US election
Donald Trump won the US presidential election against Kamala Harris by a significant margin. After the inauguration on January 25, 2025, he will officially become the new President of the United States.
Notably, such a decisive victory for Trump was unexpected, as polls had indicated a close race between the two candidates.
So far, Harris has not publicly addressed her supporters following the loss, but she is expected to do it later.
