The infamous mugshot of Donald Trump, August 2023

**Donald John Trump** (b. June 14, 1946) was an American businessman and television personality who ruled the Trump Organization and served as President of the United States for a single term in the late 2010s. Trump is solely responsible for the overturning of *Roe v. Wade* in 2022, though was no longer President at the time of the event; he shifted the U.S. Republican Party farther to the right, and he cost the Republican its entire trifecta status in a single term, the first President to cost his party the White House and Congress in one term in nearly 90-years. Trump made no progress in disarming Iran from a nuclear warhead, in fact, he rolled back progress made by Obama motivated by his discontent with the former President over the policy merits of the Iran deal, and he was extremely sympathetic to Russia, ironically an American adversary, thus working against American vital interests likely to serve his business goals in Russia. Trump's ultimate disgrace was his role in the January 6th insurrection against Congress in retaliation to his loss to Joe Biden in the 2020 U.S. presidential election, and as a result, he was impeached twice, the first impeachment was in 2019 when he tried to pressure Ukraine to get dirt on Biden, but Trump overestimated the amount of privacy there is in the White House and he was busted as a result. The insurrection at the U.S. Capitol and Trump's actions in response to the 2020 presidential election led to him face prosecution that he was mugshot in 2023.

## Biography

Trump was born in 1946 into a wealthy family in New York City to Fred and Mary MacLeod Trump. The Trumps immigrated to the United States from Germany in the late 19th century, and Trump's mother was a Scottish immigrant, which is ironic given Trump's anti-immigrant rhetoric and policies as a presidential candidate and as President. Trump was preached about success and staying ahead, which would get over his head that Trump's father shifted him off to military school. This backfired as Trump remained determined to get ahead and rise through the ranks to get his desired outcome. His lessons of getting ahead and "being a killer" as his father greatly expected of his sons, was mostly learned from the death of his brother Freddie Trump, who already had a daughter and eventually repeatedly speak against her family most especially her uncle Donald as a result of her father's passing to alcoholism, and her father was bullied by the family because he sought to become a pilot. Trump attended Wharton School, where he tricked his way in and take up the ranks of the Trump Organization, where he and his father were sued by African-Americans and their ACLU representatives for housing discrimination. Trump's first attorney was Roy Cohn, a key second-in-command to U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy's crusade and witch hunt against suspected communists during the 1950s. Cohn died of AIDS during the disease's outbreak during the 1980s. Trump married an Eastern European immigrant, Ivana, and had three children, Donald Jr, Eric, and Ivanka, but they divorced in 1990. Trump married Marla Maples, and the two had a daughter together, Tiffany, but they divorced in 1999, and Trump met Melania, like Ivana, another Eastern European immigrant, they dated for a while and married in 2005, and a year later, their sole son, Barron, was born.

Trump was known in New York City to be a lousy businessman and a loser to the banks, and his father had to intervene. But his father died in 1999, so Trump found other people to be his fixers. In total, he filed six bankruptcies, and having to rely on other people to do the work for him. As a result, banks refused to loan him money but the bank he did found was a German banking firm, called Deutsche Bank, who are said to have Russian ties. Of all Trump's successful projects, his TV show, the Apprentice, was successfully appealing to Americans, and his famous line was "you're fired!" when he is dissatisfied with the underperformance of his fellow executives. Trump became known for his ballsy lifestyle and tough boss appearance. Trump began to dabble with politics, espousing populist ring that will be familiar in the future, saying the United States is being fooled in trade and teased repeatedly about running for President. But Trump's political dabbling would take a dark turn, where a group of Black American boys were accused of raping and murdering a white girl and they were awaiting capital punishment due to trumped up charges and likely institutional racism in the justice system, and Trump seized the opportunity to way in and openly talked ill of the boys that he advocated for their death sentences, however, the true rapist turned himself in, and the result was the acquittal of these black teenagers, sparing them from the death penalty over a crime they did not commit, but Trump continued to advocate for their prosecution despite they were clearly exonerated. Trump was seen partying with Jeffrey Epstein, a prominent financier and sex trafficker of underage females.

