[4]
Friedrich died from influenza dur-ing the 1918 pandemic.
[5]
Trump’s father Fred was born in 1905 in the Bronx, and
started working with his mother in real estate when hewas 15, shortly after his father’s death. Their company,Elizabeth Trump and Son, was primarily active in theNewYorkboroughsofQueensandBrooklyn. Fredeven-
tually built and sold thousands of houses, barracks andapartments.
[5][6]
The company would later become TheTrump Organization when Donald Trump took over in1971.

In their 2017 annual billionaires’ ranking,
Forbes
esti-mated Trump’s net worth at $3.5 billion (544th in theworld, 201st in the U.S.)
[1]
making him one of the richestpoliticians in American history. These estimates havefluctuated from year to year, and also depending uponwho is doing the estimations;
Bloomberg News
peggedhis wealth at $3 billion in 2016,
[86]
whereas
Forbes
said$4.5 billion that same year (324th in the world, 113thin the U.S.).
[87]
The discrepancies among these estimatesand with Trump’s own estimates stem from the uncer-tain value of appraised property and of his personalbrand.
[86][88]
1.7 Tax returns
Further information: Donald Trump presidential cam-paign, 2016 § Refusal to release tax returnsAs required of all presidential candidates by FEC regu-lations, Trump published a 92-page financial disclosureform that listed all his assets, liabilities, income sourcesand hundreds of business positions,
[74]
but he declined toreleasehistaxreturns,
[89]
contrarytousualpracticebyev-ery presidential candidate since Gerald Ford in 1976.
[90]
Trump’s refusal led to speculation that he was hidingsomething,
[91]
although there is no law that requires pres-idential candidates to release their returns.
[92]
Trump explained that his tax returns are being auditedand his lawyers advise against releasing them.
[93][94]
Nolaw prohibits release of tax returns during an audit. Taxattorneys differ about whether such a release is wise legalstrategy.
[95]
Trump has told the news media that his taxrate was “none of your business”, but added, “I fight veryhard to pay as little tax as possible.”
[96][97][98]
On October 1, 2016, three pages of Trump’s 1995 tax re-turn were leaked to a New York Times reporter, who saidthedocumentswerereceivedinherTimesmailbox. Eachof the three pages is one page from Trump’s state filingsin Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey. They showthat using allowed deductions for losses, Trump claimeda loss of $916 million that year. During the second pres-idential debate, Trump acknowledged using the deduc-tion, but declined to provide details such as the specificyears it was applied.
[99]
When asked if he used the taxcode to avoid paying taxes, he said, “Of course I did. Ofcourse I did.” He then went on to say he paid “hundredsof millions of dollars in taxes”, calling it a “simple” thing.“Ipaytax, andIpayfederaltax, too”, hesaid.
[100][101][102]
On March 14, 2017 the first two pages of Trump’s 2005federal income tax returns were leaked to MSNBC'sRachelMaddowshow. ThetwopagesshowedthatTrumppaid $38 million in federal taxes and had a gross adjustedincome of $150 million.
[103][104]
The White House con-firmedtheauthenticityofthe2005documentsandstated:“Despite this substantial income figure and tax paid, it istotally illegal to steal and publish tax returns.”
[103][104]
2 Real estate business
Main article: Business career of Donald Trump § RealestateTrump started his career at his father’s real estate de-velopment company, Elizabeth Trump and Son, whichfocused on middle-class rental housing in the New YorkCity boroughs outside Manhattan, but also had businesselsewhere.
[105]
For example, during his undergraduatestudy, Trump joined his father Fred in successfully re-vitalizing the foreclosed Swifton Village apartment com-plex in Cincinnati, Ohio, thereby boosting the occupancyrate from 66% to 100%.
[106][107]
Trump was promoted to president of the company in1971 (while his father became chairman of the board),and renamed it The Trump Organization.
[7][108]
In 1973,he and his father drew wider attention when the Justice
Department contended that the organization systemati-cally discriminated against African Americans wishing torent apartments, rather than merely screening out peoplebased on low income, as the Trumps stated. Under anagreement reached in 1975, the Trumps made no admis-sion of wrongdoing, and made the Urban League an in-termediary for qualified minority applicants.

