Obama, wife releases statement after Trump's win

In a statement issued on Wednesday, Obama said that while this was not the outcome he had hoped for, he and his wife, Michelle, wished to congratulate Trump and JD Vance on their victory.

"This is obviously not the outcome we had hoped for, given our profound disagreements with the Republican ticket on a whole host of issues. But living in a democracy is about recognizing that our point of view won't always win out, and being willing to accept the peaceful transfer of power."Michelle and I could not be prouder of Vice President Harris and Governor Walz — two extraordinary public servants who ran a remarkable campaign. And we will always be grateful to the staff and volunteers who poured their heart and soul into electing public servants they truly believed in."
