Donald Trump has won the 2024 U.S. presidential election, securing both the popular vote and the Electoral College. He received over 72 million votes, while his opponent, Kamala Harris, garnered fewer than 68 million. Trump's success was attributed to increased support from minority groups, including Black and Latino voters, and young men. His outreach on social media helped him connect with these demographics, contrasting with Harris's focus on abortion rights, which did not resonate with young male voters. Economic issues, particularly inflation, played a significant role in the election. Many voters expressed dissatisfaction with rising prices under the Biden administration, which contributed to Trump's victory.
