It’s a celebration for the Republican Party, as they have secured the White House…Donald Trump is the 47th US President!
Donald Trump has taken home the crown, winning a historic second term as President of the United States. He won four of the key battleground swing states, hours after polling stations shut their doors on election day. Trump’s victory ultimately led to the defeat of current Vice President and rival, Kamala Harris.
Donald Trump is the 47th US President, but how did he manage to take home the crown?
The Republican presidential candidate surpassed the Electoral College’s critical threshold of 270 votes after winning the swing state of Wisconsin.
Additionally, he dominated many other important swing states. CBS reported him winning Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Georgia, and North Carolina.
The final count later confirmed that Trump won three out of the five electoral votes in the state of Nebraska. Harris managed to secure only one electoral vote. Other swing states—Arizona, Michigan, and Nevada—were determined to be too close to call a winner.
Moreover, it came as no surprise that Trump won over many conservative territories. Examples include Florida, Idaho, Alabama, and Tennessee. Harris, on the other hand, dominated heavily liberal-leaning states, including New York, California, Washington, and Virginia.

“We’re going to help our country heal, help our country heal,” Trump added.
