In October 2024, Trump is on the list of the 500 richest people in the world, as shares of his media startup grow along with his ratios in political betting markets before the US presidential election. Donald Trump's media startup lost more than $7 billion in value from a peak in May to a low in September before recovering $4 billion in less than a month. The rally has no fundamental driving force as Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. reported sales of just $1.6 million in the first six months. And its Truth Social platform has not surpassed one million daily active users in the past year.

Earlier, Trump's fortune after leaving the White House, as of November 2023, increased by $500 million. According to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, since 2021, the fortune of the former US president has grown to $3.1 billion.

Forrester predicts cyber crisis under Trump

In November 2016, analysts at Forrester Research predicted a cyber crisis for the United States after Donald Trump took office as president of the country. The politician himself said that tough measures need to be fought with hackers, but the new head of state has no specific plans yet.

In the months before the US presidential election, there were many hacker attacks and leaks of information related to the activities of candidates and the country's authorities. They even talked about the threat of disrupting voting by hackers, say Forrester researchers.

The wave of electoral victory gives new presidents public support to implement key initiatives conceived during their campaigns. However, the 45th president, assuming this position, will lose such a wave when faced with cybersecurity problems, the Forrester study says.

According to analysts, the cyber crisis under Donald Trump will last about 100 days from the moment of inauguration, which will take place on January 20, 2017. At the same time, experts note that this crisis would begin under any president.

Although Trump recognized the importance of combating cybercriminals, he did not announce the specific actions that he was going to take as president of the United States. Trump's website only published an article in which the head of state promises that his administration will consider all government ways of cyber defense and vulnerabilities.

We have to be very, very tough in cyber warfare. It's a huge problem. The issue of cyberspace security is very complex and perhaps difficult to solve, "Donald Trump said during one of the debates in September 2016.

Forrester predicts that hacking in healthcare will become as frequent as in the retail business, where the consequences of leaks have been catastrophic.^[1]

2018: Trump turns out to be a fan of Apple gadgets

On August 29, 2018, the Business Insider news portal reported that President Donald Trump is a fan of Apple gadgets. For example, the American leader uses an iPad for reading, although, according to the Twitter blog of ABC News employee Tara Palmeri, everything early calls him "that flat thing."

Trump rarely turns to a computer for help and mostly uses two, iPhone one specifically for news and Twitter communications, the other for phone calls. Before the election, Trump wrote on Twitter from an unsecured phone based on Android from. Samsung Given that the US president is 72 years old, he is just one of many seniors who prefer Apple gadgets: they weigh less than laptops, tend to be easier to use and easily allow you to increase the font size.

Despite the fact that Trump is not interested in technology, he actively accused Google of hiding some types of news about him. However, Google denied all the accusations. It is believed that the president himself does not use Google: New York Times correspondent Maggie Haberman wrote on Twitter that special workers are looking for news. Still, Trump has increasingly lashed out with accusations against big tech companies. Aside from Google, he is a frequent critic of Amazon, which he says uses the postal service for its own gain.

Trump has also been critical of Apple during the presidential campaign, but since he met with the company's CEO Tim Cook over dinner after the election, the president has swapped anger for mercy. Trump not only uses Apple gadgets, but also approved the company's intentions to invest hundreds of billions of dollars in the United States economy through supplier services and other expenses. In his speech in Pittsburgh, Trump noted that he personally thanked Tim Cook for his contribution to the development of the country.^[2]

A woman tried to infect Trump's computers with a USB flash drive with a virus

In early April 2019, it became known about the detention of a Taiwanese citizen who entered the residence of Donald Trump and tried to infect computers there with viruses through an external USB drive.

The 32-year-old convinced security guards at Mar Trump-Lago estate in Florida that she is a relative of one of the members of the private club and is going to use the pool.

Security officers let her in as her last name did match that of the listed person. Then the taika reached the reception, where it reported that to participate in the event of the Sino-American Association under the patronage of the  UN. However, no event was planned at Mar-a-Lago that day.

After that, the girl was detained, and during a search she found two passports, four cell phones, a laptop, a hard drive and a flash drive on which malware was stored. According to law enforcement agencies, the arrested woman had intentions to inject viruses into computers located in the residence.

