In JD Vance’s words, Donald Trump has pulled off ‘the greatest political comeback in US history’, and will be the next president of the United States. 

He’s the first person in over a century to secure two non-consecutive terms, since Grover Cleveland in 1897.

Andrew Rudalevige, professor of government at Bowdoin College in Maine, joins us from the US to analyse Donald Trump’s ‘historic’ victory, and discuss what his second term as president will look like for America and the rest of the world.
