For the Trump family, business is booming. Whereas the Trump Organization didn't do a single deal overseas in Donald Trump's first term as president, it did eight in the past year. It got more than double the money in four months selling Trump "meme" coins than it did in four years running a massive Washington hotel. And there are more potential conflicts as the family makes money investing in companies dependent on federal contracts and seeking taxpayer funded grants and loans. Some historians worry how Trump's approach might influence future holders of the office.

From crypto coins to bibles, overseas development deals to an upcoming line of cellphones, Trump family businesses have raked in hundreds of millions of dollars since his election. That flood of often shadowy money — from billionaires, foreign governments and cryptocurrency tycoons, all with interests before the federal government — has permitted the president to leverage the power of his office for personal gain unlike any of his predecessors.
