The Spin

Donald Trump has endured partisan lawfare and unfair persecution since leaving office in 2021, and today’s result is a resounding victory for the American people. This is a mandate for strong borders, a robust economy, an America First approach to foreign policy, and a rejection of failed left-leaning policies. The new Trump administration will pursue bold visions to Make America Great Again.

While Harris will accept the election results once they are tabulated, the ballot-counting process is still ongoing in the face of irregularities in certain states. The questionable actions of certain GOP-led states, particularly regarding local election laws, are ironic, given that thisthey isare exactly what Trump accused Biden of doing in the face of his 2020 defeat. Whether you live in a red or blue state, every American's vote must be counted before a winner is declared.

Metaculus Prediction

There's a 5% chance, if Donald Trump wins the 2024 US presidential election, that he will be incarcerated by 2030, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
