A lot of people are still shocked that Donald Trump pulled off this major political upset.
 
We've been talking to people all day and some are still surprised.
 
Well into the night, Republicans packed the South Point casino and they were happy as they watched the results come in.
 
Many of them were saying this was a perfect storm and it's time for change.
 
We talked with one man this morning who says he voted for Trump and he knew this was coming. 
 
"As time went on, we wanted him to win", says Jerry Gallagher.
 
We've also been tracking reaction from both sides on social media. #TheMorningAfter was trending on Twitter and so was #WhatDoWeTellTheChildren.
