and entrepreneurial excellence, especially in real estate, sports, and entertainment. Mr. Trump built on his success in
private life when he entered into politics and public service. He remarkably won the Presidency in his first ever run for any political office.
A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Finance, Mr. Trump followed in
his father’s footsteps into the world of real estate development, making his mark New York City.
There, the Trump name soon became synonymous with the most prestigious of addresses in Manhattan and, subsequently, throughout the world.
Mr. Trump is also an accomplished author. He has written more than fourteen bestsellers. His first book, The Art of the Deal, is considered a business classic.
Mr. Trump announced his candidacy for the Presidency on June 16, 2015. He then accepted the
Republican nomination for President of the United States in July of 2016, having defeated seventeen other contenders during the Republican primaries.
On November 8, 2016, Mr. Trump was elected President in the largest Electoral College landslide for a Republican in 28 years.
Mr. Trump won more than 2,600 counties nationwide, the most since President Ronald Reagan in 1984. And he received
the votes of more than 62 million Americans, the most ever for a Republican candidate. These voters, in delivering a truly
national victory and historic moment, rallied behind Mr. Trump’s commitment to rebuilding our country and disrupting the political status quo that had failed to deliver results.
Mr. Trump won, in part, because he campaigned in places Republicans have had difficulty winning?Flint, Michigan, charter
schools in inner-city Cleveland, and Hispanic churches in Florida. He went there because he wanted to bring his message of economic empowerment to all Americans. Millions of new Republicans trusted Mr. Trump with their vote because of
his commitment to delivering prosperity through a reformed tax code, an improved regulatory environment, and better trade deals. President Trump’s victory has brought Americans of all backgrounds together, and he is committed to delivering
results for the Nation every day he serves in office.
President Trump has been married to his wife, Melania, for twelve years, and they are parents to their son, Barron. Mr. Trump also has four adult children, Don Jr., Ivanka, Eric, and Tiffany, as well as nine grandchildren.
