Trump says he does not take a presidential salary

Donald Trump says he does not receive a presidential salary and says he has substantial financial resources. He was responding to CBS News questions about the estimated nearly $3 billion increase in his wealth since his return to the White House, during an interview broadcast on 8 November.

Donald Trump said he does not receive a presidential salary during an interview with CBS News programme 60 Minutes, broadcast on Sunday 8 November, when he was questioned about the nearly $3 billion increase in his wealth since his return to the White House in January 2025. The US president said he has substantial financial resources and spends very little time on his personal finances, reports Tribune Online.

Asked about the increase in his wealth, Trump cited gains in the stock market and said his son supervised his money. The interview also covered World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency company owned with his family, whose role in the increase in his wealth was subsequently highlighted in an analysis published on 9 November by PolitiFact, according to Tribune Online.
