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.
A federal judge in New York sounded skeptical on Friday that Donald Trump was not legally liable for using Eddy Grant‘s 1983 hit song, “Electric Avenue,” in a 2020 campaign video without the artist’s permission.
The judge, John G. Koeltl, did not decide whether Trump violated Grant’s copyright when he posted an animated clip on Twitter mocking his opponent, Joe Biden, to the strains of “Electric Avenue.” But in a 90-minute court hearing in downtown Manhattan, Koeltl grilled Trump’s lawyer, Jesse R.
Binnall, at length and interrupted often as Binnall tried to make his case. Grant’s lawyer, Robert W. Clarida, got a shorter and lighter interrogation by comparison.
But the judge also questioned whether all of Grant’s claims against the former president and current Republican nominee are valid.
