Donald Trump secured a historic political comeback today, winning a second term in the White House after defeating his Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris, in a fiercely contested election.
At 78 years old, the Republican candidate surpassed the 270 electoral votes required to claim victory, with a key win in the battleground state of Wisconsin, making him the oldest person in US history to be elected president. According to the Associated Press, Trump had garnered 277 electoral votes, while Harris had received 224.
Earlier today, in a post on X, PM Modi congratulated Trump on his historic victory. "Heartiest congratulations my friend @realDonaldTrump on your historic election victory,” he said to Trump on becoming the 47th President of the United States.
"As you build on the successes of your previous term, I look forward to renewing our collaboration to further strengthen the India-US Comprehensive Global and Strategic Partnership,” Modi had added.
"Together, let’s work for the betterment of our people and to promote global peace, stability and prosperity,” Modi further said.
Addressing his supporters as the poll projections pointed to his victory, Trump had earlier today said it was a “magnificent victory for the American people”. He also referred to the July 13 assassination attempt and said “God spared my life for a reason”.
