美国总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)周四在美国消费者新闻与商业频道接受采访时表示，他对自己的商业交易没有任何见解，他说，他的孩子处理他的财务，因为新的财务披露显示，他在重返办公室的第一年赚了20多亿美元。
当被直接问及与他自己的投资有关的潜在利益冲突时，鉴于披露的信息显示他在2025年从加密货币风险投资中赚了14亿美元，特朗普表示他不知道这些风险投资。
同时，他说，“我可能知道这件事。我没有。我的意思是，没有什么不合法的，没有什么不对的。”
特朗普的评论来了遵循参考从美国消费者新闻与商业频道的乔·克南开始美国法典该州行政部门的雇员被禁止“亲自并实质性地参与某一特定的政府事务，该事务将影响他自己的经济利益，以及他在政府之外与之有联系的某些个人的经济利益。”
副总裁和总裁不受本准则约束。
然而，与过去的总统不同，特朗普没有剥离他的持股或将他的资产放在一个盲目的信托中。这导致民主党人长期以来一直质疑潜在的利益冲突，以及特朗普是否正在从总统职位中获利。
“唐纳德·特朗普当选总统的第一年就赚了20多亿美元。共和党人在让你的生活变得更加昂贵的同时，也在让自己变得更加富有。我们必须粉碎腐败文化，”众议院民主党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯在x。
当被问及如果民主党在国会重新掌权，他是否担心围绕他的投资对他进行调查的可能性时，特朗普回应说，他不“做任何与我的业务有关的事情”。
他坚持让他的孩子，特别是埃里克，处理他的投资组合。特朗普说他不和埃里克谈论他的财务状况。
“我不做任何与我的生意无关的事。我的孩子经营它，”他说。
“我赚了一大笔钱，比我想象的还要多。我让人们投资它。特朗普说:“我甚至不跟他们说话，我甚至不知道他们是谁，但这是给像你节目中这样的大公司的。”“我的儿子埃里克处理它。我不和他谈这种事情。我想我会被允许的。我甚至不确定是什么状态，但我不知道。”
当被问及他从自己的加密公司中获得的利润时，总统主要谈论的是美国人参与加密行业的重要性，他的政府正在帮助监管这个行业。
“嗯，我以前来过这里，我在任之前也在那里，但是我看待加密的方式有点不同。我们必须处于顶端，否则中国将接管它，”特朗普说。
特朗普说，鉴于他在政府中的角色，他对他的孩子感到“某种程度上很糟糕”。
“因为每当我的孩子们这样做的时候，如果他们投资股票，或者他们去做建筑，他们做的任何事情，因为总统是如此强大，如此巨大，任何事情，如果他们买了一家纸杯蛋糕公司，嗯，制作纸杯蛋糕的能量，你知道，有点像，我的能源政策怎么样?因此，你们有冲突，”川普告诉美国消费者新闻与商业频道。
“几乎他们做的任何事情，如果他们想买一辆卡车，如果他们想买，你知道，他们买一辆节能卡车，他们有内部消息。所以，从这个意义上来说，这很难。我告诉我的孩子，尽可能远离，但他们也有自己的生活，你知道，”特朗普说。“他们——我们早在我想到逃跑之前就在做生意了。”
特朗普说，他认为他当选的原因之一是因为他的商业背景，但他并不“关心”他的财务状况，因为他有一个“更大的目标”——成为美国总统。
“你知道我为什么不在乎吗?因为我有更大的目标。你知道，这是总统办公室。这是一个比我是否赚钱大得多的目的，”特朗普说。
Trump says his kids handle his investments: There's 'nothing illegal'
President Donald Trump said he doesn't have any insight into his business dealings during an interview on CNBC on Thursday, saying that his children handle his finances as new financial disclosures show he made more than $2 billion in his first year back in office.
Asked directly about potential conflicts of interest related to his own investments, given that the disclosures show he made $1.4 billion from cryptocurrency ventures in 2025, Trump said he didn't know about the ventures.
At the same time, he said, "I could know about it. I didn't. I mean, there's nothing illegal, there's nothing wrong with it."
Trump's comments camefollowing a referencefrom CNBC's Joe Kernen onU.S. codethat states executive branch employees are prohibited from "participating personally and substantially in a particular Government matter that will affect his own financial interests, as well as the financial interests of certain individuals with whom he has ties outside the Government."
Vice presidents and president are not subject to this code.
Unlike past presidents, however, Trump did not divest his holdings or put his assets in a blind trust. That's led to longstanding questions from Democrats about potential conflicts of interest and whether Trump is profiting from the presidency.
"Donald Trump made more than $2 billion during his first year as President. Republicans are enriching themselves while making your life more expensive. We must crush the culture of corruption," House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries posted on X.
Pressed on whether he was worried about the possibility of investigations into him surrounding his investments if Democrats regain power in Congress, Trump responded that he doesn't "do anything having to do with my business."
He maintained his children, specifically Eric, handle his portfolio. Trump said he doesn't talk to Eric about his finances.
"I don't do anything having to do with my business. My kids run it," he said.
"I've made a tremendous amount of money, more than I would have ever thought I would have made. And I let people invest it. I don't even speak to -- I don't even know who they are, but it's given to big firms like on your show all the time," Trump said. "My son Eric handles it. I don't talk to him about things such as this. I think I'd be allowed to. I'm not sure even what the status is, but I don't."
The president, when asked about the profits he made from his crypto companies, instead mostly talked about the importance of Americans participating in the crypto industry -- a sector his administration is helping to regulate.
"Well, I was here before, I was there before I was in office, but the way I view crypto is a little differently. We have to be at the top, otherwise China is going to take it over," Trump said.
Trump said that he feels "badly in a way" for his kids given his role in government.
"Because every time my kids do, if they invest in a stock, or they go and do a building, anything they do, because the presidency is so powerful, so big, everything, if they buy a cupcake company, well, the energy to make the cupcakes is, you know, sort of like, how's my energy policy? So, therefore, you have a conflict," Trump told CNBC.
"Almost anything they do, if they want to buy a truck, if they want to buy, you know, they buy an energy efficient truck, they have inside information. So, it's pretty tough in that sense. I tell my kids, stay away from as much as you can stay away from, but they also have a life, you know," Trump said. "They -- we were doing business long before I ever thought of even running."
Trump said he believes one of the reasons he was elected is because of his business background, but that he doesn't "care" about his finances because he has a "bigger purpose" -- to be the president of the United States.
"You know why I don't care? Because I have a much bigger purpose. You know, this -- this is the Oval Office. It's a much bigger purpose than whether or not I make money," Trump said.
