Trump wins election, signals plans to reshape democracy's foundations

Former President Donald Trump has won a significant victory in the latest election, marking his return to power after previously losing in 2020. Many voters expressed concerns about democracy but still chose Trump, who has indicated plans to challenge established norms. Trump's campaign focused on themes of discontent and upheaval, with nearly 40% of his supporters seeking major changes in governance. He has promised to use presidential power to target political opponents and alter the civil service, potentially reshaping the government. Despite concerns about authoritarianism, Trump’s victory reflects a desire among many voters for a disruptive approach. His administration will now face challenges in implementing these changes, with the Supreme Court and congressional control remaining key factors.