[111]
2.1 Manhattan developments
In 1978, Trump consummated his first major real estatedealinManhattan, purchasingahalf-shareinthedecrepitCommodore Hotel, largely funded by a $70 million con-struction loan jointly guaranteed by Fred Trump and theHyatt hotel chain. Designed by architect Der Scutt, the
project was able to proceed by leveraging competing in-terests and by taking advantage of tax breaks.
[112]
Afterremodeling, the hotel reopened as the Grand Hyatt Hotel,located next to Grand Central Terminal.
[113][114]
Also in 1978, Trump finished negotiations to de-velop Trump Tower, a 58-story, 202-meter (663-foot)skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, which
The New York Times
attributed to his “persistence” and “skills as anegotiator”.
[115]
To make way for the new building, acrew of undocumented Polish workers demolished an oldBonwit Teller store including art deco features that had
initially been marked for preservation.
[116]
The buildingwas completed in 1983, and houses both the primarypenthouse condominium residence of Trump and theheadquartersofTheTrumpOrganization.
[117][118]
Archi-tectural critic Paul Goldberger said in 1983 that he wassurprised to find the tower’s atrium was “the most pleas-
Central Park 's Wollman Rink , which was renovated by Trump
ant interior public space to be completed in New York insome years”.
[119][120]
Trump Tower was the setting of theNBC television show
The Apprentice
, and includes a fullyfunctional television studio set.
[121]
Repairs on the Wollman Rink (originally opened in 1949in Central Park) were started in 1980 by a general con-
tractor unconnected to Trump. Despite an expected 2

-year construction schedule, the repairs were not com-pleted by 1986. Trump took over the project, completedit in three months for $775,000 less than the initial bud-get of $1.95 million, and operated the rink for one yearwith all profits going to charity in exchange for the rink’sconcession rights.
[122]
In1988TrumpacquiredthePlazaHotelinManhattanfora record-setting $407 million, and asked his wife Ivanato manage its operation.
[123]
Trump invested $50 mil-lion to restore the building, which he called “the MonaLisa”.
[124]
AccordingtohotelexpertThomasMcConnell,the Trumps boosted it from a three-star to a four-starranking, and sold it in 1995, by which time Ivana wasno longer involved.
[125]
In 1994, Trump became involved with a building onColumbus Circle which was swaying in the wind. He be-gan a reconstruction project that stopped the swaying andgave the building a full makeover.
[126][127]
Trump there-afterownedcommercialspaceinthat44-storymixed-usetower (hotel and condominium), which he named TrumpInternational Hotel and Tower.
[128]
In 1996, Trump acquired a vacant seventy-storyskyscraper on Wall Street which had briefly been thetallest building in the world when it was completed in1930. After an extensive renovation, the high-rise wasrenamed the Trump Building at 40 Wall Street.
[129]
In 1997, he began construction on Trump Place, a multi-building development along the Hudson River, and en-countered delays the following year because a subcon-tracter had to replace defective concrete.
[130][131]
Ulti-mately, he and the other investors in that project sold

Beach, Florida in 1985 for $5 million, plus $3 millionfor the home’s furnishings. It was built in the 1920s byheiress and socialite Marjorie Merriweather Post, whoenvisioned the house as a future winter retreat for Amer-ican presidents.Trump’s initial offer of $28 million had been rejected,andhewasabletogetthepropertyatthemuchlowerpriceby purchasing separate beachfront property and threaten-ing to build a house on it that would block Mar-a-Lago’socean view. In addition to using the estate as a home,Trump also turned it into a private club open to every-one who could afford the initiation fee of $100,000 plusannual dues.
[137]
In 1986, he acquired a foreclosed, 33-story, twin-towercondominium complex in nearby West Palm Beach for$40 million, with automobile manufacturing executiveLee Iacocca investing in three of the condos.
[138]

[140]
Renamed “TrumpPlaza” soon after opening, it was then the tallest build-ing in Atlantic City.
[141]
The casino’s poor results exacer-bated disagreements between Trump and Holiday Corp.,which led to Trump paying $70 million in May 1986 tobuy out their interest in the property.
[142][143]
Trump alsoacquired a partially completed building in Atlantic CityfromtheHiltonCorporationfor$320million; whencom-pleted in 1985, that hotel and casino became Trump Cas-tle, and Trump’s wife, Ivana, managed that property until
Trump transferred her in 1988 to run the Trump PlazaHotel in New York.

The Taj fi-nally opened in April 1990, and was built at a total costof $1.1 billion, which at the time made it the most ex-pensive casino ever.

During the 1990s, Trump’s casino ventures faced com-petition from Native American gaming at the Foxwoods
casino located on an Indian reservation in Connecti-cut (where it was exempt from the state’s anti-gamblinglaws). Trump stated in 1993 that the casino own-ers did not look like real Indians to him or to otherIndians.

