10 things you didn’t know about Donald Trump

July 24, 2016 By: Stephen Dietrich

  • Post

He’s a global icon and on his way to becoming the next president of the United States.

But even though Donald Trump has spent decades in the spotlight, there’s still plenty about his life that many people don’t know.

We put together this list of 10 surprising facts. Check them out and tell us how many you already knew.

 

# 10 The sauce? Trump doesn’t touch it

When Donald Trump gives a toast at a state dinner, don’t be surprised if it’s sparkling grape juice in his glass. Because The Donald doesn’t drink… ever. Aside from being famously disciplined, Trump lost a brother, Fred, to alcoholism. And that was plenty of motivation for Trump to keep booze out of his life.

 

#9 A civil rights pioneer is backing Trump

Trump’s opponents have called him a racist and claim he can’t draw support from African Americans. But Charles Evers — a civil rights icon and brother of the legendary Medgar Evers — has come out in support of Trump. Evers claims a businessman like Trump is the right person to bring jobs to Evers’ home state of Mississippi.

 

#8 Trump was a wiz on the baseball diamond

We all know Trump is an avid — and accomplished — golfer. But he was actually a three-sport athlete at the New York Military Academy, playing soccer, football, and baseball. And a former classmate claimed Trump was good enough at baseball to play professionally. When Trump throws out first pitches as president, expect him to bring some heat.  

 

#7 And he was good at fake sports, too

Believe it or not, Trump has actually been enshrined in the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Hall of Fame. Trump had a famous bet with WWE honcho Vince McMahon where the loser had to shave his head. Trump won and his precious locks remained intact.

 

#6 Not every Trump deal was a winner

Trump’s repeatedly been willing to show his fun, lighter side. And there may be no better example than his funny (and slightly bizarre) Trump: The Game. The Monopoly-inspired board game was released in 1988 and wasn’t as successful as other Trump licensing deals. But if you can’t get enough of Trump, you can still pick up the game on eBay as a collector’s item.

 

#5 Bill Maher learned not to mess with Trump

When Trump was raising the issue of whether President Barack Obama was born in America, talk show host Bill Maher decided to have some tasteless fun at Trump’s expense. Maher offered $5 million if Trump could prove he wasn’t fathered by an orangutan. When Trump immediately produced his own birth certificate and came collecting, Maher welched. Trump sued to collect — and although Trump eventually dropped the litigation, Maher learned a valuable lesson about messing with The Donald.

 

#4 He once served as a financial adviser to boxing champ Mike Tyson

We’re going to give Trump a pass on this one. As the saying goes, you can lead a horse to water… We’re guessing the pet tigers and other items Tyson squandered his fortune on weren’t recommended by Trump.

 

#3 Trump proved his business acumen — in three months

In the 1980s, the famous Wollman Rink in New York City’s Central Park was in serious trouble. Renovations were six years overdue and way over budget. Trump put up the money to fix the rink himself — and had the project done under budget in three months. It’s one of the stories that cemented Trump’s legacy as a New York business legend. 

 

#2 Tinsel Town is Trump Town

If Trump wins in November, he’ll join Ronald Reagan as the only presidents with stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He earned the honor for his hit television show “The Apprentice,” another Trump success.

 

#1 Trump and Obama could have been golfing buddies

Trump once famously offered to give President Obama free golf for life at all Trump courses. All Obama had to do was quit the presidency. It’s one deal Trump didn’t get done — and it’s a shame for all of us.

    How is Mr. Trump going to fit in with the Washington, D.C. crowd if he doesn’t drink alcohol? You shouldn’t have revealed that secret. He could have faked drinking. Also if he likes baseball that’s a plus with me. Wasn’t HW Bush also baseball player?

            If anyone is a Con, it is Hillary and the whole DNC. They hope to keep the wool over the eyes of the sheep while they the Dems cover and lie that they are the wolves that will bring down our country. Wake up! an international businessman is a straight shooter. He built his billions, crooked Hillary had donations and illegal ones as well

        Senior Bush played baseball at Yale. GW Bush was owner of Texas Rangers-or part owner. No political comments about Bush here. Just the fact that he played baseball.

