‘Donald Trump is back’. Donald Trump is back. The New York billionaire materialized in the early hours of this Wednesday the most notable comeback in US political history. “This is the most incredible political victory our country has ever seen, I want to thank the American people,” the magnate said from the Palm Convention Center. “This is truly going to be the golden age of America, it will allow us to make America great again (MAGA).” “I will fight for you every day,” the candidate insisted. “USA. He has given us a powerful and unprecedented mandate, we have regained power in the Senate and it looks like we can maintain control of the House of Representatives. (…) It is time to unite, we have to try, success is going to unite us, and we will start by putting the United States first.” A little less than four years ago, after his attempt to turn around the elections that he lost in 2020, after the tragic and embarrassing assault on the Capitol on January 6, 2021 by a mob of his followers, was “radioactive.” This is how one of the heads of ‘Fox News’, the network most followed by conservative America, described it. Many Republicans turned their backs on him. He has had the game at his feet for a long time. And from this Wednesday, also the first world power. Trump was declared the winner in the projections of the main American media starting at a quarter to two in the morning on Wednesday (a quarter to eight in Spain), once It was found that he had achieved victories in enough states to secure the minimum of 270 seats in the Electoral College – the body that elects the US president – that give victory. The party had broken out earlier in West Palm Beach ( Florida), at the convention center where the Trump campaign held its election night.

Without Pennsylvania, his rival, Kamala Harris, barely has a margin to win the election. Shortly after, the projections of the major media finally awarded Pennsylvania to Trump, and the path for Harris became practically unviable. During the night, in an atmosphere of optimism at Trump’s headquarters, other clues showed that the night would smile on the Republicans: Harris’s narrow difference in Virginia, a state that in principle should not be contested by the Republican candidate; the advantage he had also taken in Wisconsin, another decisive state; Trump’s victory in Miami-Dade County, a Democratic bastion where no Republican had won since 1988 and which anticipated a great improvement for the New York billionaire in the Hispanic vote throughout the country. The clearest option for Harris to conquer the White House would maintain the so-called ‘blue wall’, the three decisive northern states: Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin. But the wall fell with the defeat in Pennsylvania. A Trump supporter reacts to the election results while attending the New York Young Republican Club’s viewing party, in Manhattan, New York Reuters “Come on!” shouted a supporter Trump, with a cap and red Jordan sneakers. “This is done!” That was the undisguised feeling among the hundreds of fans here in West Palm Beach. “I want you to start deporting illegals from the first minute,” Tom Bogert assured this newspaper, with his gaze glued to the screen, while results fell, to which he responded by clenching his fist. “It’s impossible for him to lose now,” he added, wearing a cowboy hat with the name of the almost winner and his vice presidential candidate, JD Vance. The immigration chaos of the Biden-Harris Administration has been one of the central messages of the Trump campaign, in addition to, of course, the economy, inflation, the difficulty in buying housing: “Are you better off than four years ago?” , Trump has had enough of asking voters at his rallies. The answer, the election night points out, seems to be ‘no’. It was a night for history. Harris sought to become the first president of the United States. The milestone is resisted by the leading world power and the spoilsport has been Trump, who defeated Hillary Clinton against the odds in 2016, a victory that few counted on, and that now also has prevented Harris from breaking that glass ceiling. History, in fact, has been written by Trump. He becomes the second president in history to achieve two non-consecutive terms – only Grover Cleveland had achieved this until now, at the end of the 19th century -; and, in the process, he snatches a record from the Democrats: Trump is, at 78 years old, the oldest person to win the presidential election, surpassing the current president, Joe Biden. But, above all, Trump’s victory is historic for everything that has happened in the two years that have passed since he presented his candidacy for the presidency in November 2022. The Republican candidate has resisted attacks that, in another era, would have destroyed his options at the first opportunity. He received four criminal charges, was found guilty of crimes by a jury, was blamed for the poor results of the Republicans in the 2022 legislative elections… Despite all this, he swept the primaries. In July, he was miraculously saved from an assassination attempt, in which his figure was strengthened. And now, he has survived the last-minute attempt by the Democrats to win the election with a replacement in his candidacy: Joe Biden, sunk after the debate with Trump last June, gave way to Harris, who has not been able to with the New York billionaire either. Against all that, Trump has prevailed. Now a new chapter in US history opens, after the voters’ decision, the winner claimed that the White House was stolen from him – neither the courts nor the authorities found evidence of massive fraud – and the American people, despite to the great fracture that the results show, has returned the keys.
