Donald Trump wins the 2024 presidential election

Among Trump’s challengers in the Republican primary, former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley was the most vocal critic of his response to the January 6th riots. Others, including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy, were far less critical of Trump. In the end, most of Trump’s critics within his own party fell in line, and Harris’s efforts to court Trump-skeptical Republicans weren’t enough to push her over the edge. Trump flipped crucial swing states including Pennsylvania and Georgia, giving him the 270 electoral votes needed to win.
