The latest to join the race for the 2016 Presidency is reality TV host and business mogul, Donald Trump. After talking about running multiple times since 1987, Trump has officially joined his esteemed Republican rivals. But besides his unconventional hairstyle and demanding to see Obama's birth certificate in 2011, what do we really know about the 69-year-old New Yorker? Who exactly is Donald Trump?
加入2016年总统竞选的最新成员是真人秀节目主持人兼商业大亨唐纳德·特朗普 。自1987年以来多次谈论竞选之后,特朗普正式加入了他备受尊敬的共和党竞争对手之中 。但除了他另类的发型,以及在2011年要求看到奥巴马的出生证明,我们对这位69岁的纽约人又真正了解多少?唐纳德·特朗普究竟是什么人?
Well, Trump is first and foremost a controversially successful business magnate and investor. His start came as a result of his father, Fred Trump, who had already amassed a real estate fortune before his death. Donald Trump has controlled his father's company since the 1970s. He has primarily invested in hotel and casino real estate, and filed for business bankruptcy four times.
那么首先,特朗普是一位备受争议的、成功的商业巨头和投资人 。他事业的起步建立在他父亲——弗雷德·特朗普去世前积累的房地产财富之上 。自上世纪70年代以来,唐纳德·特朗普一直管理着着他父亲的公司 。他主要投资酒店和赌场地产,并四次申请破产 。
He is also very well known for naming business holdings after himself, including buildings, video games, buffets, magazines, clothing lines, and many others. Trump also owns a large number of golf courses and beauty pageants. He has stated that his net worth is around $9 billion, making him the wealthiest candidate in the running, although Forbes says it is closer to $4 billion. His net worth has been disputed in the past: a 2005 Deutsche (DOY-chuh) Bank assessment pegged his worth at only $800 million at the time.
他的商业资产包括建筑物、电子游戏、自助餐厅、杂志、服装系列等等 。他用自己的名字命名这些商业资产,因此而闻名 。特朗普名下还拥有许多高尔夫球场,其公司曾主办过选美比赛 。他表示其净资产约为90亿美元,这使他成为最富有的参选者,尽管福布斯称其净资产接近40亿美元 。以前,他的净资产一直存在争议:2005年,德意志银行评估其当时的价值仅有约8亿美元 。
