Donald Trump’s has won over Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election. It marks a historic and improbable comeback for the former president. Trump has overcome the Department of Justice and mass media machine weaponized against him and his family for the past 8 years.
“We overcame obstacles that nobody ever thought we could,” he said on election night after a bruising campaign. He vowed to fight for every family and for their futures. “This will truly be the golden age of America,” he promised.
Trump has won the battleground states of North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — surpassing the electoral vote threshold of 270 by 6 votes with a total of 276. Votes were still being counted in the other battleground states of Michigan, Nevada and Arizona when Trump secured the presidency.
Throughout his two-year campaign, Trump hammered President Biden, and later Harris, on inflation and the economy. It’s a message that resonated with voters, whose views on the economy are more negative now than they were in 2020.
