Donald Trump

Donald J. Trump is a businessman and media personality who served as the 45th President of the United States from 2017 to 2021. Trump’s second and current tenure as the president of the United States began in January 2025 after he won the 2024 election.

Trump married Ivana Trump in 1977, and the couple had three children together: Donald Jr., Ivanka and Eric. The couple divorced after his affair with Marla Maples, whom he married the following year. He and Maples had one child, Tiffany Trump, before divorcing in 1999.

Donald hosted NBC’s The Apprentice — a reality competition where he developed his infamous catchphrase, “You’re fired!” — for 14 seasons from 2004 to 2015.

In 2005, Donald married model Melania Trump. They welcomed a son named Barron Trump the following year.

Donald joined the 2016 U.S. presidential election season, securing the Republican nomination and campaigning against Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. He adopted the slogan “Make America Great Again.” Despite Clinton’s popular vote victory, Donald won the presidency with 304 electoral college votes.

He was impeached twice during his one term in office, first in 2019 on charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. At the time, he was not forced to leave office after being acquitted by the Senate.

His second impeachment came after he lost his bid for reelection in 2020, claiming voter fraud was the reason President Joe Biden won despite having no evidence. His supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol building on January 6, 2021, in an attempt to prevent Congress from formalizing Biden’s victory. Trump was impeached for incitement of insurrection later that month but was not convicted.

In November 2022, Trump announced his plan to run for president as the Republican nominee in 2024 despite his lengthy list of indictments on both federal and state charges. He won the November 2024 election.
