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.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus Compares Her ‘Veep’ Character To Trump: “Not A Kamala Harris Type”
deadline.comJulia Louis-Dreyfus is willing to admit her Veep character bears some similarities to a real-life presidential nominee. Amid the show’s election year resurgence, the Golden Globe winner reasoned that her morally bankrupt politician character Selina Meyer is more like Donald Trump than his opponent Kamala Harris. “In Veep, I play a very unhappy vice president, and at a certain point in a run of the show, I have the opportunity to run for president,” she explained on MSNBC. “Now, I do want to say one thing about the character I play on Veep.
I do want to say I play a very, shall we say, almost narcissistic, sociopathic, mega-maniacal type of person,” added Louis-Dreyfus. “I am not a Kamala Harris type.
I am possibly much more like someone from the other party whose name I shall not even utter.” She starred as Vice President (and eventually President) Meyer in the satirical HBO series created by Armando Iannucci, which ran for seven seasons from 2012 to 2019.
The actress won nine Emmy Awards as star and producer of the show. Louis-Dreyfus’ interview came ahead of her Veep reunion on Sunday for a table read benefitting the Democratic Party of Wisconsin as Harris campaigns in the battleground state.
