Donald Trump has been elected as the 47th President of the United States, defeating Vice President Kamala Harris in a historic comeback after losing four years ago. Trump secured both the electoral college and the popular vote, becoming the first Republican candidate since the turn of the century to achieve this. According to the Associated Press, Trump garnered over 71 million votes (approximately 51%) and 277 electoral votes, while Harris received over 66 million votes (around 47.5%) and 224 electoral votes. World leaders, including Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel—the first to offer congratulations—and the Emir of Qatar, have extended their congratulations to Trump on his victory. Trump is currently the president-elect and will be inaugurated on January 20, 2025. He has promised sweeping action in his second administration.
