President Donald Trump said Wednesday that his income has surged since he became president because of improved conditions in financial markets.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know why I\u2019m profiting, because the stock market\u2019s going up,\u201d Trump told reporters as he prepared to board Air Force One, adding that Americans\u2019 investments in their 401(k) retirement savings plans have increased in his second term. \u201cEverybody\u2019s profiting. \u2026 Thank you, President Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n

The president\u2019s income topped $2 billion<\/a> in 2025, boosted by cryptocurrency, digital tokens and related partnerships, according to financial disclosures released Tuesday. He also took in more money from his golf clubs and resorts.<\/p>

His income appears to have increased substantially since he was sworn in as president for a second time in January 2025, prompting Democrats to launch investigations over whether he is profiting off his presidency. In his 2024 financial disclosure, filed a year ago, Trump reported income of over $600 million<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Trump distanced himself from his investments Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cI purposely, I never speak to any of the people that run the money,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n