2.4 Legal affairs and bankruptcies
Main article: Legal affairs of Donald TrumpAs of 2016, Trump and his businesses had been involvedin more than 3,500 state and federal legal actions. Heor one of his companies was the plaintiff in 1,900 casesand the defendant in 1,450. With Trump or his companyas plaintiff, more than half the cases have been againstgamblers at his casinos who had failed to pay off theirdebts. With Trump or his company as a defendant, themost common type of case involved personal injury casesat his hotels. In cases where there was a clear resolution,Trump’s side won 451 times and lost 38.
[162][163]
Trump has never filed for personal bankruptcy, but hishotel and casino businesses have been declared bankruptsix times between 1991 and 2009 in order to re-negotiatedebt with banks and owners of stock and bonds.
[164][165]
BecausethebusinessesusedChapter11bankruptcy, theywere allowed to operate while negotiations proceeded.Trump was quoted by
Newsweek
in 2011 saying, “I doplaywiththebankruptcylaws–they'reverygoodforme”as a tool for trimming debt.
[166][167]
The six bankruptcies were the result of over-leveragedhotel and casino businesses in Atlantic City and NewYork: Trump Taj Mahal (1991), Trump Plaza Ho-
tel and Casino (1992), Plaza Hotel (1992), Trump
Castle Hotel and Casino (1992), Trump Hotels andCasino Resorts (2004), and Trump Entertainment Re-sorts (2009).
[168][169]
Trump said, “I've used the laws ofthis country to pare debt ... We'll have the company.We'll throw it into a chapter. We'll negotiate with thebanks. We'll make a fantastic deal. You know, it’s like on
The Apprentice
. It’s not personal. It’s just business.”
[152]
A 2016 analysis of Trump’s business career by
TheEconomist
concluded that his "… performance [from1985 to 2016] has been mediocre compared with thestock market and property in New York”, noting both hissuccesses and bankruptcies.
[170]
A subsequentanalysis by
The Washington Post
concluded that “Trump is a mix ofbraggadocio, business failures, and real success”, callinghis casino bankruptcies the “most infamous flop” of hisbusiness career.

Trump at a New York Mets home game in 2009
sey Generals—an American Football team that played
in the United States Football League—from oil mag-nate J. Walter Duncan. The USFL played its first threeseasons during the spring and summer, but Trump con-vinced the majority of the owners of other USFL teamsto move the USFL’s 1986 schedule to the fall. He ar-gued that the new schedule would coincide with theNational Football League and would eventually force amerger with the NFL, thereby significantly increasingtheir investment.
[198]
After the 1985 season, the Generals merged with theHouston Gamblers, but the organization experiencedcontinuous financial difficulties. The USFL was downto just seven active franchises from a high of eighteenand was soon forced to fold, despite winning an antitrustlawsuit against the NFL.
[199]
Trump remained involved with other sports after theGenerals folded, operating golf courses in severalcountries.
[199]
He also hosted several boxing matches inAtlantic City at the Trump Plaza, including Mike Tyson’s1988 fight against Michael Spinks, and at one time, acted
as a financial advisor to Tyson.
[199][200][201]
In 1989 and 1990, Trump lent his name to the Tour deTrump cycling stage race, which was an attempt to cre-ate an American equivalent of European races such asthe Tour de France or the Giro d'Italia. The inaugural
race was controversial, and Trump withdrew his sponsor-ship after the second Tour de Trump in 1990, becausehis other business ventures were experiencing financialwoes. The race continued for several more years as theTour DuPont.

In 2013, the State of New York filed a $40 million civilsuit alleging that Trump University made false statementsand defrauded consumers.
[224][226]
In addition, two class-action civil lawsuits were filed in federal court relating toTrump University; they named Trump personally as wellas his companies.
[227]
During the presidential campaign,TrumprepeatedlycriticizedJudgeGonzaloP.Curielwhooversaw those two cases, alleging bias because of hisMexican heritage.
[228][229][230]
Trump later said that hisconcerns about Curiel’s impartiality were not based uponethnicity alone, but also upon rulings in the case.

The
Low v. Trump
case was set for trial on Novem-ber 28, 2016 in San Diego.
[233]
Shortly after Trump wonthe presidency, the parties agreed to a settlement of allthree pending cases. In the settlement, Trump did notadmit to any wrongdoing but agreed to pay a total of$25million.
[234][235]
Thelitigantsagreedtothesettlementjust an hour before a hearing regarding Trump’s latest re-quest to delay the trial until after the inauguration. JasonForge, the attorney for the plaintiffs, said he “definitelydetected a change of tone and change of approach” fromthe Trump representatives after the election.