Trump ran for President in 2000, but he bowed out. Trump accused U.S. President Barack Obama of being a foreigner due to his name, demanding that he released the birth certificate, which he promptly did, often repeatedly, which revealed that President Obama was born on August 4, 1961, in Honolulu, Hawaii, therefore Obama is legally and constitutionally permitted to serve his duty as President of the United States. Trump chickened out from challenging Obama in the 2012 U.S. presidential election, which ultimately resulted in Obama getting easily reelected over Republican nominee Mitt Romney, Obama trounced Romney by a wide margin in the electoral college and by five million votes over Romney. With Obama term-limited, Trump announced his candidacy for President in June 2015, for the 2016 U.S. presidential election to replace the term-limited Obama. Trump began his campaign espousing seemingly racist, Islamophobic, and xenophobic themes, proposals, and statements, prompting opposition from both establishment parties across the aisle, but a polarizing and divided response from the American public, average liberals strongly reject Trump's words, while average conservatives rallied around Trump for his words as well as his business credentials. Trump exploited the increasing anti-politician and anti-establishment feelings among apolitical and disaffected working-class Americans and thus, forging the Trump coalition that will win him the Republican nomination and ultimately, win him the Presidency in an upset victory over Hillary Clinton, who proved to be the very wrong choice for the Democratic Party in the midst of anti-politician and anti-establishment discontent in the country, and Clinton's handling of highly classified emails too little to help the Democrats in this predicament.

Trump became President on January 20, 2017 in the midst of incredible Republican power in the country, but it didn't kick off to a good start. Trump had never been a politician and while that was his advantage at winning an election, it was not an advantage when it comes to governing and actually getting things done through the U.S. Congress despite it being under strong Republican control. A political party is the alliance of factions of different ideologies that are closely related, and when a party holds a single hand, their ideological differences will often get in the way of supporting the President due to representing very different parts of the country, this is the primary reason Presidents don't often do as they promised. Politics and actually running the country are radically two different things.

Trump and Republicans had promised since the passage of the Affordable Care Act of 2010 (or Obamacare) in the midst of even stronger Democratic control of government back in 2009, that they would repeal Obamacare due to its several flaws, however, the Republicans could not agree on how to repeal it or what to replace with. Leading to Trump's first legislative disaster. The American Health Care Act of 2017 was proposed as an alternative and replacement to Obamacare, but the Republican divisions and the unexpectedly raw unpopularity with the American public severely stymied the Republican healthcare plan so bad that it ultimately disintegrated in the summer of 2017, thus sparing Obamacare more years of survivability. Plus, there are damning allegations that the Trump team, maybe Trump himself even, have meddled with the Russians to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election, and aided by Democratic grievance over the 2016 election result, it became a firery issue that a special counsel inquiry was launched to investigate the Trump campaign's illegal shenanigans with Moscow, severely distracting Trump from doing his job, making him publicly seen as guilty.

Not knowing how to run the country, getting only little party policy priorities done despite handy unified control of Congress, a rocky Supreme Court nomination, and his temper as President all enabled a bruising Democratic Party wave in the 2018 U.S. midterm elections, where Democrats won the U.S. House of Representatives in a landslide and gained heavily in state governments across the nation despite Trump luckily mildly gaining seats in the U.S. Senate due to Democrats holding seats in deeply Republican turf. Trump would go on to lose reelection and left his party with no control of the Presidency or Congress by 2021, he faced backlash for his lackluster performance in the COVID-19 pandemic, and he accused his electoral loss of being fraud with no evidence, resulting in the January 6th insurrection which only led to his second impeachment on the way out.

No longer in the White House, Trump sought to maintain his relevance in the Republican Party, starting with the 2022 U.S. midterm elections. Similar to his midterm wipeout in 2018, it was widely believed that with a Democratic President in sought, it would be the Democrats who will be on thin ice because it is hard to win a midterm election for a party that has the White House, and the Democrats' already weak position was further worsened by inflation, crime waves, and an unstable U.S.-Mexico border, resulting in President Joe Biden's unpopularity, and Trump sought to take advantage of the situation to regain ground ahead of a planned 2024 campaign for President. Trump successfully influenced the Republican primaries in favor of radical right-wing candidates, and it seemed as if by election day 2022, all hope was lost for Democrats and Republicans were looking forward for a New Year-like celebration of a landslide victory, but unfortunately for Trump and the Republicans, the 2022 midterm elections went kablooey. Democrats outperformed expectations and defied history on a silver splatter, they gained ground in state governments across the country and bolstered its majority in the Senate, while the only silver lining for Republicans is that they managed to barely win control of the U.S. House of Representatives by a smaller-than-expected margin. The midterm debacle threatened Trump's hold on the Republican Party that not everybody in the Republican Party welcomed Trump in the 2024 presidential campaign. Biden in comparison saw his position in the Democratic Party stabilized if not strengthened, and he was allowed full reign to decide whether he wanted to seek reelection.

## Role in Chawosauria

Donald Trump had not been such a popular figure in Chawosauria, he is ill-regarded as narcissistic, sexually perverted, and in the Chawosaurian way of saying, a prick head.
