President-elect Donald Trump crushed the Democrats to take back the White House in a historic political comeback on Tuesday.

Trump is the first convicted felon to be elected president in U.S. history. He faced dozens of criminal charges and survived two assassination attempts.

He is only the second U.S. president to regain the office after losing a re-election.

Record voter turnouts in Georgia, Florida and other red and blue states propelled Trump over the finish line.

Vice President Kamala Harris called Trump to concede in the early morning hours on Wednesday. She is expected to make her concession speech today at her alma mater Howard University in Washington, D.C.

Harris, 60, cancelled her speech at the HBCU just before midnight when it became apparent that Trump was going to win.

Thousands of Harris supporters waited for hours to hear her historic victory speech at Howard University. But they were told to go home when Harris cancelled her appearance before midnight.

Even before her shocking defeat on Tuesday, Democrats wondered if they made a mistake pushing Joe Biden out of the race and installing Harris.

The turning point for Harris’s campaign came when she made an appearance on ABC’s “The View.”

“What, if anything, would you have done something differently than President Biden during the past four years?” co-host Sunny Hostin asked Harris.

Harris responded, “There is not a thing that comes to mind.”

There were other Harris mishaps — such as picking Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate instead of Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro.

Rapper Cardi B, who endorsed Harris for president, lashed out at her fans for letting Harris down. “I hate y’all bad,” she said during a livestream after the race was called.

CNN noted that Trump was re-elected to the White House as a “convicted felon.” Trump was the first former president to be criminally charged.

“It’s an extraordinarily unique position for him to be in: Never before has a criminal defendant been elected to the nation’s highest office,” CNN wrote.

In May, Trump was convicted of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in a hush money scheme in New York.

A New York judge is set to sentence the former president to prison later this month after delaying his sentencing to avoid the appearance of election interference.

Trump still faces charges of hoarding classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago compound in Florida.

Trump, 78, is expected to pardon himself – and he plans to fire special counsel Jack Smith who is prosecuting his Florida case.

Fulton County DA Fani Willis, who was re-elected to a second term on Tuesday, still hopes to put Trump in prison for attempting to overturn the 2020 election.

“It clearly paid off to aggressively push to delay these cases as long as possible,” said Jessica Levinson, a constitutional law professor at Loyola Law School.
