Wall Street Journal: Trump family ‘cashing in on the presidency in big and sketchy ways’

The Wall Street Journal’s editorial board published a Wednesday op-ed slamming President Trump and his family for “cashing in on the presidency” after his financial disclosures showed the president brought in $2 billion last year alone.

Trump’s crypto venture, effectively managed by the Trump Organization, reaped in more than $526.8 million in proceeds from tokens sold by World Liberty Financial.

The benefits weren’t exclusive to Trump’s sons Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. but also helped support the family of special envoy Steve Witkoff, including his son, Zach Witkoff. The Witkoff family co-founded the decentralized finance platform and crypto business in question.
