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.

You’ll be a wimp.”And in a separate testimony video, Ivanka Trump described the call in her own words: “It was a different tone than I’d heard him take with the Vice President before.”Pence attorney Greg Jacob, who gave lengthy live testimony on Thursday, said he observed Pence in the moments after that phone call. “He was steely, determined, grim,” Jacob said.Pence completed the counting of the votes that same evening, and the vote was certified.
The Jan. 6 committee hearing on Thursday focused on Trump’s campaign to pressure Pence to take action to stop the vote certification..
