Donald Trump is the legendary American success story. Trump started from a humble beginning and he has worked hard to achieve great success in his life. America was built on the foundation of hard work. Trump will work hard as President to strengthen American economy. Trump is a proven stong business leader and he is the best candidate to lead America as President. 

I hope you are joking about both bolded parts.  Trump's dad was rich and set Trump up.  He has had many bankruptcies and ran a scam called Trump University.  He also ran the USFL into the ground by supporting the USFL move from a spring schedule to the fall to try and get a merger with the NFL.  The USFL was actually doing good with a spring schedule but he wanted the merger to happen asap and in turn ruined the USFL.  His dreams of owning a NFL team through a USFL - NFL merger ruined an entire league.

"Trump’s claim that he built a real-estate fortune out of a “small” $1 million loan is simply not credible. He benefited from numerous loans and loan guarantees, as well as his father’s connections, to make the move into Manhattan. His father also set up lucrative trusts to provide steady income. When Donald Trump became overextended in the casino business, his father bailed him out with a shady casino-chip loan—and Trump also borrowed $9 million against his future inheritance. While Trump asserts “it has not been easy for me,” he glosses over the fact that his father paved the way for his success — and that his father bailed him out when he got into trouble."