    • Patriot says

      July 24, 2016 at 11:35 am

      Yes, the Bushes owned the Texas Rangers. We met GW Bush at Ranger Stadium in Port Charlotte, FL, the Ranger’s summer training stadium. Now, am sorry we met them after how the Bushes have treated Mr. Trump. There’s even a Texas Ranger Hall of Fame Museum in Waco, TX, right near Baylor University. Now, there are two reasons in one sentence to stay away from Waco, if one even thought of heading there.

      • Wendy says

        July 24, 2016 at 12:59 pm

        Bushes especially JEB! that lost fairly after signing a pledge to support the nominee has zero honor. Bush family is right in line with that.

        • Recce1 says

          July 26, 2016 at 6:11 am

          Once the Democrat Convention is over and Hillary is nominated, then the presidential campaign begins in earnest. Let’s see if Jeb Bush and the other GOP primary candidates keep their pledge promise before we claim they haven’t done so.

      • Gary says

        July 25, 2016 at 7:13 pm

        The Texas Ranger Hall of Fame in Waco has nothing to do with the baseball team. It is for the legendary Texas Ranger law enforcement organization, i.e. Walker, Texas Ranger, and The Lone Ranger of radio and TV programs.

      Not drinking alcohol is no longer an issue as it was 30 years ago. In fact not imbibing is much more a positive than a negative. It definitely benefits ones cost for insurance and even in finding employment. The biggest problem I have in finding employees is finding people that can pass a drug test. Lots of applications but when they find out a drug test is required they don’t bother. It is really a shame how many people can’t find a job when there are really very many available. Actions do have consequences that follow one through their entire life.

      • Wendy says

        July 24, 2016 at 12:57 pm

        It IS an issue if you have an alcoholic in your bloodline family!!!!

        • gary falk says

          July 24, 2016 at 3:06 pm

          Just how stunned and uninformed are you Wendy. Go back and at least get your grade 7!

          • Recce1 says

            July 26, 2016 at 6:17 am

            A tendency for alcoholism can run in families; that’s why it’s an issue. For those who’re wise, it’s often better to avoid alcohol rather than risking addiction. Even some groups, such as Native Americans, are more susceptible to alcoholism due to genetic reasons.

          • Constitutionalist says

            July 27, 2016 at 6:34 am

            gary-
            Actually, Wendy has it right; Trump doesn’t drink because his brother Fred drank himself to death…perhaps among other reasons, but that would be the main one, and the primary cause behind why he taught his children not to drink, too.

            The insults you flung therefore have no validity; you should retract them.

      • Capt Prozac says

        July 24, 2016 at 2:46 pm

    • ILLINOIS BOB says

      July 24, 2016 at 12:05 pm

      No big deal if he does not drink – and we understand why he chose not to. Everyone is different, and I would rather have the codes in the hands of Trump over Hillary(Her and Bill partied way too much over the last 40 years).

      • Holice Pender says

        July 24, 2016 at 9:44 pm

        It makes me shudder to even think of her having the codes. If she would not come to the rescue of our Benghazi embassy compound, in which 4 brave young men perished, I would not trust her to protect this great nation & its people. I actually believe she is too incompetent to be POTUS.

    • Lou Clauson says

      July 24, 2016 at 12:06 pm

      Why should he have to keep it a secret… I and many others respect his decision to abstain from using alcohol and he should not have to apologize for it!!

      • Phyl says

        July 29, 2016 at 12:50 am

        Lou Clauson. . .you are so right. Donald Trump’s reason for not drinking is his own person business and has nothing to do with being a working President of our America. In fact I admire him for it. This means he can be focused mentally at 3a.m. in the morning if he should get a call to send troops to protect our soldiers in. . . .oh, maybe Benghazi or some place like that. Ya think???

    • Helen Higgason says

      July 24, 2016 at 12:12 pm

      What difference does it make, as old Hillary says, you don’t have to drink to be with people that do, just how , do you think that sound, Mr. Hartsock, I have known plenty of people( as well as myself)that doesn’t drink, and I’m OK with that as well as my friends!!

