Kamala Harris loses 2024 presidential election to Donald Trump.

• Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, will triumph over Kamala Harris, his Democratic opponent, and secure another four years in the White House.
• Trump is just the second president to win two nonconsecutive White House terms.
• Sen. JD Vance of Ohio will be the vice president along with him.
• Trump's victory prevents Harris from becoming the first female president of the United States.

According to NBC News, Donald Trump will defeat Kamala Harris and secure another four years in the White House as the Republican presidential nominee.

Trump, the 45th president, will now become the 47th after losing his reelection bid to President Joe Biden in 2020.

Trump's election marks several historic firsts. At 78, he is the oldest person to win a U.S. presidential election. He will be the first president in 132 years to serve two nonconsecutive terms in office. Additionally, his victory came after the most expensive presidential race in history.

He is the first president to be convicted of crimes, win back the White House after being impeached twice, and take office while facing active federal and state criminal charges.

Trump's victory prevents Harris from achieving her goal of becoming the first female president of the United States.

In 2016, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio won his first election, which was a remarkable political accomplishment for Trump's running mate.

Vance, a former Trump critic turned loyalist and top advocate for the president-elect's right-wing populist movement, has become the first in the presidential line of succession at just 40 years old.

If Trump follows through on his campaign pledges, his second administration will soon implement a bold, divisive plan that includes significant tax cuts, large-scale deportations, and a restructuring of foreign alliances.

Trump has pledged to impose high tariffs, arguing that they will increase U.S. earnings, fortify domestic businesses, and discourage undesirable foreign rivalry.

American consumers will face higher prices due to the tariffs, as warned by mainstream economists.

The extent to which Trump's presidential agenda will align with his campaign promises remains uncertain.

He has pledged to grant clemency to his supporters who engaged in violent protests at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.

The Biden administration's policy of strong support for Kyiv is at risk due to a vague stance from the White House that he will quickly end Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vocal vaccine skeptic, would be put in charge of health policy, while billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk would propose trillions of dollars in government spending cuts.

He has denied being a dictator, except for on Day One.

A campaign like no other

The campaign that delivered Trump's election was no less historic.

In July, a 20-year-old Republican donor named Thomas Matthew Crooks attempted to assassinate Trump during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. Crooks fatally shot one attendee and grazed Trump's ear with a bullet, causing his face to bleed.

The moment Trump reacted to the shooting by pumping his fist and urging his supporters to "fight!" as Secret Service agents escorted him off stage, became a pivotal point in the campaign.

Just a few days later, the race was shaken up again.

In July, Harris became the Democratic presidential nominee after Biden decided not to run again.

Biden's decision to end his presidency early, making him the first incumbent president since Johnson to do so, was initially resisted by him.

For four years, the 81-year-old and his allies, including Harris, had vigorously maintained his physical and mental fitness to remain as president.

In late June, a frail and distracted-looking Biden delivered raspy, halting and inarticulate answers versus Trump during a shocking debate, causing a simmering undercurrent of Democratic uneasiness to boil over.

Biden ended his campaign and backed Harris as his replacement less than a month later, due to a lack of internal support and declining poll numbers.

The switch effectively reset the race, requiring Trump to adapt to an opponent without Biden's most glaring weaknesses.

In mid-September, Trump lost to Harris in their only debate, and he refused to participate in any more.

As Biden's approval ratings declined due to inflation and immigration issues, Trump's campaign began to blame Harris for these problems.
