As of May 2025, the current President of the United States is Donald Trump, who is a member of the Republican Party. He won the 2024 presidential election and began his second non-consecutive term in January 2025
. Prior to this, Joe Biden of the Democratic Party was the incumbent president, but he withdrew from the 2024 race after a poor debate performance
. Trump's administration is aligned with conservative and right-wing policies, and the Republican Party also holds majorities in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, giving the party significant influence over legislative and executive actions
. This political shift is associated with initiatives like Project 2025, a conservative policy blueprint developed by the Heritage Foundation, which aims to reshape federal government operations under a Republican presidency
