Claim
Trump's new financial disclosure states that he or companies linked to his family business earned $2 billion in the past year.
“राष्ट्रपति ट्रंप ने अपनी संपत्ति और आय को लेकर नई घोषणा की है... उन्होंने इसमें बताया है कि पिछले एक साल में उन्होंने या उनके फैमिली बिजनेस से जुड़ी कंपनीज ने 2 बिलियन डॉलर की कमाई की है”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Trump's annual financial disclosure, released June 30, 2026 (days before the July 2 broadcast), reported roughly $2.2 billion in total income for 2025, driven largely by cryptocurrency and coin ventures co-founded by his family (meme coin, World Liberty Financial), alongside golf, licensing and settlement income. Multiple reputable outlets (Washington Post, PBS, CNBC, ABC, TIME) corroborate that he and family-linked companies earned about $2 billion in the prior year, matching the anchor's claim. The '$2 billion' figure is a slight rounding of the ~$2.2 billion disclosed, so the claim is substantively accurate.
