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.
J.D. Vance, formally accepting the Republican nomination for vice president tonight, gave a speech that aimed over key swing states of Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, as he shared heartwarming and sometimes amusing biographical details of his life.
But in his first address on the national stage, he was surprisingly low key, less fiery in delivery than much of his social media posts would suggest.
It was the type of speech that Donald Trump, who was watching from the VIP box, might have even labeled “low energy,” at least compared to the speech delivered earlier in the hour by his son, Donald Trump Jr. “To the people of Middletown, Ohio and all of the forgotten communities in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Ohio and every corner of our nation, I promise you this: I will be a vice president who never forgets where he came from,” Vance said.
Per CBS News, Vance mentioned Michigan five times, Pennsylvania five times and Wisconsin three times. All three are President Joe Biden’s main path to reelection.
