“It's the beginning of a new era. What a blessing to live in this wonderful country where we can vote for reform every 4 years,” the former Milwaukee Brewers star wrote. “The silent majority spoke last night. They strongly reject the anti-American policies of the Socialists.”
Lucroy spoke out against the inclusion of women's sports and called the idea “weird.” He also reminded those who voted for the Harris-Walz ticket what votes mean.
“The person who was commenting last night said we 'corrected ourselves' as a nation. The people, WE the people, went to face the disease that was upon us,” he added. “I am proud to be an American today. I look forward to watching Trump, Elon, RFK, and others clean up the swamp that is our government.

“Remember that if you vote for the other side, you are rejected. HARD, and by a SUPER MAJORITY. That means your views and feelings were not shared by the general public.
“Maybe it's time to go home and look in the mirror. Maybe you've been listening to the wrong words. Get up, heal, and don't be emotional about it.”
Fox News predicted Trump would win Pennsylvania and Wisconsin early Wednesday to seal Trump's deal.
Trump also carried the three states of Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Utah, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Alabama, Tennessee, Indiana, Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, North Carolina, West Virginia, Florida and the state of Maine.
