International Desk, Bangladesh Global: Eight years after Donald Trump’s stunning upset of Hillary Clinton and four years after Joe Biden evicted him from the White House, the former president is now the next president. He has done it again.
After being roundly condemned by Democrats and even some Republicans, he set out on a four-year journey that returned him to the pinnacle of American power. His victory represents a remarkable comeback for a man who left the presidency amidst the wreckage of 6 January, with his reputation seemingly in tatters.
Trump was at times unfocused and abrasive in his rally speeches, but he surrounded himself with a savvy, professional staff. Surveys indicated that Americans trusted Trump on the top two issues of this election—immigration and the economy—and his campaign relentlessly hammered his message on them.
While Trump’s team appeared initially uncertain about how to handle the late switch from Biden to Kamala Harris, the former president ultimately found his footing and rode the wave of anti-incumbent sentiment back to the White House.
Now he has four more years to govern—this time with a more developed political organisation behind him, eager to turn his campaign promises into action.
