Donald Trump went from being a businessman, real estate tycoon and a reality TV star to becoming the country's first former US President to be declared a convicted felon. And after surviving two assassination bids during his 2024 campaign, the 78-year old remains unstoppable with American voters giving him a second term.
In the process, he shattered the dream of the Democratic Party, as well as that of millions of Kamala Harris supporters, to finally have the first woman President in the White House. He is now the oldest person in US history to be elected president. Born into wealth in Queens, New York, Donald Trump learned the real estate business from his father, who built his fortune through government-funded housing projects.
From a young age, Trump showed aggressive tendencies and a fierce competitive nature, which led his father to send him to military school at the age of 13.