3.4 Branding and licensing
Main article: List of things named after Donald TrumpTrump has marketed his name on a large number ofbuilding projects that are owned and operated by otherpeople and companies, as well as licensing his name forvarious commercial products and services. In doing so,he achieved mixed success for himself, his partners, andinvestors in the projects.
[238]
In 2011,
Forbes
' financialexperts estimated the value of the Trump brand at $200million. Trump disputed this valuation, saying his brandwas worth about $3 billion.
[239]
Because developers pay Trump to market their proper-ties and to be the public face for their projects, somebuildings that display his name are not owned or oper-ated by him.
[240]
According to
Forbes
, this portion ofTrump’s empire, run by his children, is by far his mostvaluable, having a $562 million valuation, with 33 licens-ing projects under development including seven TrumpInternational Hotel and Tower “condo hotels”.Properties to which Trump has licensed his nameand image include two in Florida that have gone intoforeclosure.
[241]

[248][249]
From 2004to 2014, the top donors to the foundation were Vince andLinda McMahon of WWE, who donated $5 million to
the foundation after Trump appeared at WrestleMania in2007.
[246]
Linda McMahon later became Administratorof the Small Business Administration.
[250]
In 2016, investigations by
The Washington Post
uncov-ered several potential legal and ethical violations con-ducted by the charity, including alleged self-dealing andpossible tax evasion.
[251]
After beginning an investigationinto the foundation, the New York State Attorney Gen-eral's office notified the Trump Foundation that it wasallegedly in violation of New York laws regarding char-ities, and ordered it to immediately cease its fundraisingactivities in New York.
[252][253][254]
A Trump spokesmancalled the investigation a “partisan hit job”.
[252]
In re-sponsetomountingcomplaints,Trump’steamannouncedin late December 2016 that the Trump Foundation wouldbe dissolved to remove “even the appearance of any con-flict with [his] role as President.”

4 Political career
4.1 Early involvement in politics
Trump first vaguely expressed interest in running for of-fice in 1987, when he spent almost $100,000 to placefull-page advertisements in several newspapers. In hisview at that time, “America should stop paying to defendcountries that can afford to defend themselves”,
[277]
and“should present Western Europe and Japan with a bill forAmerica’s efforts to safeguard the passage of oil tankersin the Persian Gulf.”
[278]
As of December 1988, Trumpwas the tenth most admired person in America accordingto a Gallup poll.
[279][280]
Trump considered running for president in 1988, 2000,
2004, and 2012, and for Governor of New York in 2006
and 2014, but did not enter any of those races.
[281][282]
InFebruary 2009, Trump appeared on the
Late Show with
Trump’s December 1987 advertisement in
The Boston Globe
,criticizing U.S. defense policy
David Letterman
, and spoke about the automotive indus-try crisis of 2008–10. He said that “instead of asking formoney”, General Motors “should go into bankruptcy andwork that stuff out in a deal.”
[283]
Trump publicly speculated about seeking the 2012 Re-publican presidential nomination, and a
Wall Street Jour-nal
/ NBC News poll released in March 2011 foundTrump leading among potential contenders; he was onepoint ahead of former Massachusetts Governor MittRomney.
[284]
A
Newsweek
poll conducted in February2011 showed Trump within a few points of incumbentpresident Barack Obama, with many voters undecidedin the November 2012 general election for president ofthe United States.
[285]
A poll released in April 2011 byPublic Policy Polling showed Trump having a nine-pointlead in a potential contest for the Republican nomina-tion for president while he was still actively consideringa run.
[286][287]
His moves were interpreted by some me-dia as possible promotional tools for his reality show
TheApprentice
.
[288][289][290]
Trump played a leading role in “birther” conspiracy the-ories that had been circulating since President Obama’s2008 presidential campaign.
[291][292]
Beginning in March2011, Trump publicly questioned Obama’s citizenshipand eligibility to serve as President.
[293][294][295]
Al-though the Obama campaign had released a copy ofthe short-form birth certificate in 2008,
[296]
Trump de-manded to see the original “long-form” certificate.
[293]
4.2 Political affiliations
13He mentioned having sent investigators to Hawaii toresearch the question, but he did not follow up withany findings.
[293]
He also repeated a debunked allega-tion that Obama’s grandmother said she had witnessedhis birth in Kenya.
[297][298]
When the White House laterreleased Obama’s long-form birth certificate,
[299]
Trumptook credit for obtaining the document, saying “I hope itchecks out.”
[300]
His official biography mentions his pur-ported role in forcing Obama’s hand,
[301]
and he has de-fended his pursuit of the issue when prompted, later say-ing that his promotion of the conspiracy made him “verypopular”.
[302]
In2011,TrumphadcalledforObamatore-lease his student records, questioning whether his gradeswarranted entry into an Ivy League school.
[303]
Whenaskedin2015whetherhebelievedObamawasbornintheUnited States, Trump said he did not want to discuss thematter further.
[304][305]
In September 2016, Trump pub-licly acknowledged that Obama was born in the U.S., andsaid that the rumors had been started by Hillary Clintonduring her 2008 presidential campaign.
[294][306][307]
Trump speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conferencein 2011
Trump made his first speaking appearance at theConservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) inFebruary 2011. His appearance at CPAC was organizedby GOProud, an LGBT conservative organization, in
conjunction with GOProud supporter Roger Stone, whowas close with Trump. GOProud pushed for a write-in campaign for Trump at CPAC’s presidential strawpoll. The 2011 CPAC speech Trump gave is cred-ited for helping kick-start his political career within theRepublican Party.
[308][309]
Christopher R. Barron, co-founder of GOProud, would later endorse Trump’s 2016presidential campaign, and launch “LGBT for Trump”, apolitical campaign with the goal of encouraging lesbian,gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people to supportTrump.
[310]
In the 2012 Republican primaries, Trump generally hadpolled at or below 17 percent among the crowded fieldof possible candidates.
[311]
On May 16, 2011, Trump an-nounced he would not run for president in the 2012 elec-tion, while also saying he would have become the Presi-dent of the United States, had he ran.
[288]
In 2013, Trump was a featured speaker at the Con-servative Political Action Conference (CPAC).
[312]
Dur-ing the lightly attended early-morning speech, Trumpspoke out against illegal immigration, then-PresidentObama’s “unprecedented media protection”, and ad-vised against harming Medicare, Medicaid and SocialSecurity.
[313][314]
Additionally, Trump spent over $1 million in 2013 toresearch a possible run for president of the UnitedStates.
[315]
In October 2013, New York Republicans cir-culated a memo suggesting Trump should run for gov-ernor of the state in 2014 against Andrew Cuomo. Inresponse to the memo, Trump said that while New Yorkhad problems and that its taxes were too high, running forgovernor was not of great interest to him.
[316]
In January2014, Trump made statements denying climate changethat were discordant with the opinion of the scientificcommunity.
[317]
A February 2014 Quinnipiac poll hadshown Trump losing to the more popular Cuomo by 37points in a hypothetical election.
[318]
In February 2015,Trump told NBC that he was not prepared to sign on foranother season of
The Apprentice
, as he mulled his polit-ical future.
[319]
4.2 Political affiliations

