Donald  John Trump's Birthday
 

  
     

Donald Trump is a television personality, chairman and president of The Trump Organization, a real estate developer, and the founder
of Trump Entertainment, which operates several casinos. He is obsessed with publicity and self-promotion, and produced and hosted
his reality television shows, The Apprentice and Celebrity Apprentice. He is also chairman of the bored of the birther movement for
promoting the birther controversy over President Obama birth records over, and over, and over ad nauseum.  He is also the most boring
narcissist of all time.

Many real estate developers pay Trump to market their properties and be the public face for their projects. For that reason, Trump does
not own many of the buildings that display his name, such as Trump Towers. Trump was caught in the 2008 financial crisis as sales for
his Trump International Hotel and Tower in Chicago were lagging and he failed to pay a $40 million loan to Deutsche Bank.

He is popularly known as "The Donald," a nickname given to him by the media after his ex-wife Ivana,referred to him as such in an
interview.  He is also known for his catchphrase " You're fired." His distinctive comb-over hair style was mocked by Rosie
O'Donnell on The View and resulted in Trump attacking Rosie and a subsequent series of squabbles that redefined tabloid news.

In its October 7, 2007, Forbes 400 issue, "Acreage Aces," Forbes valued Trump's wealth to $3.0 billion.   There is one recipe that
celebrates his financial resurgence after his famous creditor-led bailout. This is also reported to be Rosie O'Donnell's favorite recipe
and she especially enjoys slitting the skin and tying up the legs. Enjoy some newly birthed Roast Capitalist Pig on The Donald's birthday
which we suggest pairing with the TV film Trump Unauthorized (2005).

    Place the pig on a large roasting pan and pour the reserved marinade over the pig. Place the pig in the oven.
