In his victory speech, Trump promised “every citizen” that he would “fight” for them “every day”.

“I will not rest until we create the strong, safe and prosperous America that our children deserve and that you deserve,” he said. “This will truly be America’s golden age, and that’s what we need.”

“While I recognize this electionI don’t recognize the fight that fueled this campaign,” the vice president said. “The fight for freedom, for opportunity, for fairness and dignity for all; a fight for the ideals that are at the heart of our nation, the ideals that reflect the best of America. It’s a fight I will never give up.