During questioning, the detainee claimed her Chinese friend, named Charles, told her to attend a UN-sponsored event in Palm Beach to discuss Chinese-American international economic relations with someone in the US president's family. According to her, she communicated with Charles only through the WeChat messenger popular in China.

Investigators drew attention to the fact that the detainee spoke good English during interrogation, but when communicating with the guards of the estate, she pretended that she did not know this language.

In court, she was charged with making false statements, as well as illegal entry into a building or into a territory with limited access. She could face a prison term and a hefty fine. 

 On March 30, 2019, when the taika was detained at Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump was in Florida, but was absent from the estate at that moment.^[3]

Coronavirus infection

On October 2, 2020, Donald Trump announced that he and his wife Melania had contracted the COVID-19 coronavirus. The 74-year-old American president intends to continue working during the period of self-isolation.

Tonight, the first lady of the United States and I passed tests for coronavirus, [the result of which was] positive. We will immediately begin our quarantine and recovery process. We will go through this together! - wrote Trump on his Twitter blog.

Press Secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov said on October 2, 2020 that the Kremlin wishes the American leader to recover from COVID-19 as soon as possible.

According to the attending physician of the head of the White House, Sean Conley, "the president will continue to fulfill his duties without interruption during his recovery."

The president and the first lady are doing well at the moment, they plan to stay in the White House, Conley said in a written statement to spokesman Donald Trump. - You can have no doubt, I expect the president to continue performing his duties without any interruptions during his recovery.

It is assumed that Trump contracted a coronavirus infection from his adviser Hope Hicks, who today also reported positive test results for COVID-19. Collins claims that surrounded by the president, Hicks was aware of contacts with carriers of COVID-19 as early as October 1, but the White House continued to live an ordinary life.

CNN recalled that members of Trump's team did not wear masks, which could lead to the spread of infection. At the same time, during the debate, Trump and Biden maintained a social distance and refused to shake hands: in this regard, the president's rival from the Democrats is probably safe.

Trump, who is running for a second presidential term, has the next debate with Democratic candidate Joseph Biden scheduled for October 15, 2020.^[4][5]

Deutsche Bank wants to end its relationship with US President Donald Trump after the election

In early November 2020, it became known that bankers were tired of the information background that accompanies these loans.

Trump has $340 million in loans issued by the Trump Organization, which is controlled by his two sons. Three loans issued under Trump's ownership and payable after two years are personally guaranteed by the president. Bankers are thinking of selling loans in the secondary market, but this idea has not received support. It is not clear who will buy them.

If the Republican president loses and Democrats take control of the White House and Congress, then investigations against Trump could resume.

Trump sends COVID-19 testing devices to Vladimir Putin

Donald Trump spoke with Vladimir Putin seven times after leaving the White House, according to reports published in October 2024 before the US presidential election. A certain Bob Vudvord in his book claims that the ex-president also secretly sent Putin tests for Covid-19 for personal use.

The Kremlin confirmed that Trump, while in office, sent Covid-19 testing devices to Russian President Putin at the height of the pandemic. Dmitry Peskov said that the tests were sent, but denied the book's claim that the two leaders spoke on the phone several times after Trump left office.

"We also sent equipment at the beginning of the pandemic. But about telephone conversations - this is not true, "said Peskov.

For 4 years in the White House earned $2.4 billion

In July 2021, it became known that during Donald Trump's 4-year tenure as president of the United States, he was able to earn $2.4 billion. At the same time, he refused a salary of $400 thousand, which relied on him as head of state. The main sources of income in the period from January 2017 to December 2020, Trump cited Forbes magazine with reference to public documents.

The main earnings - $943 million - fell on golf projects (clubs and courses). Revenues of $781 million were received from commercial real estate. Donald Trump earned $466 million through licensing, management and hospitality. The sale of real estate brought him $110 million during the presidency.

During the pandemic, the traditional areas of his business did not suffer too much, but long periods of lockdowns fell on the fate of golf resorts. This led to the fact that the total revenues of his golf clubs and resorts fell by 27% to $190 million in 2020.

Judging by the published documents, in an office building in San Francisco at 555 California Street, in which Trump owns 30% of the assets, rents in 2020 increased from $42 million to $43 million. The same thing happened in a New York house at 1290 Avenue of the Americas, where Trump's earnings increased from $55 million to $58 million.

