Trump Wins 2024 Election in Landslide, Sweeping Electoral College and Popular Vote, Raising Concerns Over Ukraine Aid

Nov 9, 2024, 06:17 PM

Donald Trump has been declared the winner of the 2024 presidential election, achieving a landslide victory in both the electoral college and the popular vote. This outcome raises significant questions regarding the future of U.S. support for Ukraine amid ongoing conflict with Russia, particularly in light of Trump's previous statements on foreign aid. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Sybiha announced that a meeting is being prepared between President Volodymyr Zelensky and Trump, indicating that dialogue has already begun. The election results have also highlighted a shift in the Latino vote, with reports suggesting that Trump’s influence may have grown among Latino voters, including some who previously supported both Trump and Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. As Trump prepares to take office, the Democratic Party faces criticism for its lack of new strategies in response to his electoral success.
