Trump says his kids handle his investments
Donald Trump said his children are handling his investments, but he declined to say whether they are involved in his business dealings with foreign governments.
"My children are handling my investments," Trump told ABC News chief political correspondent Tom Llamas in an exclusive interview Tuesday.
"They're very good with investments."
When asked if his children are involved in his business dealings with foreign governments, Trump said, "I don't want to talk about that."
Trump's comments come as he faces increasing scrutiny over his business ties and potential conflicts of interest.
The president has refused to divest himself of his businesses, arguing that he has no conflicts of interest.
But critics say Trump's continued ownership of his businesses creates a conflict of interest, as it could influence his decision-making as president.
Trump has repeatedly said that his children are running his businesses, but he has not provided details about their specific roles or responsibilities.
In a statement, the White House said that Trump has taken "unprecedented steps" to separate himself from his businesses, including appointing his children to run them.
"The president has no conflicts of interest," the White House said.
"He has taken steps to ensure that his business dealings do not interfere with his duties as president."