Trump’s political party affiliation has changed numeroustimes over the years. Trump was a Democrat prior to1987.
[320]
In 1987, Trump registered as a Republican inManhattan.
[321]
In 1999, Trump switched to the Reform Party and rana presidential exploratory campaign for its nomination.After his run, Trump left the party in 2001, ostensiblydue to the involvement of David Duke, Pat Buchanan,
and Lenora Fulani.
[322]
From 2001 to 2008, Trump identified as a Democrat, butin 2008, he endorsed Republican John McCain for Presi-dent. In 2009, he officially changed his party registrationtoRepublican.

[324][325]
Trump has made contributions to campaigns of both Re-publican Party and Democratic Party candidates, withthe top ten recipients of his political contributions be-ing six Democrats and four Republicans.
[326]
After 2011,his campaign contributions were more favorable to Re-publicans than to Democrats.
[327]
In February 2012,Trump openly endorsed Republican Mitt Romney forPresident.
[328]
When asked in 2015 which recent pres-ident he prefers, Trump picked Democrat Bill Clintonover the Republican Bushes.
[329][330]
According to a New York state report, Trump circum-vented corporate and personal campaign donation lim-its in the 1980s—although no laws were broken—by do-nating money to candidates from 18 different businesssubsidiaries, rather than donating primarily in his ownname.
[331][332]
Trump told investigators he did so on theadvice of his lawyers. He also said the contributions werenot to gain favor with business-friendly candidates, butsimply to satisfy requests from friends.
[331][333]

