Donald Trump's financial disclosures for 2025 reveal a lucrative year, with the former president earning millions by licensing his name and signature for a variety of products. A luxury monograph, "Save America," alone generated $1.8 million. Bibles bearing Trump's name brought in $208,000, while sneakers and perfumes, including the "Victory 47" women's fragrance priced at $249, collectively earned $67,000. A limited edition "American Eagle" guitar, marketed to MAGA supporters, added another $36,000 to his coffers.

Meanwhile, former First Lady Melania Trump also saw substantial earnings. A documentary film about her, produced by Amazon, generated $10.7 million. The film, which chronicled the period leading up to Trump's second presidential inauguration, had a production cost of $40 million and grossed $7 million at the box office. Melania Trump further profited from selling NFTs, earning six million dollars, and her autobiography, "Melania," added $520,000.

The extensive financial report, spanning 927 pages, also highlights Trump's significant engagement with the cryptocurrency market, with over a billion dollars in related revenue. The disclosures also detail 21,285 stock transactions conducted throughout 2025. Among the companies traded was the tech giant Nvidia, whose chips are considered crucial for artificial intelligence development. Nvidia recently became the first publicly traded company to reach a $5 trillion market valuation and has been central to U.S.-China trade and security competition.
