  • Ladies and gentlemen, I am officially running for president of the United States.

  • And we are going to make our country great again.

  • The 16th of June, 2015,

  • the day Trump announced he would be running to become the Republican nominee for president.

  • What we didn't know then was that Trump would go on to become one of the most important figures of the next decade running for president three times winning twice and losing once.

  • And his journey from that announcement after he famously rode down a golden escalator in Trump Tower through to winning the Republican nomination is the subject of the next two episodes of Old Newscast.

  • And for those of you who don't know,

  • Old Newscast is where we look back at some moments which have proved to be turning points in recent history.

  • And we talk to people who either covered them as journalists or were involved in them in some way.

  • We have done plenty of episodes before,

  • ranging from the fall of the Berlin Wall to the expensive scandal in Westminster.

  • And just to set the scene for these old newscasts in 2015,

  • President Obama is coming to the end of his second term in the White House and the frontrunners to fight the 2016 election for many are Bush and Clinton.

  • That's Hillary Clinton for the Democrats and Jeb Bush,

  • brother of George W and son of George HW for the Republicans.

  • So why did Donald Trump decide to run?

  • And how was he able to win against all the odds?

  • That will be the subject of the next two episodes of All Newscast.

  • Newscast.

  • Newscast from the BBC.
