During an Election Day appearance on "Fox & Friends," President Donald Trump expressed optimism about his chances of winning reelection today, saying he believes his team has a "solid chance of winning" a second term.

"We feel very good," said Trump by phone. He additionally assured viewers that he has no intention of a premature declaration of a win, saying that he will make an announcement "only when there's victory," emphasizing that there is "no reason to play games." 

The president, who spent the final week of the campaign rallying at record speed across swing states, made a final appeal to voters Tuesday morning, touting his record on the economy and telling them that Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden would have an increasingly difficult time checking the political impulses of the far-left wing of his party. 

"Joe's going to have a hard time, he's not going to able to handle them," said Trump, referring to a video conference call between leaders of the progressive movement Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, and Reps. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.), and Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.). Sanders and members of "The Squad" have repeatedly articulated their desire to push a Biden presidency as far to the left as possible.
