Donald Trump was elected the 45th president of the United States, Bloomberg reports.
The real-estate developer and reality-TV star, a Republican who has never held public office, defeated Democrat Hillary Clinton. She would have been America’s first woman president.
Trump, 70, was projected to be the victor early Wednesday by the Associated Press and television networks after Wisconsin pushed him over the 270 Electoral College vote threshold needed to become president-elect. When sworn in on Jan. 20, Trump will preside over a government he’s called corrupt and unworthy of trust.
