Donald Trump secured a second term as President of the United States after winning key battleground states, as projected by NBC News.

Senator JD Vance, R-Ohio, Trump's running mate, celebrated the victory at the campaign's victory party in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Vance declared, "I think we just witnessed the greatest political comeback in the history of the United States of America."
