Supporters of Hillary Clinton have been stunned as Trump sweeps all the major states in America.
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump
Thousands of Hillary Clinton supporters who flooded the
glass-ceilinged Javits Center Tuesday to watch their candidate become
the first woman to be elected president according to Yahoo news.
Tuesday night were beginning to show sharp signs of concern as
they watched Trump pick up several battleground states on the big
screen.
The crowd was nearly silent as they listened to MSNBC’s Steve Kornacki map out Trump’s path to victory — if he takes Michigan and Florida. The Sunshine State has since been called for Trump.
Quickly, the channel cut out and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo took the stage, saying it’s fitting that Clinton will be elected president in New York, “the birthplace of the women’s rights movement.”
“It’s shocking. I can’t believe it’s this close. I’m shocked,” said Terri, a supporter from Washington, D.C., who didn’t want to use her last name. She said she had been fielding texts from family and friends all night, asking her how it could be possible that Trump could win.
Another young woman wearing a pantsuit repeatedly refreshed the New York Times on her phone, a stressed expression on her face. Many supporters sat down near the back, their eyes glued on their phones.
Others turned to gallows humor. “The only consolation is Vladimir Putin is thrilled,” one supporter said to another.
