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.

On the last night of the RNC and just hours before Trump takes the stage in his first remarks since the July 13 assassination attempt, Carlson talked to the audience of “divine intervention” for the former president surviving the shooting at a rally in Butler, PA. “God is among us right now, I think that’s enough,” Carlson said leaving the stage to cheers. “That was Tucker Carlson, you may remember him from the eight o’clock hour here,” quipped Carlson’s FNC time slot replacement Jesse Walters when the Tucker Carlson Network founder’s less than 15-minute speech was over.
