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.
Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) has a succinct take on what’s wrong with American politics: “We’re electing idiots.” Cheney, whose criticism of former President Donald Trump likely cost her her congressional seat last year, was interviewed at an event at the 92nd Street Y in New York on Monday by David Rubenstein, co-founder and co-chairman of the Carlyle Group.
He asked Cheney whether she would consider an independent White House bid. She answered, “What we’ve done in our politics is create a situation where we’re electing idiots, and so I don’t look at it through the lens of, is this what I should do or what I shouldn’t do.
I look at it through the lens of, ‘How do we elect serious people?’ And I think electing serious people can’t be partisan.” She went on to blame the problem in part on the closed primary process.
Cheney is now a professor at the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics. NBC News’s Lester Holt say down with her at the Aspen Ideas Festival for an interview to air on Tuesday.