    • Darrel Dunson says

      July 24, 2016 at 12:29 pm

      Trump doesn’t want to “fit in with the crowd”. Haven’t you noticed? He wants to “lead the crowd down a different path” Hence his unbelievable popularity with and loyalty from the common voter in this election. Prediction : that will only grow and it is something that will continue to strike utter fear in the hearts and minds of the establishment politicians. Trump will win in November by the largest popular vote in history. That is a warning to any establishment politician with hopes of derailing this steamroller of a movement. It means get on board, get out of the way, or else! There are no other alternatives. The people have spoken, are continuing to speak, loudly. This is a movement that, now it is moving (pun intended) , will gain strength such that it will continue even without Trump if necessary (that for all those die hard establishment politicians believing that Trump’s demise would end the effectiveness of the movement. Such intervention would only harden the movement and remove the compassion that now leads. Such would be catastrophic for all opponents.

        This election is not Republican versus Democrat. It is good [constitution, Bill of Rights, Healthy food and water] versus evil [New World Order — United Nations Agenda 21 including 90% depopulation through the use of abortion, forced sterilization, toxic air, toxic water, toxic food, and toxic vaccines] http://useugenics.FarTooMuch.Info …
        There are those Republicans that are supported by Monsanto with their toxic food and herbicide [RoundUp containing the carcinogenic glyphosate] that must therefore oppose Trump who is opposed to this mass poisoning of us and our children.

        People have been watching things go down to shit for everyone except the politicians who are fat cats, padding their pockets deeper every day with every deal. No matter if we are the ones suffering the consequences. Trump has awoken the silent majority, and given the rest of us a renewed energy to keep things moving as well. People have had enough! Even the sheep are restless and jumping the fence to join Trump, yea! Let’s keep the pressure on people,. The scandals on Dems side just keep coming one right after another. With some luck it will be their own undoing no matter what they try to do to Trump. We need to keep the flags of freedom from NWO flying high. Is anyone going to see the film in theaters on Hilary? Wonder what new secrets it wil expose. Mi

    • Wendy says

      July 24, 2016 at 12:55 pm

      Mr. Trump reviewed regularly with his excellent progeny the things in life that were TABOO. He explained if one never starts them, they won’t miss them. 1. Never drink alcohol2. Never use tobacco in any form. 3. Never do drugs. 4. And no TATOOS. Clear written taboo in Leviticus.

    • Bob says

      July 24, 2016 at 1:19 pm

      I am glad he doesn’t drink. That makes him a better man than most of Washington DC

      • kay says

        July 25, 2016 at 12:52 pm

        It certainly makes him clearer thinking and more on top it all around. People with hangovers and other issues don’t have too much on the ball, ceven the more educated can’t hold things together for long with all the brain fog, at least by those I’ve known. Not into those things myself either, but know plenty around me that are..

    • Mailman says

      July 24, 2016 at 9:23 pm

      Donald Trump is not the only business man who is a tee-totaler. Mr. John D. Rockefeller II who also donated vast sums to public causes also did not drink. He the wealthiest man in America at that time (I believe) was also a Baptist. He is the reason we have the marvelous historical area of “Colonial Williamsburg.”

      • Constitutionalist says

        July 25, 2016 at 1:41 pm

        Mailman-
        Not smoking or drinking is no guarantor of honorable character – Hitler, for example, neither smoked nor drank.

        That said, and based on the testimonies of his family members as well as a long history of professing what he professes today(see Oprah interview from 25 years ago), i believe that Trump IS a man of good character, one who WILL get things done – and i believe HE believes he’ll do everything in his power to restore America to greatness, and improve the lot of EVERY American willing to work to improve their condition or status.

      I am sad that the NeverTrump group is attacking him stronger than ever. It seems they are helping Hillary.

      If Trump loses, I predict we will change to a one-party system. The demographics will only support Democrats in four years, if Hillary is elected. If Cruz runs again, it had better be as a Democrat.

        July 24, 2016 at 11:44 am

        I read somewhere that a democratic lobbying group is now heavily involved in a “never Trump” campaign and is organizing Trump protestors behind the scenes. So, I think it’s mostly the democrats that are moving forward with a “never Trump” campaign rather than those republicans that didn’t get their way.

          accompanying her even to the polling place where he stumped for her (which
          is against the law)…..but so what? Laws were not meant for the Clintons . . .

