GQ Magazine May 1984 (Vol. 54 #5, Donald Trump)

What's It Worth?
The May 1984 issue of GQ (Gentlemen’s Quarterly) featured a then up-and-coming Donald Trump in a spotlight article that contributed to his early rise as a public figure beyond real estate. This was one of the earliest major lifestyle magazine profiles to frame Trump not just as a businessman, but as a symbol of 1980s ambition, style, and wealth.

Key Details:

Cover: Donald Trump did not appear on the cover. Instead, the issue followed GQ’s tradition of featuring fashion-oriented male models during that era.

Article Title: The Trump profile inside was titled “The Expanding Empire of Donald Trump” (or similar wording).

Focus: The article highlighted Trump’s burgeoning real estate projects, including the Grand Hyatt Hotel, Trump Tower, and his aspirations for Atlantic City casinos. It painted him as a young, aggressive mogul on the move.

Tone: GQ portrayed Trump as charismatic and confident, with a flair for publicity and a taste for luxury that aligned perfectly with the decade’s "greed is good" ethos.

Cultural Significance:

At the time, Trump was in his late 30s and not yet the household name he would become. This article marked one of the earliest moments the national media began treating him as a celebrity entrepreneur rather than just a developer. GQ's attention helped cement his image as a brand in the making.
