Donald Trump has a final message to his supporters in the election’s waning hours: “We have to win.”
The GOP nominee tells his final rally crowd in Grand Rapids, Michigan that: “If we don’t win, this will be the single greatest waste of time, energy and money in my life.”
Trump’s final event at a local convention center was surprisingly staid, with none of the theatrics of an earlier rally in a packed arena in New Hampshire.
As he spoke, dozens of people streamed toward the exit, forming a procession in front of an area where reporters were stationed.
Some said they were trying to get closer to the door. But most said they were leaving because they were tired, wanted to beat traffic or had heard enough.
Trump says now that he’s finished his campaign, his “new adventure” will be “making America great again.”
