Fact Check: Joseph Gordon-Levitt Claims Trump Is Not a ‘Self-Made Businessman’

CLAIM: Joseph Gordon-Levitt claimed former President Donald Trump is not a “self-made” or honest businessman, but a “conman.”

VERDICT: Partly False.

While Trump did inherit some money and received loans from his father as he was starting out, he built his business into what it is today.

Trump’s father, Fred Trump owned a real estate business, Trump Management, which is now known as The Trump Organization.
