Trump bought more than $100 million in bonds since January, filings show
The purchases could let the president make money off companies and local entities that could be affected by his agenda.
President Donald Trump has purchased at least $103 million worth of corporate and municipal bonds since taking office in January, according to new filings from the Office of Government Ethics.
The documents, released late Tuesday night, show that Trump began the bond-buying spree one day after being sworn in on Jan. 20 and include debt sold by companies, local governments and entities that could be directly impacted by his sweeping agenda. All said, Trump made about 690 purchases from Jan. 21 through Aug. 1.
