WASHINGTON: Republican leader Donald Trump is back in the White House in a historic comeback in the US presidential election. The official result will be announced on January 6, 2025. Trump will be sworn in on January 20 as the 47th president of the United States.

World leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, congratulated him. Trump won a majority in the popular vote and the Electoral College. The Republican Party won a majority in the Senate, the upper house dominated by the Democrats, and the House of Representatives. With this, the next four years in the United States will be the era of control of a powerful man called Donald Trump.

Democratic presidential candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris, who was expected to mark the historic feat of becoming America’s first female president, lost to Trump in a tough contest.

History repeats itself after 127 years

It is 127 years since the person who lost the election while being president of the United States won the next time and became president again. Grover Cleveland achieved this feat in 1893. Cleveland first became president in 1885-1889. He lost in 1889 and won in 1893 and became president again.

Trump has many records; bad names too

# The oldest (78) president to take office in the United States

# The first Republican in 20 years to win both the electoral vote and the popular vote to become president.

# The first president to be convicted of a crime. There are four other criminal cases.

# A case of inciting a mob to attack the Capitol building without acknowledging the defeat in 2020.

# Tried to sabotage Biden’s victory. Two impeachments. Vodka & board game in his own name.

Victory in swing states too

Trump won a majority in all seven crucial swing states. Trump received 93 electoral votes also. This was a fatal blow to the Democratic Party, which won all six swing states last time.
