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.
Joe Biden announcing today that he is dropping out of the 2024 presidential race has given Damon Lindelof “genuine excitement for the election.” The first significant Hollywood donor to go public with a call for supporters to withhold their cash after Biden’s disastrous June 27 debate performance and to have the 81-year-old incumbent end his reelection bid, the Lost showrunner Sunday took to social media to now praise POTUS.
Declaring “the DEMBARGO is lifted,” Lindelof also said he “will fully support whoever can catalyze passion and engagement across our country… our ENTIRE country, no caveats.” As you can see, Emmy winner Lindelof didn’t offer Vice President Kamala Harris an endorsement, as Biden did, but complimented the Veep for her own reaction to Biden’s announcement: A post shared by Damon (@damonlindelof) In his exclusive July 3 guest column for Deadline, Lindelof was very blunt about what had to be done for Biden to understand how the political landscape had dramatically shifted after his rambling and often disjointed debate appearance on CNN last month against Donald Trump. “The checks give us access to power and it is power that is needed to persuade our pitcher to come out of the game, because dammit, even four runs down with the bases loaded and no outs, he still feels like he’s got good stuff,” the Watchmen chief said of donors and Biden in a sports analogy. “Yet we’re just here in the stands.
We can shout as much as we want, but the pitcher will ignore us despite our checks,” Lindelof continued, noting not just the ticket at the top, but those down ballot. “Fortunately, he’s not the only one we’re writing them to.” RELATED: Robert De Niro Reacts To Joe Biden Presidential Race Decision Taking the first
