Donald Trump

During the 1980’s, the name synonymous with wealth, opulence, and “bling-bling” was Donald Trump. A New York real estate magnate who knew, as his book said, “The Art of the Deal.” From luxurious hotels in Manhattan, to Atlantic City casinos, his airline and best-selling books, Trump had the golden touch. Despite his particular brand of charisma, knack for making deals and for recognizing a good investment when he saw one, Trump’s billion-dollar empire crumbled in 1990 when he was forced into near bankruptcy for more than $3 billion in bank loans. His name helped him bounce back-- all the way to television stardom in the NBC hit “The Apprentice.” Our profile shows viewers the story behind the rise, fall and rise again of Donald Trump. We cover the life, the loves, the excess and what many may not know about the legend that is Donald Trump.