        Ha! We have had a one-party system for decades. As Gov. Wallace said fifty years ago, “There isn’t a dime’s worth of difference between the Republican and Democratic parties.” If Trump wins, let’s hope he can remake the Republican party.

        July 25, 2016 at 1:17 pm

        These new scandals re: hacked damaging e-mails of Hilary’s may tip the tables in Trump’s favor. Wonder who else’s names are included in those e-mails that will be dragged down with her. Her campaign manager put in her resignation. Who will abandon ship next? Be interesting.

That is our only chance to become great again. I don’t see Hilliary leading in that direction. God is the reason we were great, and He is the only one who can make us great again.

          July 25, 2016 at 12:18 am

          We can’t lay claim to 2 Chron. 7:14. It was given in Soloman’s day obviously for a particular circumstances or time period. It did not apply in the days of Isaiah 6 nor for 3 (?) times in Jeremiahs day, when God told him not to bother to pray that He would not hear Jeremiah. In other words it was too late for repentance to avert judgment. There is much reason to believe that America is at that point also. We need to pray for revival in the churches before praying for revival in America. I doubt that there will be revival in America.
          Churches are in decline, not just in numbers but spiritually. They are becoming apostate. They are over looking sin and placing Sodomites in pulpits. Pulpits are where you should expect much of the edification of the body of Christ to come from. Children will see the preachers as role models. Putting potential pedophiles in pulpits is putting a stumbling block before children. It is idiotic.

        If you’re referring to Trump, he’s scared the globalists s***less, because he is VERY familiar with their plans, tactics, tricks, and methodologies – which makes him far more informed than, say, YOU.

    July 24, 2016 at 11:18 am

    With everything said about Donald Trump it is to be noted that that the American people are tired of the blue blood Republicans . They want someone who they can trust and who has nothing to gain except helping America off it’s knees.. Someone who doesn’t need millions of dollars trying to destroy his opponent. His opponent will destroy herself is she has not done already done . Many Americans both Democrats and Independents will see and understand who is better for this country . A winner or a person who reputation and an accomplished liar who has only the interested in having the Clinton name as President again come hell or high water. Once was enough.
    We have a mess in this country and most of committed to Obama and the Democrats and yes with the help of a lot of Republicans. These Republicans will be a dying breed as time goes on. They for the most part of those who opposed Trump are like little kids who didn’t get their way and now are crying and still licking their wounds of defeat. It is time to Make American Great Again.

    It is my opinion Mr. Trump would help the economy. I am sure that we as US (born citizens) would get the benefits we are entitled to, instead of giving it all to the Mexicans crossing the border. we need a change to this. we have worked hard all our lives not to be able to qualify for anything because we are not Mexicans.

    I do not believe our economy is salvageable at this point, but the demise of the dollar will certainly be better managed by Trump and he is the only sane choice offered at this very critical time in our history. Most folks haven’t a clue, regarding how close we are from going over the proverbial cliff, into a deep economical depression, caused by The Fed printing money 24 – 7, in order to create the illusion of prosperity. The stock markets are in a huge bubble and we know what happens when the bubble pops. It will happen and it will happen soon… no matter who sits in the oval office.

      We were founded on principals based on truth, morals, liberty. Truth stands alone. The greatest document ever written by Man- is God inspired. No other country has it. That’s why we MUST PRAY that God takes Donald Trump hand & guides it along the path of TRUTH, MORALITY, LIBERTY. It’s already in our Constitution. We just need a LEADER who will impliment all of it. Set the Tone, set the Good Example, set the Pace, Finish the Job. The Buck stops here! There is no place else to go. We are the ones to set the example- There is no place else to go!
      The Spirit of our Founding Fathers is on the line. GOD rules all. Fall in line with the word of God & prosper. You will witness History in the making. Again. God Bless America! Land that I Love. Stand beside Her & Guide Her.

    Frankly, I once voted – against my family’s standing knowledge that all voting is a rigged deal, and the politicians are more interested in popularity than in honesty. Anyway, we’re all affected by those sad people who sit in the banksters’ government offices of commerce. This nation has not been free, of “we the People” nor honest in any way about who runs it since its beginning, as the new Constitution was taken to England for Parliament to approve or change before it was placed into use by American slaves.

    Parliament changed it to place their authority above American slaves, and Washington, District of Columbia was born, a pure English Colony, governed by – Parliament.

