About the author


Donald J. Trump is an American businessman, television personality, and political figure best known for his work in real estate and his tenure as the 45th President of the United States. Born in 1946 in Queens, New York, he was influenced early on by his father, Fred Trump, a successful property developer. After graduating from the Wharton School of Finance at the University of Pennsylvania, Trump joined his father’s company and later renamed it The Trump Organization, expanding its focus from residential projects in Brooklyn and Queens to large-scale developments in Manhattan.

Throughout his career, Trump built a brand synonymous with luxury, power, and ambition. His notable projects include Trump Tower, the Grand Hyatt New York, and several high-profile resorts and golf courses around the world. Beyond real estate, he became a global celebrity as the host of the hit TV show The Apprentice, famous for his catchphrase, “You’re fired.”

In 2016, Trump transitioned from business to politics, winning the U.S. presidency as a Republican candidate. His leadership style, communication, and policies sparked both strong support and intense controversy, making him one of the most polarizing figures in modern history.

Despite his critics, Trump remains a defining example of confidence, branding, and perseverance — traits that continue to shape his legacy in business and beyond.
