Celebrities are weighing in on a new political chapter.
Donald Trump has officially been projected to win the 2024 presidential election over his opponent Kamala Harris, according to NBC News. He will become the 47th president of the United States after serving as the 45th president from 2017 to 2021. (He is also the first impeached president to seek re-election.)
“I want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honor of being elected your 47th president and your 45th president,” Trump, who was joined onstage by Vice President-elect JD Vance, said at a campaign party at Florida's Palm Beach Convention Center Nov. 6. "This was a movement like no one has ever seen before. Frankly, I believe this was the greatest political movement of all time.”
“Now it is going to reach a new level of importance,” the 78-year-old continued. “Because we are going to help our country heal.”
As the necessary 270 electoral votes to win began to roll in overnight, many celebrities took to social media to share their reactions to Trump's win and Harris' defeat.
Elon Musk wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter before he purchased the platform in 2022 for $44 billion), "The people of America gave @realDonaldTrump a crystal clear mandate for change tonight."
Meanwhile, Cardi B shared to her Instagram Story, "I hate yall bad."
Added Glee's Kevin McHale, "Sorry rest of the world."
As for Trump's granddaughter Kai Trump—her parents are Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump—she celebrated her family's victory. "No one works harder or cares more about the American people," the 17-year-old wrote. "Congratulations Grandpa, I love you! , the future gonna be fantastic."
Read on for more celebrity reactions to the 2024 presidential election:
