Hillary Clinton on Wednesday offered to work with president-elect of the Inuted States of America, Donald Trump.

Clinton, who had hoped to wake up as the first female president-elect, delivered the most painful and potentially final, big speech of her political career after her stunning defeat to Donald Trump in the presidential race.

“Last night I congratulated Donald Trump and offered to work with him on behalf of our country

Donald Trump is going to be our president. We owe him an open mind and the chance to lead

I still believe in America and I always will. And if you do, then we must accept this result and then look to the future," she said, at times choking back emotion.

Clinton called Trump in the early hours of Wednesday to concede defeat after he shattered her Democratic firewall in the Midwest and swept to victory after the most vitriolic general election in generations.

Trump’s campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, said Wednesday that she was with Trump when Clinton’s close aide, Huma Abedin, called to say her boss wanted to talk to the president-elect.

"I handed him the phone and they had a maybe one-minute conversation, very gracious, very warm. I heard Mr. Trump’s side of it," Conway told CNN’s Alisyn Camerota on "New Day. "
