Election 2024 live: Trump allies fight over Cabinet posts as Harris caves, tells voters to 'never give up'

The 46th President will address the nation at 11 a.m. ET (4 p.m. GMT) from the White House Rose Garden.

He is expected to reflect on the election result and encourage all citizens to accept it without complaint, congratulate President-elect Trump and praise Kamala Harris for her campaign.

Pennsylvania radio host Victor Martinez appeared on MSNBC yesterday and brought this hard truth to Nicolle Wallace about the loss of Kamala Harris:

“As far as the Latino vote in general, it was the Latino man. It was a Latino who decided to vote for Donald Trump. And I dare say it will be the Latino man who doesn't want a woman as president. I mean, you and I have had this discussion before, and I have audio recordings of the Latino men calling my show and telling me that they wouldn't vote for her just because she was a woman.

“And that's unfortunate, but that's part of Latino culture, right, with the Latino as a man. And he is the one who is the provider. And we are the boss, and unfortunately there are still many Latinos with the mentality that women belong in the kitchen. This is a reality of Latino male chauvinistic culture. And I think that’s exactly what happened.”

A Republican lawyer believed to be in the running to become Donald Trump's attorney general has said in a graphic social media post that he wants to drag Democrats' “dead political bodies” through the streets and “burn them.”

Mike Davis, a former court clerk and Senate aide, shared the violent post on November 6th

“Here’s my current mood: I want to drag their dead political bodies through the streets, burn them and throw them off the wall,” Davis said.

“(Of course, legally, politically and financially),” he added.

“Fuck unity… We have the votes. And they tried to kill Trump,” he said in another profanity-laced post, referring to the opposition.

The Trevor Project, a nonprofit collective dedicated to supporting LGBT+ youth and suicide prevention, reported in a statement that it saw a 125 percent increase in calls, texts and chat messages from young people on Election Day and Wednesday, who were disturbed by the dawning news of Donald Trump's election victory.

The Rainbow Youth Project told The Washington Post something similar and said it received more than 3,810 calls that month.

Other groups supporting the LGBT+ community, such as OneIowa, also reported The post there was an increase in emails and messages.

Actor Bradley Whitford, best known for The West Wing And The Handmaid's TaleHe said he didn't want Democrats to fall into “despair” after Trump's second victory The Independent in an exclusive interview.

Whitford, known for his Emmy winning West Wing Fiery political strategist Josh Lyman said he was surprised by Trump's decisive victory.

The 65-year-old has long been a Democratic ally and last spoke at a Harris rally in Wisconsin on October 22.

“I had absolute confidence we were going to win,” Whitford said The Independent outside the White House on Wednesday afternoon, less than 12 hours after Trump secured his second term.

“I thought it was going to be tighter,” he added.

“But whenever one of my friends asked me, I would end it with, 'You can never underestimate how racist and sexist this country is.'”

While Trump and Harris fought for the presidency, a secret war raged between networks trying to attract viewers to their election coverage.

Millions of Americans sat in front of their televisions on Tuesday evening to watch the results being announced, with one news channel trumping its competitors in the ratings: Fox News.

Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum led the station's primetime election coverage Democracy 2024According to Nielsen data, the show averaged 10.3 million viewers between 8:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. ET on Tuesday nights.

Project 2025 wasn't the only concern on Steve Bannon's mind yesterday.

He also expressed the idea that Marjorie Taylor Greene should be appointed as head of the Department of Homeland Security in the president-elect's new administration.

Trump ally Greene, who was re-elected to Congress for a third time on Tuesday, spoke to Bannon after the Republicans' overwhelming victory.

Bannon noted that the Georgia arsonist “has been with us from the beginning,” adding, “Congressman Greene, you have done so much work. You're such a fighter. Now, is there any truth to the rumor that you will be taking over as DHS?”

Greene laughed but dodged the question a bit, answering: “I don't know what's going to happen, Steve, we're just thrilled to have President Trump back in the White House.”

In his first show since the election was called, the late-night host, who cheered on Trump at this year's Oscars, fought back tears as he listed a list of people who could now suffer under a second Trump administration .

The former Republican strategist went viral with this assessment of the vote, which he delivered as part of Anderson Cooper's CNN panel on election night.

Jennings, often divisive, argued that the result was “the revenge of the regular old working-class American” as well as “an indictment of the political information complex.”

He explained that the final weeks of the campaign were filled with accusations of Nazism and fascism against the Trump campaign and media narratives such as the Puerto Rico joke, Liz Cheney's support for Harris, the disaffected Nikki Haley electorate that may be the Trump -Voice fueled, and before that had been dominated by, the popularity of the camouflage hats by Tim Walz and Harris-Walz.

Ultimately, none of these talking points matter, Jennings argued, accusing the liberal media of ignoring “the fundamentals” – the state of the economy and the cost of living – on which the public ultimately voted.
