At 11:30 PM PST Google called the race for Donald Trump making the Republican the 45th President of the United States.

Hillary Clinton, in a phone call to Donald Trump, has conceded though at the time Michigan, New Hampshire, Maine, Arizona and Pennsylvania have yet to be counted.  Trump needed a win in only one of the remaining states and was leading in every remaining state except New Hampshire at the time of the call.  No formal announcement from Clinton has been scheduled.

Trump gave possibly the most unpoetic and uninspiring speech in American political history.

Much more to come.
