I spent five months tracking every Trump corruption story. Here’s what I found.

Democrats have worked to contrast economic hardship with President Trump's surging net worth and his family's lucrative business dealings.

As prices keep rising, more of the president’s supporters are asking what happened to the economic good times he promised It is no great revelation that Donald Trump is enriching himself as president. He raked in $2.2bn in 2025, with his position and his personal interests frequently overlapping. Yet this week’s poll finding that 34% of Republicans (and 66% of all American voters) think that he is using his position to make himself rich merits attention .

Vice President Vance’s role as President Trump’s chief defender poses a growing challenge as the administration faces mounting perceptions of inside dealing and corruption.
