Biden and Trump: Some old snaps and anecdotes


 

Joe Biden 'remarried' to schoolteacher Jill Jacobs, with whom he had a child, Ashley.
Biden established himself on the Senate Judiciary Committee, and began to build a national profile. In 1987, he launched his first go at the US presidency, but withdrew after he was accused of plagiarising a speech by the then leader of the British Labour Party, Neil Kinnock. (BBC)




Trump moved into the entertainment sector, snapping up a clutch of beauty pageants in 1996: Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss Teen USA. In his personal life, after splitting with Ivana he married actress Marla Maples in 1993.

In 2003, Mr Trump fronted a new reality TV show that played to his reputations as both a businessman and a media personality. Called The Apprentice, the programme featured contestants competing for a shot at a management job in Mr Trump's commercial empire.


He hosted the show for 14 seasons, and claimed in a financial disclosure form that he had been paid a total of $213m by the network during the show's run.


Meanwhile, in 2005, he married his current wife, Melania Knauss, a Yugoslavian-born model.
