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.
John Oliver likened the praise for the vice presidential debate‘s “civility” to “a ransom note” with “lovely” cursive on tonight’s episode of Last Week Tonight.
In a segment unpacking the debate held Oct. 1, in which GOP VP pick JD Vance skirted fact-checking and Democratic VP pick Tim Walz gave a less-than-solid performance (since-spoofed by Saturday Night Live), the comedic host stated that “etiquette is kind of beside the point” when the stakes include immigrant and women’s rights. “It’s like reading a ransom note and going, ‘This cursive is just so lovely.
Look at the capital ‘Y’ in ‘You have 24 hours before he dies.’ There are still some people who were raised right,'” he quipped.
Oliver then zeroed in on Vance’s actual political affiliations, including his association with far-right Christian evangelist leader Lance Wallnau, who once said that presidential nominee Kamala Harris had the “occult spirit” moving through her. “First, Kamala Harris isn’t the one who’s been relentlessly promoting witchcraft,” Oliver said. “You’re thinking of Universal’s marketing department [for Wicked].” Later on in the show, the political host honed in on the moment in the VP debate when Vance failed to answer Walz’s pointed question on whether he believed former president Donald Trump lost the election in 2020. “Tim, I’m focused on the future,” Vance replied, to which Walz stated, “That is a damning non-answer.” Oliver agreed, calling it “one of the most generic store-brand f—boy deflections there is.” “It’s no wonder Tim Walz broke the fourth wall there like he was in Abbott Elementary because ‘I’m focused on the future’ is what you say when you want to change the subject,” he joked. “If not, you just answer the question.
