In a stunning turn of events, U.S. President Joe Biden addressed the nation after his vice president, Kamala Harris, lost the election to Republican Donald Trump. Trump’s victory marks one of the most fiercely contested presidential elections in American history, leaving the country without its first female president.
Trump secured the necessary 270 electoral college votes on Wednesday morning, ultimately defeating Harris and clinching his return to the White House. His path to victory was solidified with wins in crucial swing states like Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, with three other swing states—Michigan, Nevada, and Arizona—leaning Republican.
If confirmed as the winner, Trump will have swept all seven battleground states, solidifying his hold on the Oval Office for another term. The outcome of this election is sure to have far-reaching implications for the future of the United States and its political landscape.
As President Biden delivered his statement following the election results, the nation watched in anticipation of what lies ahead under another Trump administration. With tensions running high and the country deeply divided, the next four years are sure to be tumultuous as Americans navigate this new political reality.
