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.
Well that backfired. After Donald Trump called a Black Lives Matter mural planned for outside the Trump Tower a “symbol of hate,” New York City pressed forward with artwork across all five boroughs.
The most recent was massive letters on the street outside the Federal Courthouse in lower Manhattan, spelling out the words Black Lives Matter.
This is exactly what’s intended for outside Trump’s former home. NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio announced the citywide project on June 19, or Juneteenth, several weeks after protests began across the country following the death of George Floyd.
When all is done, there will be Black Lives Matter murals in six locations across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island.
