Summary

This victory makes Trump the first U.S. president to serve non-consecutive terms since Grover Cleveland and the first with a criminal conviction to hold office.

Democrats were shocked by the loss, particularly as exit polls revealed significant shifts among key demographics: Latino men favored Trump by 10 points, and more voters identified as independents or unaffiliated.

The economy was the top priority for Trump supporters, while Harris voters emphasized democracy and abortion rights.

The election also showed increased dissatisfaction with the country’s direction, as 72% of voters expressed anger or frustration.

    Biden should’ve never run again in the first place. He should have kept to his pledge of being a “one term president” and gracefully made way for the DNC to hold an open primary where the voters could’ve expressed there preference for an actual message, rather than being force-fed yet another campaign of “What are you going to do? Vote for Trump?”
