The 2024 United States presidential election was the 60th quadrennial presidential election. It was held on Tuesday, November 5, 2024. Former President Donald Trump faced incumbent President Kamala Harris and writer and conspiracy theorist Robert F. Kennedy. Donald Trump beat the two Candidates with the best electoral college showing since 2012. He was also the first Republican to win the popular vote since 2004. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had the best 3rd party showing since Ross Perot in 1992.
The issues of the day were, Trump's criminal charges, the 2024 recession, the 2023-2024 United states Banking crisis which started with Silicon Bank collapsing, the Hamas-Israel War, and the Hunter Biden scandal. After Trump's victory with 96 more electoral votes and about 7 million more popular votes than Kamala Harris, he became the first President to win to win a nonconsecutive term since Grover Cleveland.
