So here we are again, staring at the cosmic chaos of a Trump-sized money hole in the fabric of presidential history—did you know Donald Trump’s empire has siphoned off at least $1.4 billion during his second term? It’s like the stars themselves conspired to fuel his flair for the extreme—from a tsunami of executive orders to territorial power plays and some truly apocalyptic threats. With the Sun currently marching through Capricorn, the sign of ambition and accumulation, maybe it’s no surprise that financial ascendancy and empire-building have been front and center. But here’s a twist worth pondering: can the whirlwind of political theatrics and business savvy really coexist without a hitch? As a new review by The New York Times reveals, the Trumps have turned the presidency into a multi-billion-dollar cash register, and that’s probably just the tip of the iceberg. What’s your take—astrology or savvy hustle? Let’s dive deep. LEARN MORE.
The White House has responded to a review which broke down how Donald Trump’s empire has amassed ‘at least $1.4 billion’ since his second term as President of the United States.
He’s known as a man who enjoys pushing things to the extremes, whether it be the number of executive orders he signed as soon as he was inaugurated for a second term, tossing threats out to take over other territories left, right and center or barely taking a breath before threatening to wipe Iran off the ‘face of this Earth’.
And Donald Trump has apparently made no exceptions when it comes to sucking as much money as he possibly can out of his latest presidential stint, a new report has revealed.
A review by the editorial board of The New York Times using analysis from multiple news organizations has revealed how Trump ‘used the office of the presidency to make at least $1.4 billion’.
And that’s an ‘underestimate’ too, the piece noting ‘some of his profits remain hidden from public view’. But how have the Trumps monopolized so much of his presidency?

Well, since he was re-elected, Trump’s name has been licensed overseas, raking in a reported $23 million, according to Reuters.
The Trump family have also reportedly earned a whopping $33 million from the president’s golf clubs. Not only that, but Trump has buttered up other countries to get a sweeter deal to expand his property empire.
For example, in Vietnam, the Trump empire has just amassed a $1.5 billion golf complex outside of Hanoi after backtracking on the severity of the tariffs it threatened to impose.
The Trump Organization is currently reported as chasing hotels and office towers from everywhere to Oman to Riyadh in Saudi Arabia, deals of which have cashed in millions.
And that’s not ignoring Qatar’s gifting of a $400 million jet to Trump to use as Air Force One while he’s president. However, it doesn’t come with a return label, even after he’s left the White House.
And that’s only a fraction of what the Trump family have raked in from their crypto assets.

Last year, the Trump administration made a big push towards cryptocurrency, with the President aiming to make America the ‘crypto capital of the world’.
According to Reuters, a pitch was made to a Chinese businessman and his associates to buy at least $20 million in World Liberty tokens, owned by the Trump family, as ‘governance tokens’.
However, in June last year, the Trump family pot actually ended up increasing by even more than pitched, $100 million of World Liberty tokens bought by a company, Aqua1 Foundation, said to be based in the United Arab Emirates, with a spokesperson for the foundation telling Reuters that their investment in World Liberty tokens ‘was a commercial decision consistent with its focus on advancing regulated, scalable digital-asset ecosystems’.
By the end of the first half of 2026, Reuters reports Trump crypto ventures amassed a staggering $802 million – more than $463 million coming from sales of World Liberty tokens alone and then $336 from sales of a Trump meme coin, $TRUMP.
And if that wasn’t enough yet, along came the idea of an Amazon documentary about Melania Trump.

Melania, via her agent, pitched the idea of an Amazon film about herself in which she’d not only star but also executive-produce, The Wall Street Journal reports.
The First Lady reportedly scooped up a huge paycheck of $40 million, which is said to be released on the streaming platform and in cinemas in ‘the second half of 2025’.
As well as a film, a docuseries of two or three episodes was also reported to be part of the deal.
Amazon said in a statement: “Prime Video will be sharing more details on the project as filming progresses and release plans are finalized. We are excited to share this truly unique story with our millions of customers around the world.”
However, what exactly the project entails or what it’s even called hasn’t been made clear yet.

From X, Meta and YouTube to ABC News and Paramount, multiple companies have been forced to pay out to Trump.
The US president previously slammed Paramount for its editing of a 2024 Kamala Harris CBS interview, claiming it was to ‘tip the scales in favour of the Democratic party’.
Paramount agreed to pay the $16 million settlement, though they added: “The settlement does not include a statement of apology or regret.”
They also said that the money would be allocated to Trump’s future presidential library or any of his charitable causes, and wouldn’t be paid ‘directly or indirectly’ to him.
In response to a request for comment, WH spokesperson Taylor Rogers told UNILAD: “The media’s continued attempts to fabricate conflicts of interest are irresponsible and reinforce the public’s distrust in what they read.
“The President is and always has been motivated solely by what is best for the American people.”
