Tom Bradby is leading the liberal meltdown as Trump continues to cement his victory in the US, as he claimed Brits cannot believe that the world’s most important democracy has elected a ‘fascist’.

The ITV presenter joined his station for their election special tonight and while speaking to his guest panel said: ‘There will be a lot of people watching at home who will not be able to conceive that the most powerful democratic country in the world has elected somebody, who people closest to him called a fascist.’ 

This came as Donald Trump won the state of Georgia in a massive boost for his chances of returning to the White House. It came just after his first battleground state victory in North Carolina.

The Associated Press officially projected the former president as the winner of the Peach State in a huge blow for Kamala Harris in a sign her path to the White House is rapidly narrowing.

Other Brits followed Bradby’s suit, including fellow TV presenter Emily Maitlis who mysteriously had to leave her Channel 4 show after it was alleged by her co-host that she swore, allowing her emotions got the better of her.

Her co-host Krishnan Guru-Murthy had to apologise to his panel saying: ‘I will tell Emily off later because I know she started the swearing and it may be the middle of the night in Britain but I know they are still quite sensitive about that stuff.’

This comes as a party atmosphere has kicked off at Mar-a-Lago as results from the presidential election continue to indicate Donald Trump may recapture the White House.

The former president won a wave of states early Tuesday night and looked set to retake several swing states he lost to Joe Biden in 2020, with Trump’s camp saying they were ‘confident’ of victory.

Actor Brian Cox also spoke out as his despair at the way the vote was heading while on Channel 4 earlier tonight, giving a bleak outlook on a Trump victory. 

‘It is the most crucial election there has been in my lifetime and we have to make sure that he [Trump] doesn’t get in, because he is a monster, he really is.

‘He is crazy. He is insane. He wants to be a dictator. 

‘It has all been so clear what he has been talking about, I don’t know why the American people aren’t listening to him.

‘The kind of nonsense that he has been talking. I think he has lost it. I think he is deeply mentally unstable. This is not a man who should be the President of the United States.’ 

He continued: ‘I find it depressing and curiously ridiculous.’

Trump picked up support from Hispanics, traditionally Democratic voters, and among lower-income households that have keenly felt the sting of price rises since the last presidential election in 2020, according to exit polls from Edison.

Trump won 45 percent of Hispanic voters nationwide, trailing Harris with 53 percent, but up 13 percentage points from 2020.

Voters whose top issue was the economy voted overwhelmingly for Trump, especially if they felt they were worse off financially than they were four years ago.

About 31 percent of voters said the economy was their top issue.

And 45 percent of voters across the country said their family’s financial situation was worse today than four years ago.

Trump was earning a bigger share of the vote than he did four years ago in nearly every corner of the country, from suburban Georgia to rural Pennsylvania.

By 11pm officials had nearly completed their count of ballots in more than 1,200 counties, about a third of the country, and Trump’s share was up about 2 percentage points compared to 2020.
