A massive crowd of Trump supporters gathered at the Central Florida Fairgrounds Friday night, to see the President-elect in person.

"I mean this is fantastic. What president comes after the fact to thank everybody for voting for him," Trump supporter, Teresa Ohlsen, said.

People packed the Orlando Amphitheater of the fairgrounds for the USA Thank You Tour stop.

"'Cause I voted for the man and we really need to make some changes," Trump supporter, Ted Bellville, said

The future president thanked the crowd for their support.

"With your votes, the great citizens of this country declared to the world that from now on it's going to be America first," Donald Trump said.

President-elect Trump repeated his promises to the crowd, emphasizing things like rebuilding our military, taking care of Veterans, shifting foreign policy in a different direction, creating jobs, destroying ISIS and stopping illegal immigration.

"We're going to have strong borders, folks. We're going to make great trade deals and you're going to be proud of your country again…you watch," Trump said.

Trump spoke about election night, the big win, and looking forward to the new cabinet and the new administration.

"I'm asking you to believe once again in America, and if we do that, then all together we will make America strong again. We will make America wealthy again. We will make America safe again," Trump said.

The next stop on the thank you tour is tomorrow; President-elect Donald Trump will be in Alabama.
