Good morning, everyone.

0:16.0

I know many of you are in shock.

0:18.2

And, of course, those of you who voted for Donald Trump are celebrating.

0:22.1

It's kind of the day after election day in 2016 all over again, which many Democrats,

0:28.0

especially women and black Americans, Latino Americans, experience grief and fear and

0:32.5

disillusionment with your fellow Americans. Yes. But it's different in many ways, too. Reality is reality,

0:40.9

and here's some of it. This time, Trump won the popular vote. NBC's analysis is that Trump

0:48.7

improved his percentages in 90% of American counties. Republicans took a majority in the U.S. Senate. The House is still

0:57.7

too close to call. Remember, Democrats had the Senate today caused the presidential race not just

So I know that's a lot of numbers, but think about those Latino numbers,

1:46.9

especially, 45% nationally, despite the mantra of mass deportation, aimed mostly at Latinos

1:53.7

crossing the border to seek asylum, and that Latino men number is a realignment one for the history books, assuming it's accurate,

2:04.2

from that NBC exit poll. Trump lost Latino men to Biden by 23 points. This time he won

2:12.6

Latino men outright and not even close. He won them by 10 points. We'll bring on two guests for analysis

2:20.0

and to help take your calls in just a minute. But we've been airing the BBC for the last hour,

2:25.5

so let me give you some local results. It does look like Democrats have flipped at least one
