The 2024 election is over — and Donald Trump will return to the White House. Trump won in a landslide, taking every battleground state and the popular vote — but just weeks ago, the media mob was filled with such joy for Democratic Party candidate Kamala Harris.
The View called her the next President of the United States and predicted she’d win in a landslide.

“I think it’s going to be a blowout, actually” said co-host Sunny Hostin.

On Wednesday, the Kremlin expressed cautious hope for potential improvements in U.S.-Russia relations under a second Trump term, although there was skepticism about Trump’s ability to fulfill his promises regarding peace in Ukraine.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov noted, “Let’s not forget that we are talking about an unfriendly country that is directly and indirectly involved in a war against our state,” referring to U.S. opposition to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
When asked whether relations between the U.S. and Russia could worsen under Trump, Peskov responded, “It is almost impossible to worsen them further, relations are at their historically lowest point. What happens next will depend on the next U.S. leadership.”

The liberal late-night hosts put their post-election meltdowns on full display Wednesday evening less than 24 hours after President-elect Donald Trump’s victory over Vice President Kamala Harris, the NY Post reports.

U.S. mortgage rates have surged to their highest point in four months this week, and there’s potential for further increases due to concerns that President-elect Donald Trump’s economic policies could fuel inflationary pressures.
The average interest rate on the widely-used 30-year fixed mortgage rose to 6.79% from last week’s 6.72%, marking the highest rate since July, as reported by mortgage finance firm Freddie Mac on Thursday.
This recent increase marks the sixth consecutive weekly rise, adding up to a 71-basis-point increase since the end of September.
With housing supply still below pre-pandemic levels, these elevated mortgage rates, coupled with high home prices, have stifled sales of existing homes, which reached a 14-year low in September.

Herzog also “expressed his confidence that President Trump would continue to work tirelessly to promote peace and security for Israel and the broader Middle East.”
