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.

Walz ended his speech with rapturous applause and exited the DNC stage in Chicago’s United Center by walking out to “Rockin’ in the Free World,” a cut from Young’s 1989 album, “Freedom.” According to a report from CNN, Young personally approved the use of the song for the Harris campaign since it’s a favorite of Walz’s.
The song’s anthemic message has been used as a soundtrack for previous political parties in the past — most famously, in 2015 for Donald Trump‘s campaign trail for the 2016 election.
However, Young did not approve of the Trump campaign utilizing the song, as he clearly outlined in a statement at the time. He went on to sue Trump for unauthorized use in 2020, citing not just “Rockin’ in the Free World” but also a more obscure song from 2003’s “Greendale” album, “Devil’s Sidewalk,” that was part of the playlist at a Trump rally. “Imagine what it feels like to hear ‘Rockin’ in the Free World’ after this President speaks, like it is his theme song.
