The Rise of Donald Trump: A Historic Election

A roar of enthusiasm greeted the announcement of Donald Trump’s victory in North Carolina, marking the beginning of the celebrations at the Palm Beach Convention Center. Supporters chanted “USA, USA,” while electoral projections suggested a Republican triumph. With Italy already in the middle of the morning, the chances for the tycoon’s return to the White House seem increasingly concrete, with Georgia turning red, symbol of the Republican Party. The New York Times estimates that Trump has a more than 90% chance of winning, predicting a final result of 301 electors for him to 237 for Kamala Harris. On social media, Elon Musk expressed his joy with a provocative comment: “Game, set and match.”

Election Projections and the Future of Pennsylvania

Now the focus is on Pennsylvania, where Trump maintains a significant lead. For Harris, hopes seem to fade, with the American media graphs testifying to the shattering of the blue wall that had supported the Democrats. In Washington DC, silence enveloped the supporters of the vice president gathered at Howard University, a historically African-American university and headquarters of her campaign. Here, there were hopes for a historic celebration: the election of the first female president of the United States. However, as in 2016 with Hillary Clinton, the celebrations were canceled.

Democratic Reconfirmations and Republican Preparations

Signs from the Republican field suggest that celebrations may be imminent. Mile Johnson, the re-elected Speaker of the House in Louisiana, is already en route to Mar-a-Lago to join the Grand Old Party in the festivities. Projections suggest that Trump has won 52% of the popular vote, or more than 58 million votes, compared to 46.5% for Harris. Additionally, according to Fox News, Republicans have gained control of the Senate. There are some expected confirmations in the Democratic field; Nancy Pelosi was re-elected to the House to represent California and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez retained her seat in New York. Both names were expected by their supporters. With the current landscape rapidly evolving, the political balance in the United States could undergo significant changes in the coming weeks. The race between Republicans and Democrats continues to outline a complex and fascinating political landscape.
