I finally went to bed at around 1 am ET, so I did not get to see Trump’s acceptance speech. Did Clinton call him to concede yet?

About 1:30 AM CT. There are a couple of threads in Breaking News, if you want to read the comments (as it was happening):

Major Garrett on CBS: HILLARY HAS CALLED TO CONCEDE TO TRUMP

Hillary Called Trump And Conceded (per CNN)

BREAKING: Hillary Conceded

Yes, we were told that she had phoned Trump and conceded. However, I wonder if it was that easy. Podesta gave a short statement and he did not concede, quite the opposite. And then when Trump took the stage to give his speech he shook his shoulders and made an aside comment to the audience, like asking forgiveness for being late:

“Sorry to keep you waiting, complicated business.”

I wonder if the Trump Campaign had not been forced to be quite tough with HRC before she conceded. Something we will probably never know for certain, but it is my guess.
