Donald J. Trump who served as the 45th President of the United States of America, is returning as the 47th U.S. President after winning the presidential election, making him the first person to serve two nonconsecutive terms as president since Grover Cleveland in the 19th century.
“The greatest comeback in political history,” tweeted popular Republican political activist and podcaster Brilyn Hollyhand. “He’s been impeached, beat, raided, indicted, arrested, and shot. This morning he won.”
This year has seen one of the more atypical presidential election cycles, with Trump running after being convicted of multiple felonies while Harris was installed as the Democratic Party’s nominee after President Joe Biden quit the race.

Trump secured the GOP nomination in March, having easily won several state-level primaries and besting early favorites, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley.
The nomination was clenched even as Trump continued to face several legal battles pertaining to both his alleged attempts to override the results of the 2020 election and also allegations of sexual assault.
In May, before he officially accepted the nomination at the Republican National Convention, Trump was found guilty on 34 charges by a New York jury in the “hush money” case.
The felony counts were tied to falsifying business records stemming from an allegation that Trump paid porn star Stormy Daniels (real name Stephanie Clifford) $130,000 back in 2016 to conceal an alleged extramarital affair from 2006 while he ran for president.

For his part, Trump has denied the allegations, claiming that the prosecution was politically motivated, and has appealed the ruling.
On July 13, at a Trump campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks climbed on top of a building and opened fire and attempted to assassinate Trump. He hit the upper part of Trump’s right ear while he was speaking and killed one rallygoer and severely injured two others. Crooks was shot dead by a Secret Service counter-sniper soon after.
In September, Trump survived a second assassination attempt when an armed 58-year-old Ryan Wesley Routh got as close as 300 yards from Trump when he was at the Trump International Golf Club in Florida.
