Last May,<\/span> President Trump held an \u201cintimate\u201d dinner at his members-only golf club in Virginia for the top-220 investors in $TRUMP, a meme coin he launched days before the start of his second term that, by the end of 2025, would generate $636 million for him. About 100 protesters gathered outside in rain jackets, baseball caps, and muddy sneakers to confront the dinner guests arriving in shiny dress shoes, tuxedos, and black Cadillac SUVs. They pointed to the dinner as the encapsulation of the troublesome grift of Trump\u2019s second term: trading personal access to the president in exchange for cash and funneling money to a Trump-owned property. \u201cThis is like the Mount Everest of corruption,\u201d Senator Jeff Merkley of Oregon, a Democrat, said that night, standing before a crowd spotted with signs reading GRIFTER IN CHIEF<\/span> and DON THE CON<\/span>.<\/p>\n

But a year later, when Trump hosted the winners of the second iteration of the so-called crypto contest at a luncheon gala in Mar-a-Lago in Florida, no large group of protesters greeted the attendees. The private Florida resort is a logistically more challenging location for a protest than a golf club 45 minutes from downtown Washington. But the ever intensifying rush of ethics concerns had also made the crypto contest fade into the background, even for activists who closely follow each allegation. The Mar-a-Lago edition of the feast didn\u2019t make headlines the way the first had done. \u201cI think maybe it is because people have become more inured to some of what was going on, and it wasn\u2019t breaking through in the same way,\u201d Lisa Gilbert, a co-president of Public Citizen, a consumer-rights group that helped organize the protest last year, told me. \u201cAs profiteering becomes the norm, it\u2019s harder to explain why it\u2019s outrageous.\u201d<\/p>\n

Washington\u2019s ethics watchdog groups thought they were prepared for Trump\u2019s second term. During his first four years in the White House, they had quickly learned which possible misuses of taxpayer funds to focus on, which apparent case of profiteering off the presidency to anchor a report around, and which allegations of nepotism or self-dealing to try to pitch to journalists as worthy of a story. Most such allegations frequently generated shock and anger, and some of Trump voters found that they were outraged at several of his Cabinet secretaries for spending millions in taxpayer dollars on first-class air travel and personal security, or Trump\u2019s family businesses making millions while he was in office. Sometimes, the backlash prompted accountability: Three of Trump\u2019s Cabinet members were forced out, lawmakers from both parties launched inquiries into alleged ethics violations, and top officials reimbursed the government for travel originally paid for by taxpayers.<\/p>\n

This term, the watchdogs are even more alarmed by what they\u2019re witnessing, and they are racing to keep up. Public Citizen added litigators and researchers, and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) hired an expert in cryptocurrency. Last year, the Campaign Legal Center filed its highest number of ethics complaints in a single year and launched a tracker of \u201ccorrupt transactions\u201d to ensure that \u201cthe exhaustion factor\u201d doesn\u2019t get in the way of keeping a careful count of such instances, even if the media no longer closely cover each one, Saurav Ghosh, the group\u2019s director of federal-campaign-finance reform, told me.<\/p>\n

That doesn\u2019t mean the public has grown indifferent. Although polls show that voters have long considered most politicians to be corrupt, a recent survey by Echelon Insights found that the share of Americans who see corruption as the biggest issue facing the nation is now 17 percent, up from 8 percent in December 2024. But there has also been a dampening of objections to possible instances of self-dealing, especially among Republicans, and the examples of accountability are scarce.<\/p>\n

