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.

deadline.comKamala Harris said that Donald Trump’s remarks before the National Association of Black Journalists on Wednesday were the “same old show,” calling him out for being divisive and disrespectful as he answered questions from three moderators.

At the NABJ appearance, Trump sparred with one of the moderators, ABC News’ Rachel Scott, who at the outset confronted him with past statements that he has made about people of color, including Barack Obama and Nikki Haley.
