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.

nme.comDonald Trump is said to be looking for rappers to help him get more Black voters ahead of this year’s presidential election.Over the weekend, a news report by The Boston Herald suggested that Trump wants to put on a campaign fundraising event at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
The 45th president wants rappers and athletes in attendance to encourage more Black and Latin voters to vote for him and the Republican party this November.
According to The Source, Trump is also looking to appear in Chicago, Detroit, and Atlanta.“To be quite honest, the Republican Party does not have a cohesive engagement plan for Black communities,” Darrell Scott told The Boston Herald, a Black pastor and longtime Trump ally who co-founded the National Diversity Coalition for Trump in 2016. “What it has are conservatives in communities of colour who have taken it upon themselves to head our own initiatives.”Trump is campaigning to serve a second non-consecutive term as president despite currently being on trial for four criminal state charges, including conspiracy to defraud the US and conspiracy against the rights of citizens.
The charges pertain to the business titan allegedly paying adult film star Stormy Daniels hush money before the 2016 US federal election.His first campaign was controversial, especially regarding his “Make America Great Again” slogan and its disdain for so-called “identity politics”.
