69% of US voters are concerned about corruption and conflicts of interest in the Trump administration, -. Financial Times.

Almost half of those who voted for Trump in 2024. At the same time, about half of all registered voters believe that during his second term as president, the problem of corruption became more acute than during previous administrations. These are the results of the FT and Focaldata survey.

Dissatisfaction raises the cost of living. 56% of respondents said their financial situation has worsened since Trump returned to the White House. More than a quarter had to cut back on essential products, including groceries or medical care.

54% place most of the responsibility for the high prices on the Trump administration or the Republicans in Congress. More than 40% claim that the price increase made them more likely to vote for Democrats in the midterm elections.

Against this background, as the FT notes, members of the president's family have earned at least $1 billion from cryptocurrency projects. Some donors close to the family benefited from policy changes, others from government districts.
