According to financial disclosure documents released by the White House last Friday, US President Trump purchased bonds from Netflix and the Discovery Channel on December 12th and 16th. The Discovery Channel merged with WarnerMedia in 2022 to form Warner Bros. Discovery. Trump's investment in these bonds ranged from $1 million to $2 million. This portion only accounts for a small percentage of his total disclosed investments, which are approximately $100 million, with most of it going towards municipal bonds. A White House official, who requested anonymity, disclosed that Trump's investment decisions are not made by him personally. The official stated, "Trump's stock and bond investments are independently managed by a third-party financial institution. Neither the president himself nor any member of his family has the authority to provide directions, influence, or offer opinions on the allocation or timing of investments in the portfolio."
