Investment accounts owned by President Donald Trump engaged in more than 300 previously undisclosed stock purchases on April 8, 2025, one day ahead of his surprise announcement that he would pause a number of his “Liberation Day” tariffs, according to Trump’s annual financial disclosure report.
That’s about as insider as insider trading can get. Inside one person: himself.
The president has consistently denied that his private sector ventures pose a conflict of interest with his role as president, even as he and his family have plunged into a wide variety of businesses that have reaped billions of dollars in returns for them.
Trump consistently says whatever he feels like saying. He’s a chronic, prolific liar. What he denies or doesn’t deny is so much dandelion fluff.
