One characteristic that sets Presidents Reagan and Trump apart from other presidents is their backgrounds in entertainment and media before entering politics. Reagan was a Hollywood actor and president of the Screen Actors Guild, while Trump was a businessman and television personality, best known for hosting ‘The Apprentice’. Their unique experiences have contributed greatly to their particular styles of communication and public engagement. This is not common among many other U.S. Presidents, who typically have backgrounds in law, political office, or military service.
