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.
EXCLUSIVE: Concourse Media has acquired worldwide sales rights to In the Eye of the Storm, a six-part documentary series about lightning rod economist, whistleblower and politician Yanis Varoufakis, who famously resigned from his post as Greece’s minister of finance in 2015.

His memoir, Adults In The Room, was named by The Guardian as one of the top 100 most important books of the 21st Century. Throughout the series, Varoufakis reflects on the challenges faced by the European Union, the rise of Donald Trump, the attacks on democracy, the spectre of fascism, the crisis of capitalism, and the danger of climate challenge.
