Congratulations are pouring in for Trump's presidential victory

World leaders, politicians and celebrities congratulate Donald Trump on his election as the 47th President of the United States and his victory over Vice President Kamala Harris.

Hours before the AP called the election, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky were among the first to congratulate the Republican presidential candidate.

Netanyahu called Trump's victory “the greatest comeback in history,” adding that it represented a “new beginning for America.”

“Dear Donald and Melania Trump, congratulations on the greatest comeback in history!” He wrote on X. “Your historic return to the White House represents a new beginning for America and a strong commitment to the great alliance between Israel and America. This is a huge victory!”

Zelensky recalled on

“We look forward to an era of a strong United States of America under the decisive leadership of President Trump,” Zelensky wrote. “We depend on continued strong bipartisan support for Ukraine in the United States.”

South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham offered words of encouragement to Democrats while calling on Republicans to govern.

“To my Democratic friends: Take a deep breath. The sun will rise. The world will change and despite what Oprah says, we will have another choice,” Graham wrote on social media. “To my Republican friends and colleagues: Get ready to govern and transform the country. Budget reconciliation, here we come.”

Billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban, who has been a vocal supporter of Harris, congratulated Trump, saying: “Congratulations, Donald Trump. They won fair and square. Congratulations also to Elon Musk.”

Musk gave more than $70 million to his super PAC to help Trump and other Republicans win, making him one of the biggest donors to Republican causes this campaign season.
