TRUMP RETAKES WHITE HOUSE, ELECTED AS 47TH US PRESIDENT

DEFYING the effort of the US mainstream media at ‘vote trending’ to favor his opponent, former president, Donald Trump, was reelected anew as the 47^TH president of the United States even before the final tally of votes was counted during the November 5 US elections.

Needing just 270 electoral votes to win out of the 538 total, Trump overwhelmed Democratic Party candidate, Vice President Kamala Harris, by garnering 295 electoral votes, compared to 226 for Harris.

Trump also won in the popular votes, garnering over 73 million votes (50.8 percent) compared to the over 68.5 million votes of Harris (47.7 percent).

Trump also led the Republican Party in dominating the US Congress with 53 elected senators and 210 elected congressmen compared to the 45 senators and 198 congressmen, respectively, for the Democratic Party.

After the 2020 elections, the numbers have been split with more Democrats as senators but more Republicans in Congress.

Among the greatest political comeback

The history of US presidential elections showed that Donald Trump would be the third candidate to stage a political comeback after defeat, mirroring the case of Republican candidate Richard Nixon in 1968 and General Andrew Jackson in the 1828 elections.

Nixon narrowly lost to President John F. Kennedy in the 1960 elections, was in political limbo when Republican Sen. Barry Goldwater was beaten by President Lydon Johnson in the 1964 elections but went on to defeat Democratic Vice President Hubert Humprey and Independent candidate, George Wallace, a former governor of Alabama, in the 1968 election.

Nixon would win by a massive, history-making, landslide during his reelection in 1972 against Democratic Senator George McGovern of South Dakota.

In 1972, Nixon took 49 states for 520 electoral votes against only 2 states for McGovern for only 17 electoral votes; he also took 47.2 million popular votes (60.7 percent) against 29.2 million popular votes for McGovern (37.5 percent).

Despite this, Nixon would be forced to step barely 2 years later, in August 1974, due to the ‘Watergate Scandal.’

Jackson, for his part, won the 1828 elections against President Quincy Adams after being cheated via the Electoral College during the vote count in the 1824 elections that resulted to the election of Adams.

In their next encounter 4 years later, Jackson took 178 electoral votes compared to just 83 for Adams. Jackson would be reelected in the 1832 election then retired from politics.

In the case of Trump, he had to battle four years of persecution by the Biden administration that includes dozens of lawsuits and the propagation of the hoax of ‘Russian interference’ that allegedly help him win in the 2016 elections.

Trump also had to survive two consecutive assassination attempts, the first on July 13, in Butler, Pennsylvania, and the second at his golf course in Florida, last September 15.

The Russian interference claim was later proven to be a disinformation operation by the Democratic Party in cahoots with rogue elements from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the US intelligence community.

This year’s race was also marred by the US mainstream media propagating the myth that it would be a “tight” or “close” race between Harris and Trump, while others are hedging their bets just to be on the “safe” side.

Ahead of the polls’ opening, ‘Reuters’ claimed Americans would be lining up to vote “in a tight race.”

On November 3, both the NBC and the New York Post showed data claiming both candidates statistically tied at 49 percent.

The New York Times, which, along with the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times, earlier said they would not endorse any candidate this election, broke ranks and in the end issued a statement endorsing Harris.
