Trump was declared the winner of the 2024 presidential election early Wednesday morning, sweeping all swing states that have already been called, including Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Georgia and North Carolina.

As of Friday, Trump received 295 electoral voteswith only a handful of electoral votes left to win, and has also led Vice President Kamala Harris in the popular vote by 4 million votes.

Daly argued that Trump’s success stems from voters’ desire to return to an America-first agenda that prioritizes the needs and safety of citizens above all else. He also responded to upset reactions by a variety of celebrities and public figures, such as Cardi B, LeBron James, Billie Eilish and Mark Hamill.

“It goes back to protecting our family,” Daly said. “You’ve got to protect our borders. You’ve got to protect the American citizens. You’ve got to protect the family before you can protect anybody else, and that’s what ‘Daddy’ wants to do. What’s going on (with ) the… Venezuela gang in Colorado take over apartments and people and immigrants taking over hotels and stuff… you have to protect the family, and that’s America.”

“Protect them first, and then we can worry about… many other things outside the United States,” he continued. “But Daddy Trump is about America and his common sense to protect those who live in our country, and he’s just a great person. The whole family is amazing. All they want to do is protect us.”

Daly, who knows Trump through the golf world, said the president-elect predicted this historic moment long before it became a reality.

“We sat on the front porch for about four hours, and… I’m drinking Jack Daniels and Diet Cokes and he’s drinking Diet Cokes, and we were talking, and he loves golf. He’s passionate about golf, but when he got up, he says, “One day I will be the president of the United States, and that was in 1992.”

“People who don’t know the Trump family, they’re the biggest family I’ve ever known.”
