There was a little bit of deja vu after this week’s US election when Donald Trump defeated a Democrat candidate seeking to become the first female US president.
When he won against Hillary Clinton in 2016, Trump defied expectations. Predictions ahead of that election had ranged from a likely to an almost certain loss for Trump. This time the polls had predicted a much closer race. In the end, Trump was the clear winner.
Despite facing several court cases, some of which may soon be dismissed, Trump is back, only the second president after Grover Cleveland to have non-consecutive terms in office. Trump will return to the White House in January to be sworn in.