Trump became president, being a very well-off businessman with a solid portfolio of real estate assets. Despite the law ordering for the time of the highest state position to move away from business management, Trump is accused of not actually doing so. The apparent conflict of interest was another point of blame for the opponents of the former president. Formally, Trump transferred the assets to the management of two sons through the Donald J Trump Revocable Trust. At the same time, he said that, despite such tough conditions, part of the profit that he will receive from his hotels around the world will be mastered in the interests of the country.^[6]

2021

Blocking Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts

On January 6, 2021, Donald Trump's Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts were blocked after riots began at the Capitol.

In particular, Twitter demanded that the US president remove the last two posts. Only in this case will the account be unlocked after 12 hours. If Trump decides not to erase messages, the account will not be unlocked, the company said.

As the social network explained, this had to be done according to the rules of the service and against the background of an unprecedented and ongoing critical situation in Washington. There were serious riots near the Congress building and a large number of the president's supporters illegally entered the Capitol.

Facebook blocked Donald Trump's account for 24 hours. The page is available for viewing by other users, but the president himself is deprived of the opportunity to write messages.

Facebook, Instagram and YouTube promptly removed several of the latest videos with Trump's appeal, in which he against the background of unrest declares an incorrect counting of votes in the elections. The American leader also called on his supporters to go home.

 Facebook     said those who broke into the congressional building fall under the company's "dangerous individuals and organizations" policy, a term it uses for terrorists, mass murderers and hate groups.

Posts justifying the assault on the Capitol, according to Facebook, are propaganda of criminal activity that violates the platform's policies. Vice-presidents of the company Guy Rosen and Monica Bickert called the situation an emergency for the social network.^[7]

Events in the United States once again show the power of social networks as tools for influencing the masses. A few tweets - and a crowd storming the Capitol. We can say with a high degree of confidence that if the losing president had no independent access to a huge audience, these events would not have happened, "State Duma deputy Anton Gorelkin commented on the situation.

Failure of its own communication platform

In early May 2021, Donald Trump launched his own "communication platform." With its help, the former US president intended to communicate with his supporters. Why did the project fail? Read more here.

2022

Donald Trump's residence searched by FBI officials

On August 8, 2022, former US President Donald Trump said that FBI officers searched his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida and even broke into his safe.

The FBI raid relates to a request by the U.S. National Archives and Records FBI to review the transfer of presidential documents to Trump's Florida residence, including classified material. A source familiar with the matter told NBC News the search was related to classified information Trump allegedly took with him from the White House to a resort in Palm Beach in January 2021.

Trump's lawyer, Christina Bobb, said she was present at the search on August 8, 2022, she told NBC News, as well as the fact that Trump and his team collaborated with the FBI and the US Department of Justice at every turn, adding that the bureau did conduct an undeclared search and seized the papers.

Dark times have come for our nation as my beautiful home, Mar-A-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, being searched and occupied by a large group of FBI agents! After working and working with the relevant government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate. They even broke into my safe!, former US President Donald Trump said.

The Secret Service secured access to the residence but was not involved in any aspect of the search, the official said. A senior government official told NBC News the FBI had been at Mar-a-Largo for most of the day and confirmed the search warrant was linked to the U.S. National Archives.

Donald Trump himself was at the time of the search in New York. Due to the fact that the residence is now closed due to the too hot climate in Florida, the Trump family prefers to live in it in winter.^[8]

A few days later, it was announced that FBI had found 11 sets of classified documents in a search of Trump's estate. Trump could face prison sentence, The Wall Street Journal and Politico reported

Law enforcement officers found four packages with the stamp "top secret," three - with the stamp "secret," three more - confidential. Among those found is a profile of the "President of France."

"They could take it away anytime they wanted to -- and for a long time," Trump said. "All they had to do was ask. The biggest problem is the other, and what will they do with 33 million pages of documents, many of which are classified, that President Obama once took to Chicago. "

Removing the Truth Social application from the Play Store

In August 2022, Google removed Donald Trump's Truth Social app from the Play Store, citing 'insufficient moderation'. 'On August 19, we notified Truth Social of several violations of the standard policy [...] and confirmed that effective user content moderation systems are a condition for providing our services, "the company said.

