Donald Trump Makes Announcement At Trump Tower
People:Donald Trump
In an announcement made earlier this week, real-estate mogul and entrepreneur extraordinaire Donald Trump announced his intention to run for president in the next election.
Donald Trump's entry into the presidential run 2016 is his first and comes amid the candidacy of several conservative leaders who have expressed their interest to be the next president of the United States.
The "Donald Trump for presidential run 2016" campaign is the TV reality star's first foray into politics though commentators say Trump has flirted with the idea for a long time.
"So, ladies and gentlemen, I am officially running for president of the United States, and we are going to make our country great again," Trump told the crowd at the Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York, CNN reported.
"Sadly the American dream is dead. But if I get elected president I will bring it back bigger and better and stronger than ever before."
"Donald Trump for presidential run 2016" campaign has adopted the slogan, "Make America Great Again," and his recent speech has already taken a few jabs at current Republican candidates and the lame duck president, Barack Obama.
The Trump Tower was not just a backdrop for the Donald Trump for presidential run 2016, but it is also an embodiment of American success. Trump's iconic landmarks and businesses continue to impress the American public with a flamboyant and widespread real estate empire. Trump resembles the American work-ethic and capitalist mentality that analyst say is badly needed in a post-recession era.
Donald Trump's business assoicates said it was his confidence that make him stand out as a success.
"He has the guts," Roberto Bezjon, a Trump Organization board member told CNN. "He's a straight shooter."
