In a 1984 New York Time Magazine cover article, Donald Trump had said he would not wish to run for the office of the President of the United States. A little over 30 years later, the Republican candidate has just pulled off a historic upset against Hillary Clinton to win the bitterly contested election.
Of course, that was not the only time that the real estate mogul was asked whether he would ever consider running for President. During an interview in 1988 on David Letterman's show, Trump would respond to the question with a characteristic “I don’t know... Do you want to see the United States become a winner?” (Watch below)
It is too early to say whether America came out a "winner" in this election or not, but Trump has made it to the Oval Office despite most polls and projections pointing to the contrary.
The fourth child of Fred Trump, a New York real estate tycoon, Trump attended the New York Military Academy, which he was sent to at the age of 13. Media reports on Trump reveal that he was sent to the military academy because of behavior problems at his previous school.
