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.
Elon Musk has pledged to reverse Donald Trump's Twitter ban when he takes over the social media site. Musk, the world's richest man, is in the process of completing a takeover of Twitter for an eye-watering $44billion (£36bn).
Former US President Trump saw his account taken down following the riot led by his supporters at the Capitol in January 2021.
Twitter said they did so, having assessed his tweets, "due to the risk of further incitement of violence". In one of those tweets Trump described the rioters as "patriots" after they stormed the Capitol building in an attempt to stop Joe Biden being confirmed as President.
Speaking at a Future of the Car event in London this week, Musk slammed the decision as morally wrong. The Tesla CEO said: "I would reverse the permanent ban but I don't own Twitter yet so this is not a thing that will definitely happen."I think it was a morally bad decision, to be clear, and foolish in the extreme."I do think it was not correct to ban Donald Trump.
