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.
UPDATE, 9/24/20, 11:41am ET: Mary Trump has filed a lawsuit in Manhattan against Donald Trump, the late Robert Trump, and Maryanne Trump Barry, accusing her uncles and aunt of committing fraud and evil conspiracy.
The first sentence of the lawsuit, obtained by The New York Times, reads, “fraud was not just the family business — it was a way of life.” Mary writes that beginning in the 1980s, her family “exploited” their real estate empire to “enrich themselves,” and that she was one of their victims, beginning at age 16 when her father, Fred Trump Jr. died.
Mary, now 55, claims that Donald, Robert, and Maryanne conspired to “siphon money away” from her when she inherited part of her father’s stake in the company.
