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.

However, she reflected that the reason may be because they don't want to "meddle", saying: "I suppose it is still controversial for a member of the Royal Family, even a nonworking and estranged one, to meddle in politics.
Also American people might consider it extremely presumptuous of a British Prince to try to influence a US election.” Meghan and Harry released a statement last week urging people to vote in the election, without backing either candidate.The statement said: "Voting is not just a right; it’s a fundamental way to influence the fate of our communities.
