_Editor's note: This story replaces a previously published version of the same story._

[Donald Trump](https://time.com/6972021/donald-trump-2024-election-interview/) has won the 2024 election and will be President for a second time, according to the Associated Press. The [AP called the race](https://time.com/7171938/2024-election-results/) early Wednesday morning after determining that [Vice President Kamala Harris](https://time.com/7081350/kamala-harris-presidential-platform-policies/) had no mathematical path to victory based on the votes tallied so far.

Trump’s win marks a stunning political comeback for the former President and celebrity businessman after [he lost in 2020](https://time.com/5907973/donald-trump-loses-2020-election/) to Joe Biden and then refused to accept the results, encouraging his supporters to [violently storm the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021](https://time.com/6692956/trump-supreme-court-insurrection-jan-6/) to try to overturn his loss.

Trump, 78, campaigned with a central message that the Democrats had fumbled the economy and the border, and that he could fix it all. He pledged to ease taxes on the rich, ramp up tariffs on foreign made goods, and move to deport millions of people living in the country without authorization. After the three Supreme Court appointments from his first term led to the Court [ending a federal right to abortion access](https://time.com/7024133/pregnancy-criminalization-post-dobbs/) in 2022, Trump said he would leave the issue up to the states.

His stump speeches were marked with dark images of [immigrants as violent criminals](https://time.com/7171654/donald-trump-immigration-plan-2024/). During his one debate with Harris, he repeated a baseless conspiracy theory that immigrants in Ohio were eating people’s pets. He pitched himself as a strongman who would not let the typical constraints on the Presidency hold him back from going after his political opponents, who he repeatedly called the “enemy within.” Trump also said he’d use the military to put down protests and help him implement his immigration policy. 


In the final months of his tumultuous 2024 campaign, Trump survived two assassination attempts and the FBI foiled a third plot by Iran to hire a hitman to kill him. After an assassin’s bullet grazed his ear during a rally in Butler, Pa. in July, Trump rose and pumped his fist and told the crowd to “fight.” In September, a Secret Service agent opened fire on a man aiming a rifle at Trump on the edge of his golf course in West Palm Beach. 

Trump won the election despite being [convicted on 34 counts of fraud](https://time.com/6983196/donald-trump-convicted-hush-money-trial-new-york/) by a New York jury, facing charges for interfering with the 2020 election in Georgia and being the subject of federal criminal investigations into his effort to overturn the 2020 election results and his handling of classified documents. Though he has no control over the state charges, Trump is likely to shut down the federal cases against him.

Trump’s win makes him only the second President in American history to win back the White House four years after being voted out. It hasn’t happened since Grover Cleveland won his way back to the Oval Office in 1892 after being kicked out by voters in 1888.

Be an American wearing these stands. And I won't forget the men who Thank you very much, Wow. Well, I want to thank you all very much. This is great. These are our friends. We have thousands of friends on this incredible movement. This was a movement like nobody's ever seen before. And frankly, this was, I believe, the greatest political movement of all time. There's never been anything like this in this country and maybe beyond. And now it's going to reach a new level of importance because we're going to help our country heal. We're gonna help our country heal. We have a country that needs help, and it needs help very badly.

We're gonna fix our borders. We're gonna fix everything about our country. And we made history for a reason tonight, and the reason is going to be just that. We overcame obstacles that nobody thought possible, and it is now clear that we've achieved the most incredible political thing. Look what happened. Is this crazy? So want to thank the American people for the extraordinary honor of being elected your 47th president and your 45th President. And every citizen, I will fight for you, for your family, and your future. Every single day, I will be fighting for you. And with every breath in my body, I will not rest until we have delivered the strong, safe, and prosperous America that our children deserve and that you deserve.

This will truly be the Golden Age of America. That's what we have to. This is a magnificent victory for the American people that will allow us to make America great again. We also have won the popular vote. That was great. Oh. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Winning the popular vote was very nice, very nice. I will tell you. It's a great feeling of love. We have a great feeling of love in this very large room. With unbelievable people standing by my side, these people have been incredible. They've made the journey with me, and we're going to make you very happy. We're going to make you very proud of your vote.

I hope that you're going to be looking back someday and say that was one of the truly important moments of my life when I voted for this group of people beyond the president, this group of great people.
