@pbsnews: Former President Donald Trump has won the 2024 presidential election and a second term in the White House, four years after losing the 2020 election to President Joe Biden, the Associated Press reports. With his win over Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump becomes the first former U.S. president since Grover Cleveland in the late 1800s to return to the White House for a nonconsecutive second term. Trump is the first convicted felon to be elected president in American history. A New York jury found him guilty earlier this year in an illegal hush money scheme intended to cover up a sexual encounter with an adult film actress before the 2016 election. Trump has faced three other local or federal indictments this year, including for his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. He was impeached twice as president, but acquitted by the Senate in both cases. At 78, Trump will be the oldest person ever inaugurated as president – a few months older than Biden was when he took office in 2021. #2024election #election #donaldtrump #47president #president #trumppresident #uspresident #electionresults #2024presidentialelection
