Clinton to offer concession speech soon. Trump's victory speech showed a different side of the president-elect. Markets tumble on Trump win.
Happy Wednesday.
At least it is for a lot of Donald Trump supporters and Republicans as they awake to the reality of President-elect Trump and the GOP still in charge of Congress. What a night. Polls were clearly way off, the political handicappers just plan wrong and the chattering class clearly out of touch. Hillary Clinton's blue wall crumbled amidst the Trump wave that beat out Mitt Romney's take four years ago. And the Dems' ideas on winning control of the Senate faded early on.
