Clinton, Obama Congratulate Trump On His Election Victory
Two former presidents of the United States of America; Mr. Bill Clinton and Mr. Barack Obama and their wives; Hillary and Michelle have congratulated President-elect Donald Trump on his election victory.
Recall that Mr Donald Trump was on Wednesday declared the winner of the 2024 United States presidential election.
The president-elect, Mr Donald Trump, would be the 47th president of the United States.
He had earlier served as the 45th president of the United States from 2017 to 2021.
‘We want to congratulate President Trump and Senator Vance on their victory. This is obviously not the outcome we had hoped for, given our profound disagreements with the Republican ticket on a whole host of issues. But living in a democracy is about recognizing that our point of view won’t always win out, and being willing to accept the peaceful transfer of power.
Michelle and I could not be prouder of Vice President Harris and Governor Walz – two extraordinary public servants who ran a remarkable campaign. And we will always be grateful to the staff and volunteers who poured their heart and soul into electing public servants they truly believed in’ the Obamas submitted in a statement on Wednesday evening.
They also emphasized the importance of abiding by ‘democratic norms’ and added that ‘In a country as big and diverse as ours, we won’t always see eye-to-eye on everything. But progress requires us to extend good faith and grace – even to people with whom we deeply disagree. That’s how we’ve come this far, and it’s how we’ll keep building a country that is more fair and more just, more equal and more free’.
The Clintons also issued a statement an hour later, congratulating both campaigns:
‘Kamala Harris and Tim Walz ran a positive, forward-looking campaign to be proud of. The American people have voted, and Donald Trump and J.D. Vance will be the next President and Vice President of the United States. We wish them well and hope they will govern for all of us.
We must remember that America is bigger than the results of any one election, and what we as citizens do now will make the difference between a nation that moves forward or one that falls back. We need to solve our problems and seize our opportunities together. The future of our country depends on it’ the couple submitted-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us? Do you want us to cover your event or programme?
