President-elect Donal Trump took a few moments to thank Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus during his address to supporters early Wednesday morning

He referred to the chairman as “an unbelievable star” and a “very special person who believed [in] me” and said that “I never had a bad second with him,” despite reports to the contrary.
Joking to the crowd, he said of Priebus that “they can’t call you a superstar unless we win” and win they did.
The new president-elect ran an unbelievably lean campaign, relying on social media and interviews with news outlets to get his message out in the beginning.
The one thing he lacked — and his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton, had in spades — was a ground game, and that’s where Priebus excelled.
He brought the entire GOP organization into play with its state, county and precinct workers getting out the vote for Trump.
.@GOP built our ground game operation 4 years ago with tonight in mind. It worked.
