Trump Wins Re-election: A Divided Response

The United States has officially elected Donald Trump as the 47th President, marking a historic moment as he becomes the first president to serve two non-consecutive terms since Grover Cleveland. This election result, which was confirmed early on November 6, 2024, has elicited a wide range of reactions both domestically and internationally. In his victory speech at the Palm Beach Convention Center, Trump declared it a "magnificent victory" and promised to usher in a new "golden age" for America. He emphasized his commitment to stopping wars and maintaining border security, stating, "I will not start wars, I will stop them."

Reactions from Germany: Concern Among Celebrities

In Germany, the reaction to Trump’s re-election has been overwhelmingly negative among celebrities and public figures. Influencer Cathy Hummels expressed her fear, calling Trump a "madman" on social media. TV presenter Vera Int-Veen criticized the U.S. electoral system, labeling it as "crazy," while other personalities like Ruth Moschner voiced their disbelief that a "convicted criminal" could regain power. Despite the outcry, there are also voices of support for Trump, with some German figures advocating for similar policies in their own country.

Economic Response and Future Implications

Following Trump's victory, Wall Street reacted positively, with futures rising significantly. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 both saw increases of over 1.5%. Supporters like Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini praised Trump’s approach to immigration and tax cuts, indicating a broader trend of right-wing support for Trump’s policies across Europe. As the political landscape shifts, both in the U.S. and abroad, the implications of Trump's presidency are expected to resonate widely, impacting not just American politics but international relations as well.
