“I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honor of being elected your 47th president and your 45th president,” the former reality star said at a Nov. 6 campaign party at Florida’s Palm Beach Convention Center, per NBC News. “This was a movement like no one has ever seen before. Frankly, I believe this was the greatest political movement of all time.”
VP-elect Vance was equally thankful, telling his running mate, “I appreciate you allowing me to join you on this incredible journey.”
The 40-year-old added, “I think we just witnessed the greatest political comeback in the history of the United States of America.”
