Donald Trump has been elected president, again. In the Nov. 5 election, he defeated Vice President Kamala Harris with record gains in virtually every corner of the country, flipping at least four swing states and connecting with traditionally Democratic constituencies. He was also on track to become the first Republican to win the popular vote in two decades.
The former president pulled off his astounding resurgence despite trying to overturn a previous election, being convicted of 34 felonies and facing three other criminal cases.
The outcome has left questions swirling about the future of the United States and what the impact will be on Canada. Democrats are assessing what happened, Trudeau is making moves to prepare Canada on a number of fronts, and industries are bracing for high tariffs.
On Nov. 12 at 1 p.m. ET, Globe correspondents Nathan VanderKlippe and Adrian Morrow, along columnists Marsha Lederman and Konrad Yakabuski answered reader questions about the 2024 U.S. election.
