After losing the re-election to President Joe Biden in 2020, Donald Trump, the 45th president, has now been elected as the 47th.
Trump’s victory sets several historic records. At the age of 78, he becomes the oldest individual to win a U.S. presidential election. He is the first president to serve two nonconsecutive terms since Grover Cleveland 132 years ago, and his win comes from what is likely the costliest presidential race in history.
Also, he is reportedly the first president, whether in office or former, to have been convicted of crimes. He is also the first president to be impeached twice and then reclaim the presidency. Additionally, he is the first to assume office while actively facing criminal charges in both federal and state courts.
This victory for Trump prevents Vice President Harris from achieving what would have been a historic feat: becoming the first female president of the United States.
