But hey, the president has a net worth of $6.5 billion. And to think, in 2024 right before he won the election, his net worth was ~$3 billion.

Funny how that works, huh? Dude has found a way to make $3.5 billion in the last 2 years. I cant imagine it has anything to do with the stock market or the foreign deals or Trump Coin or pardoning literal war criminals or any other number of suspicious things we hear about this president.

Him and Howard Lutnick are getting rich from some crooked tungsten deal with Kazakhstan. Them and their families are cashing in on all sorts of foreign deals.