Within a few days of the inauguration last year, the administration had fired 17 inspectors general, dismantling oversight of taxpayer funds, quid-pro-quo business ventures, and ethics-law violations. The president made roughly $2.2 billion last year, according to The New York Times<\/em>, a windfall that came mostly from cryptocurrency deals, a new source of income that now forms the bulk of his net worth at a time when his administration has made eroding crypto oversight part of its economic agenda. He also booked up to $117 million in legal settlements, mostly with major tech and media companies, and $125 million from foreign golf and real-estate deals\u2014roughly twice the revenue generated from such deals in 2017. The president has also made more than 21,000 securities trades, often in quick bursts tied to market-moving moments he sparked, according to a Bloomberg<\/em> analysis. His sons\u2019 portfolio of defensive-technology companies, meanwhile, has collectively generated more than $3 billion in direct government business since Eric and Donald Trump Jr. made their investments, The Washington Post<\/em> found.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the big difference in this term is just how blatant all of it is. In the first term, there was at least a head nod towards Trump as president being separate from Trump the businessman,\u201d Jordan Libowitz, a spokesperson for CREW, told me. \u201cNow that\u2019s gone.\u201d<\/p>\n

The White House sees things differently. Anna Kelly, a White House spokesperson, told me in an email that the allegations of corruption are \u201cthe same, tired narrative that Democrats have pushed against President Trump, his family, and his administration for a decade.\u201d She said that the president\u2019s assets are \u201cheld in fully discretionary accounts managed by independent third-party financial institutions\u201d and that he has no conflicts of interest.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s hard to deny the shift in scale from Trump\u2019s previous four years in office. One of the many examples of how much has changed: In the fall of 2019, the administration announced that the G7 summit would be held at Trump\u2019s golf club in Doral, Florida, which alarmed not just watchdog groups but also Republican lawmakers who didn\u2019t think the president should award his own company a government contract. Two days later, Trump retreated and blamed \u201cMedia & Democrat Crazed and Irrational Hostility\u201d for his reversal.<\/p>\n

This March, the Doral golf club played host to the Shield of the Americas summit, a gathering of Latin American and Caribbean leaders to discuss combatting drug cartels. Trump has announced that the G20 summit later this year will be held at the same hotel because it\u2019s \u201cthe best location\u201d for the job. The reaction from GOP members of Congress to the news ranged from silent to \u201cthrilled.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many of the major ethics scandals<\/span> of Trump\u2019s term seem almost quaint: Housing Secretary Ben Carson, or possibly his wife, spent $31,000 on a dining set. Ivanka Trump endorsed Goya beans. EPA Secretary Scott Pruitt spent $43,000 to install a phone booth.<\/p>\n

What seemed to generate a drumbeat of headlines then was the cost of Trump\u2019s travel, especially to his own properties. Although Trump had once ridiculed President Obama for taking a 2012 vacation that cost \u201ctaxpayers millions of dollars,\u201d he often traveled several times a month to his private properties in Florida and New Jersey. Less than two months into his first term, The Washington Post<\/em> reported that Trump had spent nearly one of every three days in office at one of his own properties. A Government Accountability Office found that the president\u2019s four trips to Mar-a-Lago in one month of 2017 cost taxpayers a total of $13.6 million.<\/p>\n

A year and a half into his second term, Trump has made 270 visits to his properties, marking a 14 percent jump compared with the same point in his first term, according to the CREW tracker (which updates daily). Trump\u2019s taxpayer tab for golfing trips hit $70 million last fall, HuffPost<\/em> calculated. If he continues golfing and traveling at the current pace, the analysis showed, this term will run taxpayers $300 million\u2014twice what they paid during his first term. Those costs include protecting the president and his family; the Secret Service spent nearly $100,000 at Trump-owned properties in the first five months of the second term.<\/p>\n

A related category of recurring stories from the first term concerned Trump\u2019s Cabinet members and their questionable taxpayer-funded travel. In the fall of 2017, Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price became the administration\u2019s first Cabinet member forced to resign following outcry over his use of public funds for work trips in private jets. Veterans Affairs Secretary David Shulkin\u2019s firing followed after, among other things, the public learned of a taxpayer-funded trip to the United Kingdom he\u2019d taken with his wife. Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke left the administration in 2018 following several scandals involving misuse of government-funded travel, including to Dallas and the Virgin Islands. And Pruitt, the EPA secretary, faced scrutiny over repeated trips home to Tulsa and abroad on the taxpayers\u2019 dime. In Trump\u2019s second term, the focus of outrage is rarely the trips themselves, but rather what happens on them\u2014for example, FBI Director Kash Patel\u2019s taxpayer-funded trip to Hawaii, where he went on a \u201cVIP snorkel\u201d at a Pearl Harbor memorial, and his trip to Milan for the Olympics, during which he was filmed drinking in the locker room with the U.S. men\u2019s hockey team.<\/p>\n

