Donald John Trump is a prominent American businessman, television personality, and politician who served as the 45th President of the United States from 2017 to 2021 and is currently the 47th President as of 2024. Born into a wealthy real estate family in Queens, New York, Trump expanded his father's business into a global brand, becoming a household name through ventures like Trump Tower and the reality TV show The Apprentice. His flamboyant personality and unorthodox communication style, particularly on social media, have made him one of the most polarizing figures in modern American politics.

Trump's presidency was marked by significant policy shifts, including tax reforms, deregulation, and a hardline stance on immigration. He was impeached twice by the House of Representatives—first in 2019 for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, and again in 2021 for incitement of insurrection following the Capitol riot—though acquitted by the Senate both times. Despite controversies, he maintains a strong base of support within the Republican Party and has reshaped its ideological direction toward 'America First' nationalism.

Anecdotes about Trump abound, from his love of fast food (reportedly served on fine china in the White House) to his habit of coining nicknames for political rivals ('Sleepy Joe' Biden, 'Crooked Hillary' Clinton). His 2016 election victory, defying most polls, is often cited as a watershed moment in populist politics.
