4) Donald Trump almost became bankrupt, became a billionaire and won the US Presidential election
In the 1980s, Donald Trump was an up and coming businessman estimated to be worth $200m and was named in Forbes’ list of wealthy individuals. However, he suffered losses between 1990 and 1995 and was nowhere to be seen on that list.
When Liverpool last won the league title, the US president was George HW Bush. Since then, each president has served two terms after winning the quadrennial elections. Bill Clinton won in 1992 and 1996, George W Bush (George HW Bush’s son) won in 2000 and 2004 while Barack Obama won the election in 2008 and 2012.
During this time, Trump slowly made his way back into the game and, despite a few failures (such as his businesses going bankrupt), he soon became worth close to $4.1 billion according to Forbes. He now sits in the Oval Office as the 45th President of the United States – the ninth presidential term since Liverpool won the league.
