The New Yorker: Trump Family Has Made $3.4 Billion from Presidency

HeadlineAug 14, 2025

A new analysis by The New Yorker magazine estimates that the Trump family has raked in at least $3.4 billion through various schemes to profit from the presidency dating back to 2017. Two-thirds of that fortune comes from the Trumps’ various cryptocurrency ventures. New Yorker reporter David Kirkpatrick wrote, “I was struck by the frantic, almost desperate pace of the Trump family’s efforts, as though they’re afraid to miss any opportunity.”
