Donald Trump was elected US president on Wednesday, November 6, capping a remarkable comeback four years after he was voted out of the White House and ushering in a new American leadership likely to test democratic institutions at home and relations abroad.
Trump claimed victory in the 2024 US presidential election in the early hours of Wednesday, declaring an "unprecedented and powerful mandate" as he addressed supporters in Florida, despite many states still counting votes.
The Republican nominee, flanked by family members and key allies, asserted wins in several battleground states and projected a Senate majority for his party.
