Joyce’s New Yorkers took Democrat Joe Biden to the streets on Saturday to win the White House in celebration as a celebration of Mogul affairs and the former The Apprentice star was told: “You are fired.”
Party-goers rejoiced in a city that worked for years with the president, which rose to prominence in real estate in New York City.
A reliable Democratic stronghold, America’s financial capital’s contempt for Republican politics was no secret.
Manhattan residents shouted and applauded, some waving flags and others flapping their balconies as car horns pounded.
Catherine Griffin cried for joy with one of her two children, telling AFP: “I’m glad Trump is gone from our lives, hope forever.”
The 47-year-old said: “To have a somewhat normal situation in our lives and to be able to see my children again was a decent human being.”
Hundreds of people gathered in front of Trump Tower, like a large crowd at Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn – in a jerk to the outgoing president “You’re fired!” Apprentice of his days hosting The Apprentice – sing “Trump fired!”
Thousands of people came face to face in Times Square and Columbus Circle, where a demonstration turned into a huge party to protect the integrity of the ballot count.
“Biden finally won,” said JD Beebe, 35, who works at an online business.
He said, “I feel like this is a very American moment.” I know the country is split 50/50, but I still think it’s a great day for democracy.
“Honestly, I don’t see everyone on a roller coaster every day saying ridiculous things about our leaders, or what they’re going to do for a part of the community that is suffering.”
