Donald Trump won a second term in office, marking an unprecedented political comeback nearly four years after leaving the White House. According to Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ), Trump was declared the projected winner after securing crucial swing states, including North Carolina, Georgia, Alaska, and Pennsylvania reaching the crucial 270 electoral votes required to win the presidency. He also claimed several states, including Alabama, Florida, Texas, and Ohio, alongside Nebraska’s third congressional district, strengthening his hold on the electoral race.
