Donald Trump has won a second term in the White House, becoming the first convicted criminal to be elected president in the United States and allowing him to carry out his radical vision for a far more conservative country, with power concentrated in his hands.
The president-elect, who is the second person to be elected to America’s highest office for non-consecutive terms, claimed his win was “a political victory that our country has never seen before” when he addressed supporters Wednesday morning after he was projected to win Pennsylvania and closed off Vice President Kamala Harris’s path to the White House by preventing her from reaching the requisite 270 electoral votes.
