Donald Trump has made a dramatic political comeback, winning the 2024 presidential election and becoming the 47th president of the United States. CNN projections confirm his victory over Vice President Kamala Harris, marking his return to the White House after a four-year hiatus following his loss to Joe Biden in 2020. Trump, who previously served as the 45th president from 2017 to 2021, has remained a major figure in American politics, setting the stage for his unprecedented second term.
Before his political career, Trump was a globally recognized businessman and reality TV star. His 2016 victory shocked the nation, as he entered politics with no prior experience, redefining the political landscape. Despite losing re-election in 2020, his influence and strong base of support kept him at the forefront of American politics.
Trump’s 2024 campaign was marred by significant legal challenges, including felony convictions and multiple ongoing criminal investigations. He faced charges related to the Stormy Daniels payment, attempts to overturn Georgia’s election results, and his role in the January 6 Capitol attack. However, Trump has denied the charges, calling them politically motivated.
His return to politics was also marked by a dramatic assassination attempt during a rally in Pennsylvania in July 2024, which he survived. Now, as he prepares to assume office for a second time, Trump’s political journey remains one of the most divisive and resilient in modern American history. His ability to rally support and overcome legal and political obstacles ensures his place as a central figure in the nation’s future.
