In Miami-Dade County, Trump won with 55 percent of the votes, compared to 43 percent for Vice President Kamala Harris, according to officials. The atmosphere at Versailles was one of jubilation and optimism for the future under Trump’s leadership.

The celebration at Versailles highlights the strong support for Trump among the Cuban community in Miami and reflects the broader sentiment of many Republicans who believe in Trump’s ability to bring about positive change in the country. As the nation prepares for a new presidential term, the enthusiasm and hope displayed by Trump supporters serve as a testament to the impact of his victory on the American people.