Mainarticle: DonaldTrumppresidentialcampaign, 2016On June 16, 2015, Trump announced his candidacy for
Trump campaigning in Laconia, New Hampshire , on July 16,2015
President of the United States at Trump Tower in Man-hattan. In the speech, Trump drew attention to domesticissues such as illegal immigration, offshoring of Ameri-
can jobs, the U.S. national debt, and Islamic terrorism,
which all remained large priorities during the campaign.He also announced his campaign slogan, "Make AmericaGreat Again".
[339]
In his campaign, Trump said that he disdained politicalcorrectness; he also stated that the media had inten-tionally misinterpreted his words, and he made otherclaims of adverse media bias.
[340][341][342]
In part due tohis fame, Trump received an unprecedented amount ofunpaid coverage from the media during his run for thepresidency; this elevated his standing in the Republicanprimaries.
[343]
Republican leaders such as House Speaker Paul Ryanwere hesitant to support him during his early quest forthe presidency. They doubted his chances of winning thegeneral election and feared that he could harm the imageof the Republican Party.
[344][345]
The alt-right movement coalesced around Trump’scandidacy,
[346]
due in part to its opposition to multicul-turalism and immigration.
[347][348]
The connection of thisgroup to the Trump campaign is controversial; writerssuch as Jon Ronson have suggested that the link betweenTrump and right-wing figures such as Alex Jones andRoger Stone is a marriage of convenience.
[349]
During the campaign, Trump was accused of panderingto white nationalists,
[350]
especially in his initial refusal tocondemn the support of David Duke, a former Imperial
Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, in a CNN interview with
Jake Tapper. He had previously criticized Duke in 1991,disavowed the 2000 Reform Party due to the supportof Duke and others, and condemned Duke on the cam-paign trail both before and after the interview.
[351]
In Au-gust, he appointed Steve Bannon—the executive chair-man of Breitbart News—as his campaign CEO; the web-site was described by Bannon as “the platform for thealt-right.”
[352]
However, Bannon later told the
Wall Street Journal
that he was an “economic nationalist” but not “asupporter of ethno-nationalism.”
[353]
Some rallies during the primary season were ac-companied by protests or violence, including at-tacks on protesters inside the rallies, and clashes be-tween protesters and Trump supporters outside thevenues.
[354][355][356]
Fact-checking organizations have denounced Trump formaking a record number of false statements compared toother candidates.
[357][358][359]
At least four major publi-cations –
Politico
,
The Washington Post
,
The New York Times
, and the
Los Angeles Times
– have pointed out liesor falsehoods in his campaign statements.
[360]
Trump’spenchant for hyperbole is believed to have roots in theNew York real estate scene, where Trump established hiswealth and where puffery abounds. Trump has called hispublic speaking “truthful hyperbole”, though online me-dia outlets such as Yahoo! believed Trump’s “truthful hy-
4.4 2016 presidential campaign
15perbole” to be a political tactic.
[361][362]
Lucas Graves,an assistant professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison School of Journalism & Mass Communica-tion,
[363]
opined, of Trump’s speaking, that Trump “of-ten speaks in a suggestive way that makes it unclear whatexactly he meant, so that fact-checkers “have to be re-ally careful when you pick claims to check to pick things... that reflect what the speaker was clearly trying tocommunicate.”
[364]
Other sources, such as
NPR
, also saidthat Trump’s statements during the campaign were oftenopaque or suggestive.

[389]
This wasthe most watched presidential debate in United Stateshistory.
[390]
The second presidential debate was held atWashington University in Saint Louis, Missouri. The
beginning narrative of that debate was dominated bya leaked tape of Trump making lewd comments, andcounter-accusations by Trump of sexual misconduct byBill Clinton. Trump had invited four women who had ac-cused Clinton of impropriety to a press conference priortothedebate. ThefinalpresidentialdebatewasheldattheUniversityofNevada,LasVegasonOctober19.

4.4.4 Political positions
Main article: Political positions of Donald TrumpTrump’s campaign platform emphasized renegotiatingU.S.–China relations and free trade agreements such as
NAFTA and the Trans-Pacific Partnership, strongly en-
forcing immigration laws, and building a new wall along
the U.S.–Mexico border. His other campaign positionsincluded pursuing energy independence while oppos-ing climate change regulations such as the Clean Power
Plan and the Paris Agreement, modernizing and ex-
pediting services for veterans, repealing and replacingthe Affordable Care Act, abolishing Common Core ed-
ucation standards, investing in infrastructure, simplify-ing the tax code while reducing taxes for all economicclasses, and imposing tariffs on imports by companies
that offshore jobs. During the campaign, he also advo-cated a largely non-interventionist approach to foreign
policy while increasing military spending, extreme vet-
ting of immigrants from Muslim-majority countries to
pre-empt domestic Islamic terrorism, and aggressive mil-itary action against Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant(ISIL, also known as ISIS or IS).Media have described Trump’s political positions as"populist",
[393][394]
and some of his views cross partylines. For example, his economic campaign plan callsforlargereductionsinincometaxesandderegulation,
[395]
consistent with Republican Party policies, along with sig-nificant infrastructure investment,
[396]
usually considereda liberal (Democratic Party) policy.
[397][398]
According topolitical writer Jack Shafer, Trump may be a “fairly con-ventional American populist when it comes to his policyviews”, butheattractsfreemediaattention, sometimesbymaking outrageous comments.
[399][400]
Trump has supported or leaned toward varying politi-cal positions over time.
[401][402][403]
Politico
has describedhis positions as “eclectic, improvisational and oftencontradictory”,
[403]
while NBC News counted “141 dis-tinct shifts on 23 major issues” during his campaign.

