Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current president of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality. Trump was born and raised in the New York City borough of Queens, and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School. He took charge of his family's real-estate business in 1971, renamed it The Trump Organization, and expanded its operations from Queens and Brooklyn into Manhattan.
The company built or renovated skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. Trump later started various side ventures, mostly by licensing his name. He owned the Miss Universe and Miss USA beauty pageants from 1996 to 2015, and produced and hosted The Apprentice, a reality television show, from 2003 to 2015. Forbes estimates his net worth to be $3.1 billion.

Today’s piece by the sharp-elbowed exec, who in 2006 decried a drunken anti-Semitic rant by future WME client Mel Gibson, follows a Financial Times op-end that Emanuel wrote back in October pushing agencies, business and sponsors to cut ties with Kanye West after the man now legally known as Ye went on a vile antisemitic social media tirade. “Those who continue to do business with West are giving his misguided hate an audience,” said Emanual in the FT piece.” There should be no tolerance anywhere for West’s anti-Semitism.” Of course, that was before former CAA client West went on Alex Jones’ InfoWars to praise Adolf Hitler and Nazis at the beginning of this month.
West soon afterwards posted a tweet an image of a swastika inside a Star of David on the Elon Musk-owned Twitter – – a move that caused even the GOP to delete
