At 46 years old, Donald Trump has gained influence in politics and wealth by promoting his father’s Make America Great Again movement. He owns several businesses catered to conservatives, including a publishing company and a lucrative podcasting deal. According to Forbes, Trump’s net worth, which largely increased after his father’s political career, is estimated to be around $50 million as of January 6, 2021.
