14 分钟Good morning.
It's Thursday, November 7th.
I'm Sumita Basu.
This is Apple News Today.
On today's show, how Trump's team landed on a winning message for Americans.
Democrats regroup and soul search after Harris defeat and world leaders react to Trump's reelection.
But first, it's becoming more clear how decisive Donald Trump's victory was on Tuesday night, building a larger and more diverse coalition of voters than any Republican nominee in 20 years and capturing battleground states that were long considered toss ups.
In fact, you could hear some degree of surprise when Trump and his team spoke in the early hours on Wednesday morning when it had become clear that he would win.
Look what happened.
Is this crazy?
And we heard something similar from one of his campaign managers, Chris Lacivita.
This was unexpected, but I just want to thank, obviously, President Trump for this journey.
It was a great one and he's a hell of a candidate and he's going to be a hell of a great 47th president.
Washington Post reporter Isaac Arnsdorf covers politics and has written a book about the MAGA movement.
He told us part of the Trump campaign's success was in its organization.
Even without a robust ground game, it was far more disciplined and consistent than it had been in 2016 or 2020.
And it was able to outsource a lot of ground game efforts to super PACs like Elon Musk's.
The campaign was also more focused in who they were targeting.
Young, black and brown men.
The goal very explicitly was to run up the score with men and with these voters that don't vote as reliably.
