Claim
On 1 July, Trump responded to questions about his crypto earnings, saying he does not invest his own money himself and that professional fund managers handle it.
“1 जुलाई को ट्रंप ने क्रिप्टो बिजनेस से सबसे ज्यादा कमाई पर अपनी सफाई दी... उन्होंने कहा है कि वह अपना पैसा खुद इन्वेस्ट नहीं करते बल्कि उनके पास बड़े-बड़े फंड मैनेजर्स हैं जो उनके पैसे को मैनेज करते हैं।”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Multiple wire and mainstream reports confirm that on July 1, 2026, at Joint Base Andrews, Trump responded to questions about the large crypto-related income in his newly released financial disclosure by saying he does not personally invest his money — that funds/'big institutions' manage it via what he called a 'blind account' and that he never speaks to the people running it. The anchor's paraphrase ('he doesn't invest his own money himself; big fund managers manage it') matches Trump's actual remarks and the date.