FBI seizes Trump medical FBI over 40 years

In early September 2022, it became known that the FBI seized more than 11 thousand documents from the Mar-a-Lago residence of Donald Trump in Florida, including papers containing personal information of the former US president.

In a ruling released on September 1, 2022, U.S. District Judge Eileen Cannon of the Southern District of Florida said the FBI seized numerous documents, including Trump's medical records, accounting and tax records, in searches. The ruling granted Trump's request to appoint a special bailiff to review all documents seized during the search.

The ruling now prevents the Department of Justice (DoJ) from reviewing materials seized at the residence or using them in the investigation until a special bailiff completes its review. However, it does not prohibit the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) from reviewing whether any documents brought by Trump to Mar-a-Lago pose a risk to U.S. national security.

While Cannon did not specify how extensive the medical records were, a source familiar with the case said authorities have seized medical documents in at least 40 years.

On August 8, 2022, the FBI issued a search warrant for Trump's office and storage facilities at Mar-a-Lago. During the search, more than 11 thousand government documents and photographs were found, including 18 labeled "top secret," 54 labeled "secret," 31 labeled "confidential" and 11,179 others without a secrecy stamp.

In addition to the documents, the FBI found hundreds of printed news articles, a Time magazine cover depicting Trump in a gold frame and 48 empty folders marked as containing classified material. According to The New York Times, it is not known if documents placed in empty folders were found.^[9]

Lawsuit in court against CNN

Charge of forgery for deterrence ahead of 2024 presidential election

On April 4, 2023, for the first time since its foundation USA , a politician who previously served as president of the country, Republican Donald Trump, was arrested.

The politician is suspected of violating campaign finance rules.

According to investigators, Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen in 2016, just on the eve of the presidential election, paid $130 thousand to porn star Stormy Daniels, who was going to publicly talk about an affair that took place in 2006 with Trump. This would significantly spoil the reputation of the politician, so Daniels was persuaded to silence. Prosecutors considered the deal illegal campaign finance.

Back in December 2018, Cohen pleaded guilty and received three years in prison (he went under house arrest earlier). Now the investigation is trying to prove that the costs of the silence of the porn star were compensated by the election fund. Trump acknowledged reimbursing Cohen for the costs, but does not acknowledge that the funds were allocated from the fund.

On April 4, 2023, Donald Trump appeared at Manhattan Court, where he was indictedly arrested and read out on charges of falsifying business documents in order to conceal compromising evidence and illegal activities.

Falsification of business documents, as a rule, is classified only as a misdemeanor and does not entail criminal liability. However, the prosecutor's office may tighten the charge if it considers that the documents were forged in order to hide another crime.

For each count, Trump faces four years in prison.

After the politician declared his innocence on all 34 counts, the arrest was removed, the former president was released, and the next court session was scheduled for December 4, 2023.

As for the presidential race, the US constitution does not say anything about the impossibility of running for president if there are criminal charges. Moreover, Politico notes that the legal scandal has made Trump even more popular among Republicans.

Trump differs in that he managed to spoil relations with almost everyone, in a special bitterness with the media, but also the entire "progressive public" forming the agenda at this time.

They have no sympathy for Trump: the Greens, Wall St, the information sector, Hollywood, blacks, Mexicans, LGBT people and other "progressive" marginals. Forbes' list is 8 out of 10 against Trump.

Trump is viewed positively by: "traditionalists," conservatives, nationalists, industrialists, neftegaz and mostly workers, people of age ("babybumers" category), white workers and the middle class.

40 to 45% of the US electorate supports Trump, but he is a non-systemic odious madman, in a charismatic manner projecting the dreams of traditional America from the past - an America that has long been gone. For this, of course, he managed to find the support of the relevant groups of the population, Spydell Finance wrote.

On the other hand, 8 out of 10 representatives of the existing business elite do not support Trump and it is they who form the "deep state," pulling the levers, constructing the architecture of the modern United States.

The attack on Trump is politically motivated and directly related to the 2024 election. Criminal proceedings tie the hands of Trump and his team in the nomination, and the presidential race begins now. To the existing proceedings may be added the case of "storming the Capitol" or "not complying with the rules for working with classified documents."

Court convicts Trump of attempted rape of journalist Jean Carroll

• Conspiracy to defraud the government.
• Obstruction of official investigation.
• Conspiracy to obstruct the investigation.

