How Trump is Profiting Money From Presidency ? - Donald Trump's Unofficial Wealth Reveled | USA News #trump #donaldtrump #donaldtrumpnews For years, questions have surrounded how much Donald Trump and his family enriched themselves through the presidency. Entering office under financial strain—owing roughly $500 million in fraud penalties in New York and $88 million to writer E. Jean Carroll—Trump’s fortunes improved dramatically once in power. At Mar-a-Lago, membership fees rose from $100,000 to nearly $1 million, yielding about $125 million in extra profits. He blurred the line between campaign and personal profit, selling MAGA-branded merchandise and launching product lines like Trump watches, sneakers, books, and a Bible, bringing in $27.7 million, while his PAC covered over $100 million in personal legal fees—together totaling about $127.7 million. His D.C. hotel, though accused of corruption, essentially broke even as business and boycotts balanced out. In the Persian Gulf, Jared Kushner raised $2 billion from Saudi Arabia despite lacking private equity experience, ensuring $320 million in fees, while Trump’s family signed deals with Saudi firm Dar al-Arqan across Oman, Dubai, Jeddah, Riyadh, and Doha worth about $105.8 million. Qatar even gifted him a $150 million jet. Abroad, new ventures included a $50 million Vietnamese golf resort deal. Trump also profited from lawsuits and corporate settlements, totaling $91 million, and Melania Trump sold movie rights for $28 million. His Truth Social platform, though financially unstable, still added about $25 million in value. Donald Trump Jr. joined venture capital firm 1789 Capital, with projected earnings near $20 million. The family dove into crypto: NFTs earned $14.4 million, while their company World Liberty Financial pulled in $412.5 million from token sales and $168 million in interest from a $2 billion UAE stablecoin deal, plus $75 million from token purchases—altogether about $243 million. Additional crypto ventures brought another $13 million in Bitcoin mining equipment and $1.3 billion through Trump Media’s Bitcoin holdings. Finally, a Trump family meme coin raised $385 million. Taken together, these streams highlight how the Trump family transformed political power into an unprecedented financial empire.