During the campaign, Trumprepeatedly praised Russian president Vladimir Putin asa strong leader.
[407]
Several of Trump’s advisers, includ-ing former National Security Advisor Michael T. Flynnand former campaign manager Paul Manafort, have beenconnected to Russian or Ukrainian officials.
[190][408]
TheNational Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine released
information that helped to force Manafort’s resignationas campaign manager.
[409]
American intelligence sourcesstated with “high confidence”
[410]
that the Russian gov-ernment attempted to intervene in the 2016 presidentialelection to favor the election of Trump by hacking intocomputers of Trumps’ opponents,

4.4.6 Sexual misconduct allegations
Main articles: Donald Trump and Billy Bush recordingand Donald Trump sexual misconduct allegationsTwo days before the second presidential debate, a 2005
recording surfaced in which Trump was heard braggingabout forcibly kissing and groping women.
[413][414][415]
The hot mic recording was captured on a studio bus in
4.4 2016 presidential campaign
17which Trump and Billy Bush were preparing to film anepisode of
Access Hollywood .
“I just start kissing them,”Trump said, “I don't even wait. And when you're a star,theyletyoudoit,youcandoanything... grabthembythepussy.”
[416]
During the recording, Trump also spoke ofhis efforts to seduce a married woman, saying he “movedon her very heavily.”
[416]
These statements were recordedseveral months after Trump married his third and currentwife, Melania, who was pregnant at the time.
[416][417]
Trump’s language on the tape was described by the me-dia as “vulgar”, “sexist”, and descriptive of sexual as-sault. The incident prompted him to make his first pub-lic apology during the campaign,
[418][419]
and caused out-rageacrossthepoliticalspectrum,
[420][421]
withmanyRe-publicans withdrawing their endorsements of his candi-dacy and some urging him to quit the race.
[422]
A num-ber of Trump supporters worldwide also withdrew theirsupport following release of the tape, including manyConservatives in Britain.
[423]
Subsequently, at least 15women
[424]
came forward with new accusations of sex-ual misconduct, including unwanted kissing and groping,resulting in widespread media coverage.
[425][426]
Trump and his campaign have denied all of thesexual misconduct accusations, which Trump hascalled “false smears”, and alleged a conspiracy againsthim.
[427][428][429]
In his two public statements in responseto the controversy, Trump responded by alleging thatBill Clinton, former President of the United States andhusband of Trump’s Democratic rival Hillary Clinton,had “abused women” and that Hillary had bullied herhusband’s victims.

2016 electoral vote results
306 electoral votes to Clinton’s 232 votes. The countswere later adjusted to 304 and 227 respectively, afterdefections on both sides, formalizing Trump’s electionto the presidency.
[431]
In the early hours of November 9,Clinton called Trump to concede the election. Trumpthen delivered his victory speech before hundreds ofsupporters in the New York Hilton hotel. The speechwas in contrast with some of his previous rhetoric, withTrump promising to heal the division caused by the elec-tion, thanking Clinton for her service to the country, andpromising to be a president to all Americans.
[432][433]
Trump received a smaller share of the popular vote thanClinton, making him the fifth person to be elected presi-dent after losing the popular vote. Records on this matterdate from the year 1824.
[434][nb 1]
Clinton finished aheadby 2.86 million votes or 2.1 percentage points, 48.04%to 45.95%, with neither candidate reaching a majoritynationwide.
[437][438]
Trump’s victory was considered a stunning political up-set, as polls consistently showed Hillary Clinton lead-ing nationwide (where she did win) and in most bat-tleground states, while Trump’s support had been un-derestimated throughout his campaign.
[439]
The errors insome state polls were later partially attributed to pollstersoverestimating Clinton’s support among well-educatedandnonwhitevoters, whileunderestimatingTrump’ssup-port among white working-class voters.
[440]
Trump wonthe perennial swing states of Florida, Iowa and Ohio,
and flipped Clinton’s "blue wall" states of Michigan,
PennsylvaniaandWisconsin,whichhadbeenDemocratic
strongholds since the 1990s. Trump’s victory markedthe return of a Republican White House combined withcontrol of both chambers of Congress, as was the case
during parts of George W. Bush's presidency from 2003
to 2007.Trump became the first president without prior govern-mental or military experience.
[441][442][443]
Of the 44 pre-vious presidents, 39 had held prior elective office; twohad not held elective office but had served in the Cabinet;and three had never held public office but had been com-mandinggenerals.

