Executive summary: 45th President of the United States Donald Trump's father started The Trump Organization, made his fortune by building middle-class apartment houses in Brooklyn and Queens, and made his son president of the family business by his mid-20s. As Trump tells the story, he knew he would need access to wealthy clients to swing large deals, so he wangled membership in an "exclusive" New York social club, where he made contacts, made deals, and kept coming out ahead. As his fortune grew, Trump built the Grand Hyatt (the biggest hotel constructed in New York since the 1950s), and the Taj Mahal casino, and Trump Tower, and Trump Plaza, etc.
Trump's fame outside financial circles started with the United States Football League (USFL), a bargain-basement alternative to the NFL that started in 1983. Trump bought the New Jersey Generals, a USFL team, after the 1983 season, and engineered the league's switch from a spring schedule to the fall in 1985, when they would go head-to-head against the NFL. But the USFL folded before ever playing a fall game. They sued the NFL for unfair competition, and won $3.76 (a dollar in damages, trebled as an anti-trust penalty, with 76� interest).
After accumulating his billions, Trump saw most of it vanish in the early 1990s under massive loan payments. He regained his fortune within several years, which has of course made him even more famous. And through it all, nobody has been more impressed by Donald Trump than Donald Trump. He has slept with supermodels and married trophies, outright purchased the Miss Universe contest, and hosted The Apprentice, a reality show where the grand prize is a job working for Donald Trump.
He has frequently taken extreme political positions, including adamant skepticism about Barack Obama's citizenship, the science of climate change, and the safety of childhood vaccines. His cephalofollicular adornment remains the butt of frequent jokes, but Trump insists his hair is genuine despite the uncanny valley your eyes find themselves in. It is almost certainly a "microcylinder treatment", the likes of which can run to $60,000. One is unlikely to make a deal on a handshake with The Donald; he considers handshakes "barbaric." In 2015 Trump announced his candidacy for the Republican Party's 2016 Presidential nomination, and to the great distress of many party regulars, obtained the majority of delegate votes and, after a rancorous campaign, won the election.
