Trump’s Businesses Earned $2.4 Billion During His Term

July 19, 2021 · 3:38 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Forbes estimates that Donald Trump’s businesses — which he refused to divest while serving as president — earned about $2.4 billion of revenue during his single term.

“If not for the pandemic, there would have been even more. Trump’s business was hauling in about $650 million annually during the first three years of his presidency. But in 2020, revenues plunged to an estimated $450 million as Covid infected the business.”
