“Stop, otherwise you get out!” »: Donald Trump's victory heats up the spirits on BFMTV

Around 5 a.m. this Wednesday, November 6, the French learned the news: Donald Trump officially wins the American presidential election and becomes the 47th president of the United States. A historic election, closely followed by the media around the world, including many French media. Just as in the United States, exchanges between supporters of Trump and Harris were particularly tense. As evidence, a heated altercation occurred shortly after 6 a.m. on the BFMTV set: while the continuous news channel was following the latest results of the counting live, the tension rose a notch between the presenters and a guest.

At that time Christophe Delay and Adeline François received Philippe Karsenty, spokesperson for the US Republican Party in . Sure of Trump's victory, he accused the Democratic candidate of pouring out “propaganda” against the new President, just described as a criminal. “They said that Trump was a fascist,” protested Philippe Karsenty to a frankly annoyed Adeline François: “Stop, no… You stop! We're not in the business of invective this morning, we're in the results. We'll cut your microphones if you don't stop, otherwise you'll get out if you want to continue!” Christophe Delay also called for calm before resuming the thread of his presentation.

Popular vote, Senate and Congress: full success for Trump

“Historic” is the right word to describe the 2024 American presidential election. The reason? This is only the second time in American history — and the first since the 18th century — that a president who lost his re-election ran again four years later and won. Additionally, Donald Trump not only won the popular vote, but he also won the majority of voters and is poised to take control of Congress. As we write this article, Donald Trump has won 277 electoral votes, compared to 224 for Kamala Harris. Note that you have to win 270 to win the presidential election. Checkmate for the Democrats.
