(New York, NY) — Donald Trump will be the next president of the United States.
Republican Trump upended conventional wisdom and delivered a stunning defeat to Democrat Hillary Clinton.
Clinton was thought to have many more paths to the 270 electoral votes needed to secure the White House, but Trump scored wins in several key battleground states.
The billionaire businessman has never held elective office.
He successfully tapped into a nationalistic fervor and a distrust of government and financial institutions.
