Republican Sen. John Kennedy of Louisiana explained Monday how voters sent a clear message in Tuesday’s election to “experts” in Washington, D.C.
Former President Donald Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris in the election, securing more than the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the presidency early Wednesday morning while making significant gains with Hispanics, young people and black voters. Kennedy said the message voters delivered was “really simple.”
“We saw what everybody else saw on Tuesday night. Despite what the so-called experts in Washington say, with their NPR tote bags and their organic broccoli, this was a really simple message from the people,” Kennedy told “America’s Newsroom” co-hosts Bill Hemmer and Dana Perino. “Republicans aren’t perfect, but the other side is crazy. And President Trump is going to do things differently, and we will pick a leader who will help him do that.”
