As we look back on the outcome of the 2024 election, pundits are busy pointing fingers and analyzing strategies, trying to unravel how Donald Trump managed to win the presidency again. They’ll scrutinize swing states like Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan, calculating the precise factors that drove his victory, and they’ll dissect every misstep by the Kamala Harris campaign along the way.
Yes, analysts will say that Kamala lost Pennsylvania on account of the economy, as middle-class voters rejected the same broken promises they’d been fed for years.
They’ll argue that Wisconsin tipped because of voters’ disillusionment with Harris’s inability to provide a clear message on security and stability.
Then there’s Michigan, where policies on manufacturing jobs alienated the very people who built that state’s economy.
And who can forget Florida and Ohio, where talk of issues like law enforcement and border security struck a deep chord with local communities?
As for the campaign itself, it’s no secret that Harris struggled. Her strategy never fully resonated with the nation’s mood, her attempts to connect with key demographics fell flat, and her gaffes in public only fueled skepticism. Every time she seemed poised to regain traction, another blunder would surface, reinforcing the impression of a campaign in disarray.
But here’s the twist: none of that is actually why Donald Trump won. Strip away the analysis, the blunders, the states flipping red – because at the end of the day, there’s only one reason he became the 47th president of the United States.
He won because Hashem wanted him to.
Yes, the analysts will scratch their heads, debating the polls and the margins. But sometimes we forget that, above all the political maneuvering and back-and-forth, there is One who orchestrates the outcome. We saw it here: a candidate returning to office against all odds.
And that, dear readers, is the most significant message of all. When the will of Hashem intervenes, the path is set, and there’s no pundit, pollster, or strategist that can stand in the way.
Let this be a reminder to us all: beyond the noise and the headlines, there’s a Divine plan shaping events.

Everything that happens is because Hashem wants it to. No doubt. The question is why He wanted Trump to win? The answer is because of his yiras Shamayim, ahavas Hashem and ahavas habriyos he received from Hashem leadership qualifications and a brilliant mind.
Beautiful, thank you!
I agree. It’s obvious to me and should for everyone. I watched it closely and it really could’ve gone another way too.
100%
It’s just interesting to see how Hashem orchestrated the events…
We should appreciate every move being calculated and how that move triggers the next.. eventually creating the outcome..
And hashem hides himself and makes it seem so natural
All true. It’s because Hashem wanted him to. Hashem has a plan and he’s doing everything to bring the world to the תיקון השלם.
I just don’t understand the arrogance of writing in the headline “it’s not what you think”. Maybe I’m naïve, but I think that probably almost every frum yid knows that very well!
What a terrible headline.
In one fell swoop the author is Mekatreg on Klal Yisroel by writing “it’s not what you think”.
Every SINGLE Yid Knows and believes that Trumps win was because Hashem wants it to be this way.
All of us believe that Hashem is in charge, as you do. So it is how we think.
Very true.
Another reason is – Harris got 15 million less (dead people? Duplicate?) votes than Biden. Trump got the approx. same amount as last time. According to this math, Harris lost because there aren’t enough democrats votes to win president elections, and the silent majority have common sense. Making it pretty obvious what happen in 2020 election…
Absolutely. The new DOJ needs to make a probe of the 2020 steal a priority and prove once and for all that it was stolen and that the modern democrat party became the most deceitful and unethical in our nation’s history and remove this stain from the American electoral system.
You are 100% correct.
And it was also only Hashem’s plan to have Biden/Harris in the White House the past 4 years.
Yaakov M you said that it’s not what you think.

Thank you for the reminder
The REAL reason for this letter – and it’s ot what you think!
Why don’t you be upfront and honest with your agenda?
If it is to strengthen recognition of how Hashem runs His worlds, should the belittling and condescending tone be present?
Is there an alterior motive to encourage Yidden to simply follow what professional askanim sincerely tell them to do – without thinking it through?
Maybe the real reason is what i know and not what you think
President Trump was the first one that realized it and said openly by the first assisnation atempt.
Yaakov M., you said at at the end, “When the will of Hashem intervenes…”
As if sometimes HaShem lets nature run its own course, chv”sh, and only some times He intervenes?
The only shaila is, how/when will President Trump solve the dreaded age-gap crisis that’s tearing our nation apart? Turn the page!
Pretty arrogant to accuse everyone of NOT thinking that Trump won because Hashem wanted him to.
Although I will question does Hashem not give people bechira about who to vote for? When he doesn’t want someone to win do the majority of people lose their bechira to vote for him? People are discussing why the majority of people CHOOSE to vote for Trump. Not why did he win in the end.
Don’t use Hashem’s name in vain.
You have free choice and the people spoke.
Rav Yaakov Kaminetzky said that america will never have a female president
Kamala is a female.
Therefore she wont be president. Simple as pie
