The reasons that led Trump to win the US presidential election

After the completion of the exercise of counting representation votes in the states (electoral college), the Republican party candidate Donald Trump has emerged as the official winner of the election by grabbing 295 votes. The Democratic party candidate Kamala Harris got 226 votes for the representation of the states.

Harris' defeat in the presidential election and Trump's resounding victory was something that was not expected. Harris has consistently trailed Trump in several polls conducted in recent months by media outlets and polling stations. This issue also involved seven unpredictable states. However, just a few days before the election, the situation changed in those states, also known as battleground states, with Trump surpassing Harris in many of them or very close to him in votes.

Biden and Harris

The issue that is bothering the heads of experts right now more than ever is wanting to know what reasons led Trump to win the 2024 presidential election? All those reasons may be collected in the basket of one main reason, by analyzing the reason in different directions. One of the main reasons is the great complaints of Americans who are not satisfied with the current state of their country, and have hope that maybe the situation will change with the entry into power of a new president, who served there before being in the White House.

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham has written the following on the X social network about the results of the US presidential election: "These results should not be interpreted as a paradox, when 70% of citizens believe that the United States is following the wrong path; and when the candidate of The democrat who is the vice president is leading the United States in the wrong direction, so it is likely that you will lose. Simply put, the last four years have brought a lot of misery to Americans, so much so that they cannot afford to live due to the increase in prices of things and wages. The world is on fire in the true sense of the word. Expecting victory (for the Democrats) in this situation was never acceptable".

The truth is that, as was the case in the 2020 presidential election, where the Americans voted for the Democratic Party candidate Joe Biden with the hope of an improvement after being disappointed by Trump's performance and his strange behavior, as well as several scandals surrounding him ; right now also, after four years of difficult conditions, especially due to high inflation that has not been witnessed in the last thirty years, the increase in the price of oil, the worsening situation in the case of illegal immigrants, as well as dissatisfaction with policies and the direction of the Biden government in relation to the war in Ukraine and the war in Gaza, all of that seems to have made more than 50% of Americans come to the conclusion that they have every reason to trust him and vote for Trump the promises he made, especially in terms of improving the economic situation and dealing strictly with illegal immigrants.

In the most recent results of an opinion survey conducted before the election, it was found that Americans trust Trump in terms of the economy and dealing with the problem of illegal immigrants, and they trust Harris in protecting democracy and guaranteeing health insurance for all.

There is no doubt that, Biden's record in foreign policy, in which Kamala Harris is also involved as his vice president, is unacceptable. In recent years, the Biden administration has provided tens of billions of dollars to help Ukraine militarily and with weapons, in the war with one of the main enemies of the United States, namely Russia, an issue that has been strongly opposed by Republicans, including Trump.

In addition, since the Gaza war began, instead of making efforts to end it, the Biden government provided arms aid of nearly 19 billion dollars to Israel and thus bears the responsibility of being directly involved in the continuation of the war and the genocide of Palestinians carried out by The Zionist regime.

That action of Biden was faced with great opposition in the United States by young people and especially students and led to the emergence of a movement of students who support the Palestinians to face the policy of the Biden government. And Kamala Harris, as Biden's vice president, instead of making effective and meaningful efforts to end the Gaza war by starting with a ceasefire, was content to make statements that have no effect on the matter; and instead emphasized several times to support Israel in all circumstances.

All of these reasons, internal and external, made a large part of the American society lose hope for the Democrat Party and its candidate Kamala Harris and thus turn to Donald Trump, the Republican candidate in the 2024 presidential election, in the hope that he may improve the environment and the situation inside and outside the United States.../
