Donald Trump Jr. defended President Trump’s reported $57.7 million earnings from the crypto firm World Liberty Financial. In an interview with NewsNation, he claimed his father doesn’t “touch it” and that it’s “walled off.” Trump Jr. said he and his brother, Eric Trump, manage the trust without involving their father, though Trump pledged to support cryptocurrency during his campaign. The decentralized finance platform was launched last year and has become a major income source for the Trump family.
