Claim
Trump earned $52 million from foreign licensing deals.
“विदेशी लाइसेंसिंग डील से 52 मिलियन कमाए”▶ Watch source segment
Rationale
Trump's 2025 personal financial disclosure, released by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics on June 30–July 1, 2026 (just before the broadcast), showed approximately $52 million earned from licensing the Trump name to foreign property developers, primarily in the Middle East (Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE) with additional deals in Vietnam, Romania, India, Indonesia and elsewhere. Multiple reputable outlets independently report the ~$52 million foreign-licensing figure, so the anchor's claim matches the documented record. The figure is sometimes rounded up to nearly $60 million when all foreign licensing categories are combined, but $52 million is a well-supported representation of the foreign licensing income.