    We the Sheeple believe — anything.

    In The Donald’s case, the banksters of Ten Downing Street may have over-estimated the ire that their pets, nobama and Hitlery, caused in even the doofuz minds of idiot Democrats across this hapless nation. If We the Sheeple are really as Irate at the duo, then the Ten Downing Street ruling thugs may have to backtrack a little as they reorganize their takeover of this has been nation to again openly enslave We the Sheeple.

    But, the one thing that keeps the banksters from turning America into a third world dumpsite is wealth. The entire American enterprise product will go down the drain if these Ten Downing Street charlatans fail to maintain the super idiot confidence in their monoPLOY of American governance. This insidious confidence game funds their entire global take down objective. as the American Sheeple willingly bow to the god of commerce and contrived wealth that America is now.

    This said, The Trump may be a real gentleman, but if the Ancient Record’s depicting him as “winner” then Hitlery “Stealing” the idiot’s seat in the White-wash House is true – and the Ancient Record NEVER is wrong, We the Sheeple have little joy that lasts in His “win.”

    To make We the Sheeple great, the entire nation has to forsake the immoral track that is the reason for my family NOT voting. If the nation fails this, and how would such idiots bent on self-pleasures possibly waken to see their shame?, then America is to fail with bloodshed unimaginable.

    It’s Man’s legacy.

    Go figure.

We need to elect Supreme Court Justices that up hold the law not someone who thinks they have the right to create laws. All of this Mr Trump has addressed and more. Our military, our personal safety by securing our borders and more. We do not need someone to close down jobs, no matter what they are, we need job growth. We need to be energy independent. This is true America, not some country that wants to apologize for protecting the entire world!!!!!!! We need to fight terrorism. We need to lead again. There is no such thing as leading from behind. You lose being behind every time. Please pray for our country and our potentially elected leaders. We need to get out of this corruption, quickly!!!!!

We need to band together as AMERICANS, like AMERICANS used to and make the decision that needs to be made for the betterment of this Country. It is obvious to me just by looking over the past eight years that we have not accomplished anything but racial discord – taking us backward in all the progress we had made. We have Police Officers being targeted and killed in our streets. We have Radical Islamic Terrorists roaming the Earth and creating havoc wherever they go and their destination is OUR nation. What plan does Obama and Clinton have for these situations? Trump has outlined his solutions to these problems and the urgency of which they need to be handled. SO, people of America, are you ready to stand together and vote for someone who CARES about our Country or the other alternative and keep sinking this great place we call AMERICA. STAND TALL AND VOTE TRUMP. HE IS OUR ONLY WAY OUT OF THE HELL ON EARTH THAT Clinton wants to lead us to.

Isn’t it irritating to hear an educated man use such poor syntax, speak in fragments, change the subject, often in mid-sentence, etc. And one of his family should buy him a thesaurus as a present. I wish I had a dime for every time he uses “terrible,” disaster,” and so forth. And does he have to boast at every opportunity about how rich he is and how he easily defeated the large field of his fellow Republicans vying for the nomination, and extol his huge poll numbers?
    And why does he have to make up derogatory nicknames for his competitors? Children do that. Might he do the same for Putin?

This is dangerous thinking and, if continued by many, will lead us down a very dark road indeed. I can just as easily say he is of the devil, come to tempt us to Satan and our destruction. Now you can ask: did an imp come and tell me that? Wake up, there are many solidly religious people in America who are not born again, and you insult us and our beliefs when you write such foolish things. Just as I did to you here. And, most possibly, turn many undecided, but not born again, away from Trump. Is this what you want?
        There was only one anointed one, gone for two thousand years. How would you treat Him if He came here today and decided to run for President? And told you to turn the other cheek. Not to mention practicing His religion which was Judaism.

      In my lifetime, there has yet to be a presidential candidate that delivered what he promised once he got in office.