One of the many scandals surrounding Kristi Noem when she led the Department of Homeland Security involved a $70 million jet supposedly intended for high-profile deportations, as well as the purchase of two luxury planes for $172 million. Her replacement, Markwayne Mullin, uses one of the planes to fly home to Oklahoma most weekends, and the department says he picks up the bill, although they won\u2019t provide details on how that\u2019s calculated. Another is reportedly being used by Melania Trump.<\/p>\n

Yet another category of ethical issues that has gained relatively little notice is the volume of merchandise being sold by the president and those in his orbit. In February 2017, a weekslong controversy followed Kellyanne Conway, then a top aide to Trump, promoting Ivanka Trump\u2019s clothing line during a Fox & Friends<\/em> appearance. Conway faced bipartisan accusations of violating a statute that prohibits federal employees from using \u201ctheir public office for their own private gain,\u201d including through \u201cthe endorsement of any product, service, or enterprise.\u201d The Republican chair of the House Oversight Committee pushed for a prompt review of Conway\u2019s statements, including possible disciplinary action.<\/p>\n

Now brand promotion and trademarked gear have become so ubiquitous in the White House that the Oval Office study\u2014a small room that past presidents have used for tasks such as reviewing speech drafts and making calls\u2014has been transformed into a shrine for baseball caps and collectibles emblazoned with MAGA<\/span>, Gulf of America<\/span>, and TRUMP 2028<\/span>. Officials throughout the administration are known to enjoy self-branded merchandise (maybe Patel most ardently). This past spring, the Trump Organization applied for a trademark for \u201cTrump 250\u201d images to allow the president to profit from clothing or knickknack sales tied to America\u2019s 250th birthday. The Trump Organization\u2019s flagship store launched 168 new products in time for Trump\u2019s second Inauguration Day, according to a count by CREW. Truth Social, Trump\u2019s primary form of communication with the public, is his own company as well\u2014meaning that anyone who wants to hear directly from the president must do so on an app where their clicks and page views generate ad revenue for Trump. (Many of those ads are for his own products.) The company recently launched a service selling to Wall Street early access to the president\u2019s digital communications, which frequently move markets.<\/p>\n

But perhaps the most significant category of self-dealing allegations is the one with no first-term analogue. A few days before Trump\u2019s second inauguration, an Emirati royal backed a deal to purchase a 49 percent stake in World Liberty Financial, the Trump family\u2019s primary crypto venture, for half a billion dollars. The deal, reportedly signed by Eric Trump, included $187 million up front and at least $31 million set to go toward entities linked to the family of Steve Witkoff, a lead Middle East negotiator for the administration and a co-founder of the crypto firm. A majority of the wealth that Trump has amassed this term, according to financial disclosures, comes from his family\u2019s cryptocurrency businesses. World Liberty Financial applied for a national-trust bank charter in January and is expected to receive permission to operate like a bank in the near future, NOTUS<\/em> reported this summer, a move that could give executives yet another way to direct money toward the president.<\/p>\n

For Trump\u2019s birthday, in June, a bloody spectacle arrived on the White House South Lawn, courtesy of UFC Freedom 250; World Liberty Financial was an \u201cofficial partner,\u201d and fighters were paid bonuses in \u201cstablecoins,\u201d cryptocurrency issued by the company. The Trump family also used the fight as an opportunity to sell physical silver and gold coins\u2014some priced as high as $12,000\u2014featuring Trump\u2019s face and purportedly \u201cdesigned by President Trump\u201d through a collaboration between UFC and the Trump Organization. The Public Integrity Project, a legal nonprofit, sued to try to stop the event, calling it \u201ca volcano of corruption,\u201d but failed. Several other groups, including CREW and Public Citizen, raised questions and condemned the festivities. But the fights continued as planned.<\/p>\n
