The US Congress has officially confirmed Donald Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential election, overcoming the final hurdle for his return to the presidency.
In a ceremony overseen by Vice President Kamala Harris, the event marked a procedural validation of the Electoral College results.
Harris emphasized the importance of a peaceful transfer of power, contrasting the current certification with the chaos of January 6, 2021.
Following the certification, Trump claimed on his platform, "A big moment in history. MAGA!” while his party solidifies its control over Congress.
The certification signifies a major shift within the Republican Party, as many members continue to support Trump’s claims regarding the previous election.
