Donald Trump will once again be the president of the United States after defeating Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. Major networks, including CNN, declared Trump the winner after he took Pennsylvania after midnight, propelling most outlets to call the election shortly after.
As is customary, world leaders promptly began congratulating Trump. Tones ranged from cautious to outright praise for the Republican, with the notable exception of Mexico's recently elected president Claudia Sheinbaum, who chose to wait to formally recognize a winner in the U.S. presidential election until vote tallies are finalized.
