They all know how to play him
Yes, Trump is really being played!! What an idiotic statement.
A lengthy report by the New Yorker last August tallied Trump's financial gains since his 2025 inauguration at $3.4 billion US.
More recently, updated trackers put the wealth amassed by Trump, his family and his companies even higher.
"Ventures launched since Trump’s re-election generated at least $4 billion [US] in proceeds and paper wealth for the family as of December, according to company statements and securities filings," reports the Wall Street Journal's graphic depicting the Trump family's expanding business empire.
Forbes Magazine's latest estimate of Trump's net worth suggests he has added $4.2 billion US to his holdings since 2024.
Democrats on the House Oversight Committee have published what they call the "Trump family digital grift wealth tracker," which, as of Thursday, claimed the family has amassed additional wealth totalling $5.1 billion US.
The trackers all indicate that cryptocurrency ventures are responsible for the biggest share of Trump's financial gains.
