In a CNBC interview on Thursday, President Trump said he was unaware of crypto
investments that his latest financial disclosure shows generated about $1.2bn
for him last year. He said his business affairs are managed by his sons, naming
Eric as responsible, and that he did not know who handled the investments and
had not discussed them with Eric. Trump added the gains were not illegal and
said there is no practical requirement to recuse from every potential personal
conflict while running the country.
