Published on: November 06, 2024 - Donald Trump has been elected as the 47th President of the U.S., securing both the electoral and popular votes. He has reshaped the GOP into an isolationist party focused on tariffs. Trump’s victory came as Democrats failed to address key issues like inflation, immigration, and job security. His economic focus and stance on immigration resonated with many voters, including Black and Latino men, while retaining strong support from the white working class. Trump’s return could challenge India-U.S. relations with potential trade tariffs and stricter immigration policies. However, defense ties and the Quad may strengthen. Globally, Trump’s protectionist approach could spark trade wars and reduce U.S. dependence on China. His pro-Israel stance could escalate tensions in West Asia, and his skepticism of multilateral agreements may weaken NATO and global alliances.
