Donald John Trump is the 45th and 47th President of the United States, having staged one of the most unprecedented and historic political comebacks in American history by winning the 2024 presidential election. A billionaire real estate developer and former reality television star ("The Apprentice"), Trump fundamentally reshaped the Republican Party into a populist, "America First" movement. His first term (2017–2021) was defined by massive tax cuts, conservative judicial appointments (including three Supreme Court Justices), the renegotiation of trade deals (USMCA), and highly unorthodox foreign policy. Following a highly contentious exit from office in 2021 and multiple unprecedented federal and state criminal indictments, Trump survived two assassination attempts in 2024 and galvanized a massive coalition of working-class and rural voters to defeat the Democratic ticket. Now in his second term (2025-2029), his administration is characterized by aggressive deregulation, mass deportation operations, stringent tariffs, and the dismantling of the "administrative state." He remains the most polarizing figure in modern global politics.
