Wikipedia Information

Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is an American politician, media personality, and businessman who served as the 45th president of the United States from 2017 to 2021. In November 2024, he was re-elected to a second, non-consecutive term as president, and is the president-elect. Trump graduated with a bachelor's degree in economics from the University of Pennsylvania in 1968. After becoming president of the family real estate business in 1971, Trump renamed it the Trump Organization and reoriented the company toward building and renovating skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. After a series of business failures in the late 1990s, he launched side ventures, mostly licensing the Trump name. From 2004 to 2015, he produced and hosted the reality television series The Apprentice. Trump won the 2016 presidential election as the Republican Party nominee, defeating the Democratic Party candidate, Hillary Clinton, while losing the popular vote, and became the first U.S. president without prior military or government service. The Mueller investigation later determined that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help Trump. His campaign positions were described as populist, protectionist, and nationalist. His election and policies sparked numerous protests and led to the creation of Trumpism: a political movement. Trump promoted conspiracy theories and made many false and misleading statements during his campaigns and presidency, to a degree unprecedented in American politics. Many of his comments and actions have been characterized as racially charged, racist, and misogynistic. In his first term, Trump ordered a travel ban on citizens from several Muslim-majority countries, funded an expansion of the Mexico–United States border wall (often called the Trump wall), and implemented a family separation policy. He rolled back more than 100 environmental policies and regulations and signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which cut taxes and eliminated the individual mandate penalty of the Affordable Care Act. He appointed Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court. He reacted slowly to the COVID-19 pandemic, ignored or contradicted recommendations from health officials, used political pressure to interfere with testing efforts, and spread unverified information about unproven treatments. Trump initiated a trade war with China and withdrew the U.S. from the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership trade agreement, the Paris Agreement on climate change, and the Iran nuclear deal. He met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un three times, but made no progress on denuclearization. After his first term, scholars and historians ranked Trump one of the worst presidents in American history. Trump lost the 2020 presidential election to Democrat Joe Biden but refused to concede, falsely claiming widespread electoral fraud and attempting to overturn the results. On January 6, 2021, Trump urged his supporters to march to the U.S. Capitol, which many of them attacked. He is the only U.S. president to have been impeached twice: his first impeachment in 2019 for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress after he pressured Ukraine to investigate Biden, and his second impeachment in 2021 for incitement of insurrection; the Senate acquitted him in both cases. In 2024, he was prosecuted in New York wherein the jury found him guilty of falsifying business records related to his hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels, making him the first U.S. president to be convicted of a felony. Trump faced more felony indictments related to his alleged mishandling of classified documents and interference in the 2020 election, and he was found liable in trials for the sexual abuse and defamation of E. Jean Carroll, and the financial fraud by the Trump Organization. After leaving office, he continued to dominate the Republican Party. In the 2024 presidential election, Trump defeated the Democratic candidate, incumbent vice president Kamala Harris. Winning the popular and electoral college votes, he became the second U.S. president elected to serve non-consecutive terms.
