Trump dismissed those concerns, insisting others manage his investments and that he is not directly involved in the decisions. <\/p>\n<p>The episode highlights how closely politics and crypto have become intertwined, with digital asset companies reportedly <a href=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/news\/crypto-companies-spent-2026-us-election-cycle-public-citizen\">pouring roughly $189 million<\/a> into the 2026 election cycle to influence regulation.<\/p>\n<figure><img alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-images.ctmedia.io\/media\/content\/screenshot-1541.png\" width=\"896\" height=\"511\" data-original=\"https:\/\/s3-images.ctmedia.io\/media\/content\/screenshot-1541.png\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\/><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Trump interviews CNBC&#8217;s Joe Kernen.
