21/ It's not all crypto, though. Another big factor: Trump's overseas licensing deals.
January 6th once looked ruinous for the Trump brand. “He has done permanent damage to the Trump name and image,” real-estate analyst Kevin Brown told me after the riot on the Capitol.

2/ This question appears to be based on the change in Trump's net worth increase from the fall of 2024, when he was elected, to the fall of 2025.
Over that year, we estimated his fortune increased from $4.3 billion to $7.3 billion, a jump of $3 billion.

4/ What happened between early March 2024 and the fall of 2024 that drove his net worth up by $2 billion in a matter of months?
The president brought the Trump Media and Technology Group, the company that operates Truth Social, to the public markets. Trump fans went nuts.

6/ I explained all of this in a cover story for Forbes that fall. The quote on the cover was from Trump himself: "Politics is great because you don't spend any money. You can't make a bad deal." forbes.com/sites/danalexande…

3/ But that timeframe actually *minimizes* the extent of Trump's political profiteering. To get the full picture, we'l start on March 8, 2024, when Forbes estimated Trump's net worth at $2.3 billion, or FIVE BILLION less than he would be worth about a year and a half later.

1/ I'll explain exactly how this happened because I'm the person at Forbes who calculates these numbers.
This is going to take some unraveling, but here's a spoiler: The president's answer here is nonsense.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Republican Senator Ron Johnson just went on Fox News and admitted there is RAMPANT corruption within the Trump Administration. Every American needs to see this.

BREAKING: SWEET KARMA! Democrat Scott Colom, who is about to win the Mississippi Senate seat, only ran after his MAGA opponent stopped him from obtaining a lifetime federal judge position!
This is one of the most glorious backfires in American history...
Back in November of 2022, President Biden nominated Colom to the federal district court in northern Mississippi. He received support from the state's senior senator, Republican Roger Wicker.
But Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, who Colom is now leading by 1,764 in the vote count from Tuesday, refused to support the nomination. In fact, she blocked the Senate from even considering him by withholding her blue slip, an old Senate custom that lets one home-state senator veto a judge.
She defended her indefensible move by insisting that he couldn't be trusted with such power because of past support for transgender rights. In reality, she was just pandering to the racist MAGA base by blocking a Black Democrat.
But if she hadn't blocked him, Colom would be a judge right now. Instead, he's poised to take Hyde-Smith's seat, flipping a seat that a Democrat hasn't been able to win since 1972 in a state that handed Trump 61% of its vote in 2024.
While the race has not yet been called, if Colom maintains this lead, as he seems likely to do, the seat is his.
Please ❤️ and share if you can't wait to see Colom in the Senate!

Breaking news this afternoon: Susie Wiles is out and Stephen Miller is in as the new White House Chief of Staff.
Trump clearly did not learn his lesson from Tuesday's electoral drubbing. The voters rejected the type of policy and direction that Stephen Miller embodies, and Trump rewards him with a promotion.
Buckle up, the next two years are not going to be easy.
Just Iceman retweeted
Donald Trump just promoted one of the most vile thugs to ever slither into the Oval Office.
This is an insult to every American who voted for change on Tuesday.
Stephen Miller cooked up the sadistic mass deportation regime that ripped apart families and trampled basic civil rights. Innocent people are dead because of him.
Voters rejected his cruelty and extremism. This is sick.
"I am pleased to announce that Mr. Stephen Miller, the current Deputy Chief of Staff of the Trump Administration, and one of my most trusted advisors, will become the Chief of Staff starting Monday, November 9, 2026. Susie Wiles, who has done an outstanding job, will be moving over to the Trump Political Operation. I want to thank her for her service as Chief of Staff — She has done a great job!" - President Donald J. Trump 🇺🇸

I spent two years working with Stephen Miller.
His appointment as White House chief of staff is among the most dangerous personnel decisions in the history of our republic.
I say that without reservation.

DEMOCRATS MUST DELIVER
Trumpism grew out of the failure of the Democratic Party to stand with working families. That cannot continue. At a time of unprecedented income and wealth inequality and declining faith in democracy, Democrats MUST deliver. No excuses.
- Medicare for All
- A $20-an-hour minimum wage
- The PRO Act
- A wealth tax on billionaires, which would pay for universal childcare, free public colleges and universities, and a massive housing program
- An AI data center moratorium
- Bringing ICE under control and comprehensive immigration reform
- REAL campaign finance reform

That fact that Elon Musk would call James Talarico "pure evil" and a "creep" and said Russell Brand is "not evil" should tell you exactly the type of person musk is.

BREAKING: LOL! Thomas Massie turns his own camera on a Fox Digital reporter pestering him about his ex and an alleged Boebert affair – “I heard you like gay porn. Is that true? ”
Rep. Thomas Massie just delivered one of the wildest and funniest mic-drop moments of the year.
Walking on the street, Massie was approached by Fox News Digital reporter Nicholas Ballasy who asked about allegations from his ex-girlfriend including claims of an NDA and an alleged affair with House colleague Lauren Boebert.
Massie politely responded that the allegations were all false, twice. He asked Ballasy, “When did [Fox] become a tabloid?
Then he got an idea, he turned on his phone to play the journalist with a question of his own.
“So let me ask you, I heard that you like gay porn. Is that true? I just want to give you a chance to respond.”
“I’m not going to get into that,” Ballasy stammered, twice, later saying “Of course I don’t like it,” to which Massie quipped “That’s not what I heard!”
Tee hee!
As far as Republicans go, we will miss Massie, who was primaried out of Congress by Trump. He’s one of the few who actually pushes back against the worst parts of the MAGA machine, demands transparency on the Epstein files, and refuses to be a spineless soldier in Trump's imaginary army.
He just proved he’s a funny guy too.

Democrat Eileen Laubacher has defeated Incumbent Republican Lauren Boebert in the CO-04 U.S. House Election.
This is a flip from 🔴 to 🔵.

This is former USN Admiral Eileen Laubacher, I say former because in his purge of senior military ( mostly female) Hegseth fired her.
Yesterday she beat Lauren Boebert in the election and is now in the congress.
She will be on the select committee to interrogate him
