Donald John Trump, the 45th former president of the United States, is one of the most controversial and attention-grabbing political figures in modern history. Born in 1946 in New York, he started his career as a real estate entrepreneur before stepping into politics and profoundly changing the landscape of American politics from 2016 to the present.
Before becoming president, Trump was famous for his role as the host of the reality TV show 'The Apprentice' and as a bold, outspoken real estate billionaire. He entered the 2016 presidential race as the Republican candidate and quickly garnered strong support from a large segment of voters thanks to the slogan 'Make America Great Again' and his message against traditional political elites.
Winning against Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election marked a major turning point. During his presidency (2017–2021), he implemented many controversial policies: from tax cuts, tightening immigration, withdrawing from international agreements (such as the Paris Agreement on climate change), to appointing three conservative justices to the Supreme Court. These decisions profoundly changed the American legal and social system in the long term.
However, Trump's term also came with many criticisms. His handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, his confrontations with the media, and his refusal to acknowledge the results of the 2020 election have led to a deep division in America. The attack on the Capitol on January 6, 2021, by Trump supporters is viewed as one of the most serious events in modern American democratic history.
Despite losing to Joe Biden in the 2020 election, Trump still maintains a huge influence within the Republican Party. In 2024, he officially re-runs for office and is currently the leading candidate in internal party polls. Although facing numerous legal troubles, including criminal charges, Trump still attracts a large number of loyal supporters who view him as an anti-establishment icon.$BNB
Donald Trump is not just a politician – he embodies a resistance political movement that questions the role of the media, elites, and the old global order. With his ability to mobilize the masses, he remains a significant factor in the upcoming U.S. elections and the future of American politics.$BTC