For two of them, he faces up to five years in prison, for two more  - up to 20 .

Court in London rejects Trump's lawsuit against ex-MI6 agent related to dossier on ties to Russia

On February 1, 2024, a court in London rejected Trump's lawsuit related to the sensational dossier about his alleged ties to Russia.

In 2023, Trump sued former MI6 agent Christopher Steele and his business intelligence firm Orbis as part of a data protection case, saying he had suffered "significant damage and suffering" as a result of the dossier's release. He sought a judge's ruling that the allegations in the report were false.

Steele's dossier thundered around the world when BuzzFeed reported in January 2017 that the presidential campaign had been compromised by the Russian security service.

Judge Karen Steen dismissed the lawsuit, saying Trump had no prospect of receiving compensation for the suffering he suffered. She said she would not determine the credibility of the dossier itself.

"In reality, the plaintiff is seeking the court to protect his reputation in an environment where he has failed to articulate any effective remedy he could realistically obtain," the judge said.

Trump, who already faces several criminal trials in the United States, previously said in court documents that he was ready to come to London to testify in this case. It's part of a strategy to tie court sessions with his campaign, using the former president's charges of 91 crimes, including charges of conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election, to support and donate from loyal supporters.

Steele, whom Trump once called a "nonentity," was hired by a Washington-based research firm in June 2016 to study Trump's ties to Russia. The Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton's campaign hired Fusion GPS after Trump emerged as a contender for president.

Lawyers for Steele's firm argued that the lawsuit had no reasonable prospect of success and that Trump was simply carrying out a "vendetta." Trump has a track record of "going after perceived enemies and other people on whom he harbored malice," the Orbis lawyers said.

Russian billionaires Mikhail Fridman and Peter Aven previously successfully sued Steele in a lawsuit to protect the information, but the libel lawsuit filed by another wealthy Russian failed.

Orbis said the dossier was never intended to be made public, and Trump cannot hold the firm responsible for the Buzzfeed publication itself.

New York court finds Trump guilty in civil fraud case

A court in New York found ex-US President Trump guilty in a civil fraud case. The allegations involved him forging financial records to obtain loans and insurance at better rates.

A judge barred the former president from doing business in the state for three years and ordered the return of $364 million in illegal profits.

The Trump Organization and his two eldest sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, were also found guilty and barred from holding company executive positions in New York for two years.

Presentation of own brand of sneakers T

On February 17, 2024, Donald Trump unveiled a new line of branded shoes at Sneaker Con, an event that calls itself "The Greatest Sneaker Show on Earth!"

Gold shoes are sold under the name "The Never Surrender High-Tops" for $399 on the new site, which also sells Trump-branded cologne and perfume "Victory47" for $99 per bottle.

Trump's appearance was met with wild cries from his opponents and chants of "USA!" from supporters who attended the event wearing Trump clothing. Some held placards that read "SNEAKERHEADS LOVE TRUMP."

Falsification of documents for settlements for sex with a porn actress. The court for the first time in the history of the United States found the ex-head of state guilty of a criminal offense

On May 31, 2024, a jury in Manhattan Criminal Court (New York) found Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump guilty of all 34 counts relating to falsification of financial records. This was the first time in the history of the United States when the ex-head of state was accused of a criminal offense.

According to investigators, in 2006, Trump entered into an intimate relationship with porn actress Stephanie Clifford. In 2016, a few days before the election, lawyer Michael Cohen paid the woman $130 thousand in exchange for a non-disclosure agreement. Trump later reimbursed Cohen, adding a tax-offset bonus to her and disguising it as legal fees. The total amount of 11 checks signed by him amounted to $420 thousand.

Trump is now left to expect a sentence to be handed down on July 11. The politician faces 4 years in prison for each count, which together amounts to 136 years in prison. However, in fact, he is likely to get off with a large fine - according to local norms, citizens who first violated the law under the articles imputed to Trump usually do not go to prison.

Trump will not be prevented from participating in the elections by the criminal sentence, since the US constitution does not contain such restrictions. However, even if Trump does not go to prison, he will inevitably face serious financial problems. And this is a really heavy blow to his election campaign - according to statistics in the United States, it is the politician who often wins with more funds at his disposal for the presidential race.
