The latest to join the race for the 2016 Presidency is reality TV host and business mogul, Donald Trump.
After talking about running multiple times since 1987, Trump has officially joined his esteemed Republican rivals.
But besides his unconventional hairstyle and demanding to see Obama’s birth certificate in 2011, what do we really know about the 69-year-old New Yorker?
Who exactly is Donald Trump?
Well, Trump is first and foremost a controversially successful business magnate and investor.
His start came as a result of his father, Fred Trump, who had already amassed a real estate fortune before his death.
Donald Trump has controlled his father’s company since the 1970s.
He has primarily invested in hotel and casino real estate, and filed for business bankruptcy four times.
He is also very well known for naming business holdings after himself, including buildings, video games, buffets, magazines, clothing lines, and many others.
Trump also owns a large number of golf courses and beauty pageants.
