The Times is pro-Donald Trump, "you will be so proud" and "the new world" suggest that Trump is a new beginning and will save the American people by creating a better "world" or in this case, nation. They're not very supportive of Trump, they don't include anything which is very bias like "Trump wins yay", but only include how Pro-Trump supporters reflect him by including quotes.
