The Ayrshire golf course owner becomes US president for the second time.
Donald Trump has won the 2024 US presidential election. The Republican nominee has had a landslide victory over Kamala Harris as he has now passed the number of electoral college votes needed to win.
The Ayrshire golf course owner is also set to win the popular vote - which he has never managed in an election before. It marks a resounding night for the Republicans, who are on track to win the Senate and the House of Representatives. This would make it easier for Trump to pass legislation. Trump declared victory in Florida on Wednesday morning. He said he had won a “magnificent victory for the American people” and that “America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate.
He said that he would not let his backers down and that it is “time to put the divisions of the past four years behind us”, as he looks likely to win the presidency for the second time. Addressing a campaign party in Florida in the early hours of Wednesday, Trump pledged to “fight” for “every citizen” and promised the “golden age of America”.
Trump said: “Every single day I will be fighting for you with every breath in my body. I will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe and prosperous America that our children deserve, and that you deserve.” He added: “This is a magnificent victory for the American people that will allow us to make America great again.”