      It’s like the politician who went to hell and was shown 3 fates, all horrible, but the first wasn’t as bad as the other two, so he took the first. The day after he got there, things changed for the worse, and he said “What happened?” The devil told him “Well, yesterday we were campaigning…”

There are so many do-nothing politicians in DC that are just there for a ride on the bandwagon of about 15 politicians who have been there for ages, know everyone, the ins & outs, professional politicians and have all the clout that pull the strings and if you don’t go along with the ‘go ole boys’ you’ll never be able to do anything.. I saw it when I was in DC and in Calif. where I was involved in the Young Dems & switched to the Yound Rep.; even was a delegate. Was so disgusted with them, all most of them wanted to do was party and chase women. Reagan cleaned house a little in Calif.; hope Trump will do same as i don’t think he tolerates incompetent people. Its time to make congress work for us. This pocket padding got to stop. Things have to change drastically and I think Trump can do it and not put up with all that B.S. our leaders have been lying to us about.. It definitely is time for America to get tough and to take care of our country first and the citizens in it. Sounds like he has common sense and know whats best for us; can’t say that for many of the other politicians. Usually I’m a 3rd party supporter as I don’t like the way both parties are opposing each other all the time and can’t seem to work together. Hope he wins.

Know in advance the up-to-date location of your voting place (voting precinct). Carry in your possession a photo ID together with your voter registration card when you go to vote. On that great day you will hold Tremendous Power in your hands…….more power than any weapon you can imagine.

    Here in South Africa, things are very grim indeed. But it is very interesting to read of the feelings of right-thinking Americans… It has been a long time coming. Somewhere in the correspondence above, someone said something about the dreadful Germans. I just want to comment that Adolf Hitler has been blamed for just about every possible thing under the sun, BUT he successfully got his country off the international banking system (as did Japan) and the BIG MONEY that pull all the strings could not have this, and arranged for Germany to be Attacked from Poland.. Also to digress a little further, the story of the 6 million Jews who were murdered in the concentration camps IS JUST THAT… a propaganda story. If you are sufficiently interested, read Revisionist literature.

      Scarlett-
      Germans dressed up corpses in Polish military uniforms and staged an “attack” which justified their Blitzkrieg through Poland.

      It’s called a “false flag.” Americans have experienced dozens of them in the past 15-odd years, and many before that, starting with the sinking of the Maine in Havana harbor(used as the excuse to start the Spanish-American war), on up to the Gulf of Tonkin incident used to justify starting the Vietnam war…and. of course, 9/11. Anyone who believes the gov’t narrative on that is either an idiot or scared.

      What got Jesse Ventura banned from CCMSM was his statement that “all wars begin with a false flag.” It’s true, but the PtB don’t want most people to be hip.

    First of all Trump is a racist. He’s an old racist back from the 50s. Then who in the hell is Mager Edward’s brother? I don’t remember him from any civil rights movement.
    Golf is a wimps game.
    George Bush nerely got this country in a depression. Trump will succeed where Bush failed.
    Bill Marr called them out, and Trump couldn’t take it. Shows you how thin-skinned he is.
    He’d probably shoot himself if he knew what I thought of him. Trump don’t care about anybody but Trump.
    He and Pres. Obama could not be golfing buddies because Trump doesn’t like black people.
    Oh yeah, from the comments I see from this web sight, sounds like everybody on here is white. Am I right?

      I am glad to be a Trump supporter . As a 73 year old mother of 4, grandmother of 11, and I have 4 great-grandchildren. I am a retired teacher of 28 years and lack only a thesis having my master’s. Unfortunately, diabetes and severe migraines shut down my teaching and finishing my master degree. When I hit the gap in medicare my insulin alone cost 1100 dollars a month, plus I take numerous other medications. I want mister Trump to make America great again, and I believe he can. I believe he will get our social security paid back what is owed or establish a better program., and get additional medicinal aid for seniors, and be an honest caring president. God help us if we get Hilliary and He will have to.

      Teejay-
      No, you’re not right…
      …not in the head, either, it seems.

      i’ve seen people of all races post here, though none have made a big deal about it: i’ve seen Hispanics, Asians, Blacks, Indians, and yes, whites, too – wouldn’t surprise me if there had been at least one Native American, as well.

      Haven’t seen any Muslims post here, though a few democrats have dared the waters from time to time…

    My greatest concern is a “rigged” election,,,,,,,,,seen it before. I’m also very concerned about the welfare of Mr. Trump His only legacy might be that he “made it so far as speaking up for the Silent Majority. I’m really concerned.
