Summary

Donald Trump reclaimed the presidency, becoming the first U.S. president with a criminal conviction to win office and only the second to serve non-consecutive terms, alongside Grover Cleveland.

Congress also welcomed several groundbreaking figures such as:

  • Democrat Lisa Blunt Rochester became Delaware’s first female and Black senator
  • Sarah McBride from Delaware became the first openly transgender member of Congress
  • Angela Alsobrooks as Maryland’s first Black senator
  • Bernie Moreno as Ohio’s first Hispanic senator.
