Who will be the president of the United States for the next four years? This question is more relevant than ever in these turbulent geopolitical times. On November 5th, the American people will decide the course of their divided nation in an unstable world. Will Donald Trump get a second chance, or will Kamala Harris take the helm and become the first female president to sit in the Oval Office?
