(COMBO) This combination of pictures created on November 07, 2024 shows former US President and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump (L) looks on during a campaign rally at PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on November 4, 2024, and US Vice President Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris (R) speaks at Howard University in Washington, DC, on November 6, 2024. Donald Trump's crushing presidential victory heralded a new era of uncertainty in the United States and the world November 6, 2024, as defeated Kamala Harris gave a defiant concession speech while vowing to help his transition to power. An emotional Vice President Harris told tearful supporters in a speech in Washington to "not despair," urging them to "keep fighting" after her loss. Her pledge to ensure a peaceful handover stood in stark contrast with Republican Trump's unprecedented refusal four years ago to admit defeat against Joe Biden, culminating in the violent attack by his supporters on the US Capitol.
