'Historic comeback win,' 'He's Don It Again!': How newspapers, magazines are covering Trump's victory

In the moments after the Associated Press called the presidency for Donald Trump early Wednesday morning, magazines and newspapers began to roll out their covers and front-page spreads with their takes on the news.

“Donald Trump claims historic comeback win,” read the cover of the Independent.

It was one of the first to roll out just after 5:30 a.m. ET. As more outlets pivoted coverage from Tuesday night’s ongoing battle in the polls to the news of the former president’s victory, publications shared their own headlines on social media.

“34 Felony Counts, 1 Conviction, 2 Cases Pending, 2 Impeachments, 6 Bankruptcies, 4 More Years,” read the cover of Vanity Fair introducing Trump as “The 47th American President.”

Time magazine’s headline stated “President-elect Donald Trump,” with a photo of him from his election night watch party in West Palm Beach, Fla. The cover story is titled “How Trump Won.”

Others have continued to focus on the story of “The Comeback,” as Newsweek has titled its Nov. 6 cover story. The New York Post also called Trump’s victory a “comeback for the ages,” with the headline “He’s Don It Again!” In a blurb, the New York tabloid called it a “runaway election” and noted that Trump is “the second man in American history to win the White House in nonconsecutive terms,” after Grover Cleveland.

New York Magazine revealed its take with a cover that read, "Americans Wanted Change and That Meant Trump," featuring a photo of Trump with his wife, Melania Trump, and son Barron.

We'll be updating this post as more covers are released.
