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.
Top British journalist Emily Maitlis has been told she “needs her head examined” by a Donald Trump ally who refused to back down on her repeated claims of election interference.
Maitlis was in the U.S. for her News Agent podcast when she sat down with former news anchor and Arizona state senate candidate Kari Lake, who grew visibly angrier during the four-minute interview yesterday that can be watched in full below.
Responding to a question from Maitlis on whether her actions had “played a part in inflaming the political rhetoric in this country” in the wake of the Trump assassination attempt, Lake called Maitlis a “sad case of a human being.” “You are part of the fake news agenda and you are lying,” said Lake. “You don’t know a damn thing about Arizona, you don’t know a damn thing about our election and you sit there with a smirk on your face in England, in the UK, in a country that has been destroyed.” Lake didn’t elaborate on the way in which the UK has been “destroyed.” Responding to a subsequent question on whether she will concede defeat in November’s election if Trump loses, Lake twice told Maitlis: “You need your head examined.” Lake is being sued for claims of election interference by Stephen Richer, the top election official in Maricopa County, who has previously said his life has been turned “upside down” by her claims.
But Lake doubled down yesterday, saying she still believes the election was “run fraudulently” while refusing to elaborate due to being “in the middle of a lawsuit.” In March, her legal team conceded she won’t try to prove that her claims were true or that she had a reasonable basis to believe they were, but instead asked a Maricopa county judge to set a hearing for a “default judgment.”
