Donald Trump has won the 2024 U.S. presidential election, making an extraordinary return to office. His divisive campaign and promises of a radical agenda appealed to a polarized electorate. As the oldest elected president, Trump plans to pursue aggressive policy changes with limited opposition from Congress and the courts.
In a historic return to the White House, Donald Trump has won the 2024 presidential election, defeating Kamala Harris to become the 47th president. This comeback follows his earlier loss in 2020, subsequent impeachment, multiple felony convictions, and two assassination attempts. Trump secured his victory with a pivotal win in Wisconsin, reaching the 270 electoral votes necessary to reclaim the presidency.
Trump’s divisive campaign, marked by strong anti-immigrant rhetoric and personal attacks on Harris, resonated with a polarized electorate, especially male voters. As president, he promises a radical agenda to reshape American government, with plans to target perceived adversaries and a strong emphasis on retribution. Trump has also indicated an intention to pursue expansive deportation efforts and overhaul foreign policy, potentially straining alliances, including NATO.

His election is unprecedented: Trump, now 78, is the first convicted felon and the oldest president elected to office, alongside Vice President-elect JD Vance, a millennial and Ohio senator. Trump’s return is bolstered by a GOP-dominated Supreme Court and loyal allies in Congress, allowing him greater freedom to enact his plans without the resistance he faced in his first term. His presidency, beginning January 20, promises sweeping changes as he assumes office with a cadre of supporters ready to implement his policies.
