Donald Trump has won a belated second term in the White House after sweeping four of the key battleground states hours after the polls closed on Election Day and consigning Kamala Harris to defeat.
The Republican presidential nominee, who served as commander-in-chief from 2017 to 2021, has just passed the Electoral College magic number of 270 by winning Wisconsin, having already picked up wins in North Carolina, Georgia and, crucially, Pennsylvania.
Counting is still underway in Michigan, Arizona and Nevada but Trump has already delivered a victory speech to his supporters in Florida.
The 45th and now 47th president took to the stage with his family and running mate JD Vance to promise a “golden age for America” and hail “the greatest political movement of all time”, also pledging to “help our country heal” and “fix everything about our country”.
As world leaders rush to congratulate Trump, Harris has yet to comment on her likely defeat, having elected not to appear at Howard University in Washington DC, her alma mater, where a triumphant watch party had been planned in anticipation of victory but which ultimately ended in tears with supporters leaving early.
Just Stop Oil target US embassy in London
Environmental activists have covered the US embassy in London with orange paint in protest of Donald Trump’s victory in the presidential election.
Two campaigners from Just Stop Oil sprayed the embassy’s compound wall with orange paint, a video posted by the group on social media platform X showed.
“Trump’s win puts the lives of ordinary people at risk, everywhere,” Just Stop Oil said.
London’s Metropolitan Police and the U.S. embassy did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment.

Wisconsin pushes Trump over the line
Donald Trump has officially won the 2024 US election, making him the first convicted criminal to be elected president.
The final result has been predicted for some hours but it was the outcome in Wisconsin that ultimately secured his place in the White House.
With 10 Electoral College votes, the swing state pushed Trump over the 270 line needed to secure a majority, with Kamala Harris way behind in 224.
Counting is still underway in Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona and Nevada but Trump has already delivered a victory speech to his supporters in Florida.