1916, and Richard Nixon (New York) in 1968.
[444]
4.4.8 Protests
Main article: Protests against Donald TrumpTrump’s victory sparked protests across the UnitedStates. Trump opponents took to the streets to am-plify their opposition to Trump’s views and denouncehis inflammatory statements. Some argued that Clin-ton’s popular vote victory meant Trump was not thedemocratically elected president and should be consid-ered illegitimate.
[445]
Trump initially said on Twitter thatthe protests consisted of “professional protesters, incitedby the media”, and were “unfair”, but he later statedthat he loves their passion for the country.
[446][447]
Incontrast, after Obama’s re-election in 2012, Trump had
18

tweeted “We can't let this happen. We should march onWashington and stop this travesty. Our nation is totallydivided!"
[448]
On the Saturday following Trump’s inaugurationthere were massive demonstrations protesting Trumpin the United States and worldwide, with approxi-mately 2,600,000 taking part in Women’s Marchesworldwide.
[449]
The most notable of these marches wasthe Women’s March on Washington (in Washington,
D.C.), where over 500,000 people marched in oppo-sition to Trump.
[450]
This was more than three timesthe number of people who were at Trump’s inauguralspeech, according to crowd scientists at the ManchesterMetropolitan University.

The early tim-ing of the beginning of the campaign was highly unortho-dox. Trump marked the official start of the campaignwith a campaign rally in Melbourne, Florida on February18, 2017, less than a month after taking office.
[455]
ByFebruary 1, 2017, the campaign had already raised over$7 million.

5.2 First 100 days
19fice on Inauguration Day because of delays in the for-mal confirmation process. By February 8, 2017, Presi-dent Trump had fewer cabinet nominees confirmed thanany prior president two weeks into their mandate, exceptGeorge Washington.
[479][480]
Part of the lateness was as-cribed to delays in submitting background-check paper-work, part to obstructionism by Senate Democrats.
[481]
5.1.3 Pre-inauguration events
On November 22, Trump outlined his plan for his first100 days in office in a video posted on YouTube. The
plan included the United States’ withdrawal from theTrans-Pacific Partnership and asking the Department ofDefense to develop a plan to protect the U.S. from cyber-attack.
[482][483]
On December 7,

named Trump as its "Person ofthe Year".
[484]
In an interview on
The Today Show
, hesaid he was honored by the award, but he took issuewith the magazine for referring to him as the “Presidentof the Divided States of America.”
[485][486]

[487]
On December 13 hewas named
Financial Times

[488]
InDecember 2016,
Forbes
ranked Trump the second mostpowerful person in the world, after Vladimir Putin and

Based on intelligence reports issued from October 2016to January 2017, the Obama administration accused theRussian government of trying to influence the U.S. presi-dential election in favor of Trump, by supplying the DNCemails to WikiLeaks for publication.
[490]
Trump,
[491]
WikiLeaks
[492]
and Russian officials
[493]
have denied theallegations.In January 2017, Trump was briefed on a private intelli-gence dossier containing “potentially compromising per-sonal and financial information” about his activities inRussia,
[494]
which he denied.
[495]
The dossier was alsoleaked to the press and published.
[496]
Media evaluationof the dossier ranged from “garbage”
[497]
to “partiallycorroborated”.

[500]
Later,the administration seemed to reverse a portion of partof the order, effectively exempting visitors with a greencard.
[501][502]
Two Iraqi nationals detained upon arrivalfiled a complaint.
[503]
Several federal judges issued rul-ings that curtailed parts of the immigration order, stop-ping the federal government from deporting visitors al-ready affected.

In late January 2017, Trump issued an executive orderbanning the admission of immigrants from seven pre-dominantly Muslim countries.
[531]
The order was im-posed without warning and took effect immediately;
[532]
the measure caused chaos at many airports, with con-secutive days of mass protest afflicting major airportsin the United States.
[533]
Multiple legal challenges werefiled against the order, and a federal court blocked itsimplementation.
[532]
In early March 2017, Trump issueda revised order into law, which excluded Iraq, gave spe-

[580]
A week later Trump signed Executive Order 13771, di-recting administrative agencies to repeal two existingregulations for every new regulation they issue.
[581][582]

would do no more than slow the regulatory process, be-cause it did not block rules required by statute.
[583]
On February 24, 2017, Trump ordered the agencies tocreate task forces to determine which regulations aredeemed burdensome to the U.S. economy.

[1] The number “five” includes the elections of 1824, 1876,1888, 2000, and 2016. Despite their similarities, some ofthese five elections had peculiar results; e.g. John QuincyAdams trailed in
both
the national popular vote and theelectoral college in 1824 (since no-one had a majority inthe electoral college, Adams was chosen by the House ofRepresentatives), and Samuel Tilden in 1876 remains theonlylosingcandidateto win an actualmajorityofthepop-ular vote (rather than just a plurality).
