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.
It probably won’t be Lincoln vs Douglas, but another debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump could be in the cards. As the incumbent has just started to give a much anticipated and delayed speech in Wisconsin right now in efforts to contain the ongoing blast radius from 81-year-old Biden’s debate debacle of last week, the 78-year-old ex-president and presumptive GOP nominee has thrown down the “no holds barred” gauntlet anew.
In his opening remarks, Biden mocked Trump’s own cognitive abilities with the 44th president’s own claim to be “a stable genius.” The president then launched into his standard stump speech. “Can’t say it was my best performance,” the president noted of the June 27 debate. “I’m staying in the race,” Biden said, as he has several times in the past few days. “I’m not letting one 90-minute debate wipe out three years of hard work,” he added, trying to turn his age as the oldest POTUS ever to his advantage in front of the cheering crowd.

What a great evening it would be, just the two of us, one on one, in a good, old fashioned Debate, the way they used to be. ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE!!!” CNN’s Jake Tapper and Dana Bash moderated the June 27 debate.
