making sure they get heard and they are being heard tonight. Weve overlooked Rural America a bit too much. Ohio will go to donald trump. We have a major projection. In the state of virginia, the are opening up for donald trump as we speak. He just blew through every single vote total estimate that democrats had and, frankly, even republicans. He is sending a message. My vote for donald trump says something to the establishment. And we have new projections at the 11 00 hour. Nbc news projects that Hillary Clinton wins the state of california. Two election viewing parties hoping to be celebrations a few blocks apart here in manhattan. No one i of them. Wisconsin could be going, could be going republican for the first time in 32 years. It is 11 30 in the east and as we look at democracy plaza, nbc news projecting that donald trump is the apparent winner in florida. I need to interrupt with another one. Trump wins iowa. Theyre chanting usa, usa, usa. They really feel like donald trump has a very good chance of winning. People just standing shell shocked. You can sense it. Its fairly quiet here. This is anything but a Victory Party. Those faces at the clinton headquarters say it all. She needs a miracle. Its been a long campaign, but i can say we can wait a little longer, cant we . So were not going to have anything more to say tonight. Clinton has called trump to concede the election. It is my high honor to introduce to you the president elect of the United States of america, donald trump. We have to do a great job, and i promise you that i will not let you down. Its my honor. Its an amazing evening, its been an amazing twoyear period, and i love this country. Thank you. Thank you very much. A political earthquake, a comefrombehind story for the kisses deluxe chocolates.
