AMERICA'S VOICE (OF REASON?)

AMERICA'S VOICE (OF REASON?)

TRUMP

WHO IS HE REALLY?

He was raised by a wealthy landowner.

June 14, 1946 (age 73 years)

Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality.

Trump became involved in large, profitable building projects in Manhattan. In 1980, he opened the Grand Hyatt New York, which made him the city's best-known developer.

Fred Trump found success with the construction of single-family homes in the Queens and Brooklyn, eventually stamping his name on the 4,600-family Trump Village in Coney Island.

Donald inherited an eye for details along with business sensibilities, and upon graduating from UPenn's Wharton School in 1968 went to work for his old man.

In 2004, Trump began starring in the hit NBC reality series The Apprentice. Trump turned his attention to politics, and in 2015 he announced his candidacy for president of the United States on the Republican ticket.
